In the wake of recent government policies and legislation, practice nursing has undergone major changes. Not least of these has been the rapid growth in the number of practice nurses. In addition, their work role has grown greatly over recent years. This has given rise to the question of whether their professional development now justifies their status as autonomous nurse practitioners. This and related issues are explored in the empirical part of this paper, which focuses on the changes in the work and responsibilities of practice nurses in two industrial towns in the English Midlands.
随着近期政府政策和立法的出台，执业护士领域发生了重大变化。其中最显著的变化之一是执业护士数量的迅速增长。此外，近年来他们的工作职责也大幅增加。这就引发了一个问题，即他们目前的专业发展是否足以证明其作为自主执业护士的地位。本文的实证部分将探讨这一问题及相关问题，该部分聚焦于英格兰中部两个工业城镇执业护士工作和职责的变化。
