Attitudes toward the expanded role of nurse practitioners in primary care (family practice nurses) have been determined for persons from a semirural area who chose as their principal souce of care an interdisciplinary family medical centre (FMC) incorporating two nurse practitioners, and those for whom the FMC was not the usual source of care. Data were obtaine using"before-and-after" structured interviews of a random sample of persons living in a southern Ontario township. Slowly evolving, nonsignificant trends of greater acceptance were observed among patiens who had dealth with family practice nurses. The greatest change observed was an increased acceptance of the nnurse by FMC users as the person who would be contacted as a second choice if theirfirst choice, usually a physician, could not be reached in specific worrry-inducing situations. FMC users depended more on nurses to provide information. A conclusion of increased general acceptance of the family practive nurse by FMC users is supported by a 34 per cent higher use of nurses by FMC patients compared to other persons of comparable characteristics living in the same community.
对于来自半农村地区的人群，研究确定了他们对执业护士在初级保健（家庭执业护士）中扩大角色的态度。这些人选择了一家跨学科家庭医疗中心（FMC）作为主要医疗服务来源，该中心有两名执业护士；同时也研究了那些不将FMC作为常规医疗服务来源的人群的态度。数据是通过对安大略省南部一个乡镇的随机抽样人群进行“前后”结构化访谈获得的。在与家庭执业护士打过交道的患者中，观察到了缓慢演变的、不太显著的更大接受度趋势。观察到的最大变化是，FMC的使用者越来越接受护士作为在特定引发担忧的情况下，如果他们通常首选的医生无法联系到时的第二选择联系人。FMC的使用者更多地依赖护士提供信息。与居住在同一社区的具有可比特征的其他人相比，FMC患者对护士的使用率高出34%，这支持了FMC使用者对家庭执业护士总体接受度增加的结论。
