Nurse Practitioner Models
Victorian Nurse Practitioner Project provides funding to public health services to identify models of care/services for NPs; to appoint NP candidates and to support them in preparing for endorsement.
Read about how some health services are creating NP models of care below.
The health services proposed model of care and 5 year implementation plans are available here as a resource for others considering how to implement NPs. Note: the models and plans reflect the initial implementation and scope and may change over time. The views expressed in the plans are those of the individual health services.
