Benefits and challenges of nurse prescribing 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
BACKGROUND: Since 1999, all health visitors and district nurses in the United Kingdom (UK) have received additional education to permit their registration as independent prescribers from a limited list of medicinal products. Little research has investigated how more than 20 000 health visitor and district nurse prescribers have implemented their new role since the evaluation of the pilot sites. AIMS: The aims of the study were to describe prescribing practices of health visitors and district nurses, the factors (contextual and professional) which enable and facilitate nurse prescribing, and views about the Nurse Prescribers' Formulary. METHOD: A mail survey was conducted of all health visitors and district nurses working in three trusts in southern England. A 74% response rate was achieved (n = 91). FINDINGS: Most respondents prescribed less than three times a week, with district nurses prescribing significantly more than health visitors (P = 0.001). Over two-thirds of the sample found nurse prescribing at least moderately helpful to their professional role and over four-fifths reported that they were more than moderately confident nurse prescribers. A range of information sources was identified as helpful, regarding both new products and for continuing educational needs. Over two-thirds reported that the current Nurse Prescribers' Formulary did not cover their prescribing needs, and a number of factors were identified as hindering prescribing. Most respondents said that their general practitioner/primary care team was at least moderately supportive of their prescribing role. LIMITATIONS: The survey was conducted in three primary care trusts in southern England, which may be unrepresentative of trusts elsewhere in UK. CONCLUSIONS: The level of reported prescribing by health visitors and district nurses in this study indicates that they are not acting as substitute prescribers for general practitioners of the products in the limited formulary. Implementation of a major role change such as nurse prescribing requires a number of conditions, including adequate education/preparation, a formulary that meets practitioners' needs, and acceptance by the practitioners themselves. 相似文献

Even though the introduction of the role of the nurse prescriber promises improved access to medicines and increased flexibility in the workforce, the take-up of this role to date has been variable across the UK. This questionnaire-based study sought to compare the expectations of two distinct groups of nurses, one from a mental health and the other from a non-mental health background prior to becoming prescribers. Non-mental health nurses were of the opinion that being able to prescribe would increase efficiency and maximize resources, while mental health nurses saw prescribing primarily in terms of the benefits to clients--increased choice, improved access to care, better information about treatments and better quality of care. 相似文献

Title. Nurse independent prescribing and nurse supplementary prescribing practice: national survey Aim. This paper is a report of a survey to provide an overview of nurse independent prescribing and nurse supplementary prescribing across the United Kingdom. Background. Evidence examining the frequency of prescribing by nurses is conflicting, and it is evident that several factors hamper prescribing practice. As of May 2006, legislative changes gave appropriately qualified nurses virtually the same independent prescribing right as doctors. However, there is currently no evidence available about the prescribing practices of these nurses. Method. A random sample of 1992 qualified Nurse Independent/Nurse Supplementary Prescribers registered with the Nursing and Midwifery Council was sent a postal questionnaire in 2006. A total of 1400 (70%) questionnaires were returned, of which 1377 were completed. Findings. Eight hundred and ninety‐one (65%) respondents worked in primary care, and 333 (24·3%) worked in secondary care. Three quarters of the sample had more than 5‐year clinical experience in the area in which they prescribed prior to entering the prescribing programme. One thousand one hundred and seven (87%) participants had used nurse independent prescribing and 568 (44·6%) nurse supplementary prescribing. Restriction of local arrangements, implementation of the Clinical Management Plan and access to doctors hampered or prevented prescribing. Conclusion. The adoption of prescribing by nurses in the United Kingdom has increased patient choice with regard to access to medicines. A number of factors which hamper or prevent prescribing require further exploration. 相似文献

Decision making: the context of nurse prescribing 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

From October 1994 qualified district nurses and health visitors from eight demonstration sites in England have been able to prescribe from a limited list of formulary items. Data collected from nurses formed only one part of the evaluation of nurse prescribing. These data highlighted a number of areas where prescribing nurses were faced with difficult decisions. A number of authors have considered how both doctors and nurses make decisions, and the factors which may influence the decision making process. With reference to the literature this paper focuses on the findings related to decision making in the context of nurse prescribing. 相似文献

Aim. To examine the prescribing practices of independent extended nurse prescribers for patients with skin conditions. Background. Nurse‐led services are one means of improving healthcare provision for dermatology patients. The advent of nurse prescribing should optimize the role of the nurse in these situations. Medicines for skin conditions constitute a significant category within the Nurse Prescribers Extended Formulary. The impact and activity of independent extended nurse prescribing for patients with skin disease has yet to be evaluated. Methods. A convenience sample of 638 qualified independent extended nurse prescribers self completed a written questionnaire. spss and splus were used for data entry and analysis. Results. The majority of nurses (89·7%) were based in primary care and worked in general practice. Four hundred and seventy‐six (75%) participants held a degree level qualification or higher. Forty‐four (6·9%) held a diploma, degree or master's level module/s in dermatology, 433 (67·9%) had undertaken study day/s in dermatology. Five hundred and sixty (87·8%) had more than 10 years postregistration nursing experience. A significantly broader range of skin conditions, and more items for these conditions, were prescribed by nurses with higher academic qualifications, nurses with specialist dermatology training (i.e. a diploma, degree or master's level module in dermatology or dermatology study days), nurses over 45 years and nurses in general practice. A small number of nurses felt unconfident in their prescribing practice. Conclusion. The majority of nurses treating skin conditions work in general practice, are highly qualified, and have a wealth of clinical experience. Nurses’ dermatology training is inconsistent A small number of nurses feel unconfident in their prescribing practice. Relevance to clinical practice. Nurses prescribing for skin conditions must be provided with appropriate dermatological training in order to treat the enormous numbers of patients with skin conditions treated in primary care. 相似文献

Non-medical nurse prescribing in the UK continues to evolve with new legislative frameworks. Studies evaluating patterns of prescribing by nurses remain scarce. This secondary data analysis of national prescribing data investigated the prescribing behaviours of community-based nurses and general practitioners (GPs), using constipation as a case study. Currently, 37 683 registered nurses, midwives and health visitors are qualified to independently prescribe in the UK; however, only 16.6% of nurses prescribed items for constipation. Prescribing practices differed between nurses employed by primary care trusts (PCTs) and general practice, between nurses and GPs, and across regions. PCT-employed nurses undertook 83% of nurse prescribing although activity increased steadily among general practice-employed nurses. Pharmacological treatment choices differed between nurses and GPs. Over 60% of all nurses predominantly prescribed from one class of laxative compared with a wider range prescribed by GPs. The extent, impact and outcomes of medical prescribing need further study. 相似文献

Supplementary nurse prescribing holds the key to rapid developments in psychiatric nursing and the care received by patients. In this paper, the origins, context and research data on nurse prescribing are reviewed, as a backdrop to a discussion on potential application of supplementary prescribing in a number of mental health settings. We describe a number of practice settings where nurse prescribing could be implemented, and argue that given service changes and informative educational preparation, access to care and user experience of that care will be enhanced. We conclude the paper by reviewing a number of clinical, organizational and research factors important for the success of nurse prescribing. 相似文献
