This advanced practice nurse is also located in many specialty fields and the effectiveness of the role has been proven through research to be equal to the work of other disciplines (Gardner & Gardner, 2010). The most important point about the nurse practitioner role is that it is carried out according to a nursing model instead of the medical model. When the nursing approach is blended with the medical model, there are maximum benefits both for the patient and the physician because the knowledge and skills from both models are incorporated into collaborative practice.
