Abstract

NPs are integral members of Primary Health Care teams, yet they are still underutilized. This research paper examines whether patients receive comparable health care when treated by Nurse Practitioners in comparison to general practitioners. The purpose of this paper is to explore and determine the effectiveness and quality of care provided in Primary Health Care by Nurse Practitioners in comparison to General Practitioners. Quality of care will be analyzed by exploring patient satisfaction and patient outcomes.
