Advanced Nursing Practice is a topical and emergent area of developing health practice, but as an area that is still developing it can also be seen as one of uncertainty. This authorative text provides helps understand ANP by offering a comprehensive overview of its evolution, including practice, theory and core concepts; and a wide review of the current clinical, strategic, educational and research developments in advanced practice. This is an essential resource for Advanced Nurse Practitioners, their educators and mentors, and is a valuable resource for undergraduate student nurses, registered nurses and service managers.

This book convinces us that key advanced practice developments are critical for achieving excellence and fostering the mantra that the patient is at the centre of care. The interactive features within the book make it a clear and engaging guide'. - Ruth pearce, Chair of the Association of Advanced Practice Educators (AAPE), UK
