What Does a Nurse Practitioner Do? 🩺✨⁠
⁠
Nurse Practitioners (NPs) are highly trained healthcare professionals who bridge the gap between nurses and doctors, providing expert care with a patient-centered approach. They can diagnose illnesses, prescribe medications, develop treatment plans, and even perform certain procedures.⁠
⁠
Have questions about what an NP can do for you? Drop them below! ⬇️ ⁠

Are you an AUNP member? ⁠
⁠
Have you considered being a member of the NPAA? ⁠
⁠
It's valuable to be part of both associations! The NPAA is a professional association that advocates for overarching legislative changes for improved patient care by all NPs in Alberta, regardless of where or how they practice. ⁠
⁠
The AUNP represents NPs employed by Alberta Health Services and Covenant Health, working in acute, primary, and continuing care and mental health and addictions. ⁠
⁠
The NPAA is working closely with the AUNP to continue to advance NP practice within our respective spheres. We are thankful for the continued collaboration with our key stakeholders, like the AUNP.⁠

If you or someone you know are encountering barrie

If you or someone you know are encountering barriers with your NPs ability to complete insurance forms or having claims denied, then legislative barriers are to blame. ⁠
⁠
Nurse Practitioners have full-scope primary care practice, which includes college endorsement to complete these forms. Outdated legislation and red tape are preventing this service by NPs. ⁠
⁠
The Government of Alberta needs to hear from patients to understand the impact on patient care before the spring sitting of the legislature; starting at the end of February. Send your letter today!⁠
⁠
Please find a templated letter ready to be sent to your MLA at https://1in4albertans.com/contact. Further details about the needed legislative changes can be found on our website. https://albertanps.com/for-the-public/mla-advocacy/ {click on link in bio)⁠

The Nurse Practitioner Association of Alberta respectfully acknowledges that our members live and work in the traditional territories of Indigenous people who have inhabited this land for over 500 generations. We respect and honour the treaties of Alberta including treaties 4, 6, 7, 8, and 10 that encompass the travelling routes, gathering places and meeting grounds for Indigenous peoples from over 45 First Nations communities and 8 Metis settlements.

As health care professionals, we look to the teachings of the medicine wheel that show us how the land provides all the requirements for mental, physical, spiritual, and emotional well-being. We acknowledge the land that provides for us, and we recognise, honour, and give thanks to the stewards of the land who continue to teach us how to care for each other, ourselves, and this beautiful land that we share and call home.
