NO. Nurses serve a KEY role of bridging the communication gap between Doctor and Patient.Without that - the System fails.#rnchat

Docs "give" Orders - Nurses "execute" them - & Nurses have invaluable "perspective" about theirPatients.#rnchat

T1, Someone needs to become doctors to save primary care, because doctors are becoming(PCPs) doctors.#RNchat

T1 I see a totally different picture when I read about the IOM report. Its not about RNs wanting tobe MDs--not at all#RNchat

@EllenRichter @HospitalPatientThe mere fact that you meaningfully interact w/ patient Families says a lot about YOU & of Nurses.#rnchat

Nurses and doctors bring different skill sets to the table. Expanding role is likely but as part of anew kind of care team.#rnchat

Is it true that Phy Assistants came after vietnam b/c they were so well trained? Health carePositions change to meet new needs?#RNchat
Thu Feb 10 18:15:51 PST 2011
SarahBethRN
agree, care team as we know it will change. RT@consultdoc: Expanding role is likely but as partof a new kind of care team.#RNchat

EllenRichter
T1Some of the roles of primary care-giver can be executed by RNs/RNPs. That doesnt meanRNs want to be doctors. But their care helps#RNchat

@PamelaKlineHi Pam!! :)#RNchat

I think this entire issue is about "Change" & every Health Care Professional must "adapt." Thistough economy is an oppty 4 docs#rnchat

PNPs have been around since the 1960s providing primary care to kids. It is not so much aboutexpanding the role, ... T1#rnchat

Rascal on duty: If roles would changed would this impact level of care but Salaries. Way to savehealth care dollars?#RNchat

Pts may begin to sort by need (chronic vs acute) rather than belonging to a practice. Acute careone place,chronic care another.#rnchat

but rather appropriately recognizing it. T1#rnchat

T1@ellenrichter-nurses traditional role is irreplaceable. IOM report suggests broad new role, willrequire ext. shift in training!#RNChat
Thu Feb 10 18:21:09 PST 2011
joniwatson
@consultdocdefinitely agree with you. Also include preventive care.#rnchat
Thu Feb 10 18:21:10 PST 2011
HospitalPatient
different? What they see as problematic I see as a "Cutting-Edge" opportunity to make "VirtualHouse Calls" - just as an example.#rnchat
Thu Feb 10 18:21:19 PST 2011
EllenRichter
@PracticalWisdomT1 Yes, I believe it can alter health care dollars by shifting some weight ofcare to nursing profession#RNchat
Thu Feb 10 18:21:24 PST 2011
NurseSallie
Preventative care is part of primary care NP education.#rnchat

Adv practice RNs should augment healthcare delivery, not replace docs#RNchat
Thu Feb 10 18:22:31 PST 2011

@consultdocGreat Point. But in the process of meeting Patient Needs - Docs can devise NEWBusiness Model which helps THEM as well#rnchat

Healthcare needs to be where the people are, not make it hard to get to. Retail models work for areason, access.#RNchat

T1:This is the part that concerns me: primary care by U.S. MDs is threatened with extinction; Ourchat groups mention this often.#RNchat

newly insured + 10000 boomers turning 65 everyday=demand on Primary Care never seenbefore. Nurses, PAs, pharmacists new frontline.#RNchat
