Claudia Mariano has worked as a nurse practitioner for over 20 years. “If it is something to do with being a nurse practitioner, I’ve probably done it,” she says.
Nurse practitioners have a wider scope of capabilities than a registered nurse, including the ability to diagnose patients and prescribe medications as well as ordering and interpreting lab tests. In addition to more responsibilities, nurse practitioners can benefit from higher pay grade, manageable work hours, and the ability to connect with patients on a more personal level.
Nurse practitioners are increasingly seen as a cost-effective alternative to physicians, which has driven demand for them in the job market, according to Barbara Bickle, a nurse practitioner at the Scarborough Health Network and adjunct lecturer at the Lawrence S. Bloomberg Faculty of Nursing at the University of Toronto.
“Looking at care gaps across provinces, one issue is accessing primary care providers in a timely manner,” says Dawn Tymianski, CEO of the Nurse Practitioners Association of Ontario. “As nurse practitioners, we’re able to peg ourselves into these gaps effectively.”
