  • Coordinate health care activity and referral to, and liaison with, internal and external community agencies and services relevant to their conditions.

The NP/TNP role is grounded in the nursing profession's values, knowledge, theories and practices and provides innovative and flexible health care delivery that complements other health care providers.

The scope of practice of the nurse practitioner is determined by the context in which the nurse practitioner is authorised to practice.
