“This text reflects the historical journey of advanced practice nursing through a Canadian lens. An incredible resource for health care stakeholders, government decision-makers, health historians, nurse educators, and advanced practice nursing students, many whom have lived the history and/or championed the future of advanced practice in Canada. A gift to future advanced practitioners across the country.”
—Terri Kean, RN, MN, NP, PhD(c), Assistant Professor, Faculty of Nursing, University of Prince Edward Island
“This book highlights the central foundations relating to APN in Canada, namely its history, its skills, its hopes, and its challenges. This second edition grafts a Quebec perspective, which turns out to be an essential part of the Canadian portrait of advanced practice. It responds directly to the need for clarification of roles in APN by addressing them through case studies. This text is highly recommended for understanding the practical deployment of the roles of nurse practitioners and clinical nurse specialists in Canada.”
—Annie Rioux-Dubois, Inf., IP en SSP (Ont.), PhD, Professor, Department of Nursing, Université du Québec en Outaouais
“What a fantastic read! This book not only provides a highly inclusive approach in understanding APN roles in Canada and their contributions but also is a call to harness the potential of nursing leaders of the future. The topics covered are so comprehensive and come at such an important time for APNs in Canada from the most recognized leaders in the field. This will continue to be a seminal and influential book for those wanting to become APNs, for APNs themselves, and for leaders grappling with understanding APN roles and how they so fundamentally contribute positively to the health care system in Canada. Well done!”
—Natasha Prodan-Bhalla, DNP, NP(A), RN, Chief Nurse and Professional Practice Officer, Ministry of Health, British Columbia
