Description
Purpose In Australia nurse practitioners (NP) hold a Masters level of qualification and are authorised to practice autonomously, order and interpret diagnosis investigations, make referrals to other clinicians, and prescribe medications. NP clinics are, however, also structured along disease siloes like medical practitioners’ clinics which is problematic for people with multiple comorbidities. An innovative, community-based chronic disease clinic for patients with at least two chronic diseases (chronic kidney disease [CKD], diabetes [DM] or heart failure [HF]) commenced in June, 2014, staffed only by NPs with the aim to improve access and patient-centred care using an integrated design.
Impact and interest:

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
