Description
With passage of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) and the
publication of the Institute of Medicine’s report on the future of nursing, nurses are slated to take on an expanded role in primary healthcare delivery in the near future. Nurse practitioners, in particular, will be instrumental in filling the gap in primary care
availability engendered by the increasing specialization of physician practice and
increased access to healthcare made possible by the provisions of the PPACA.
The need for this study was identified through gaps in the literature related to nurse practitioner practice; specifically, the paucity of quantitative research regarding
patients’ perspectives of core holistic nursing values in nurse practitioner care, and, since nursing care is by definition and tradition holistic in nature, this inquiry attempted to quantify the degree to which nurse practitioner care upholds and preserves core holistic nursing values.
