The first conceptual framework for frontier nurse practitioners!
This pioneering text is the first to present a framework for
remote-rural and frontier nurse practitioners (NPs), with a focus
on the political and contextual forces that influence practice.
This groundbreaking text distills contextual knowledge required for
frontier practice, describes how it differs from work in more
populated locations, and discusses the special skills and training
needed in this setting. It addresses the art and ethics of frontier
practice, the relationship between federal policy and frontier
health care, and how to advocate for adequate health care in remote
areas. Also included are rich narrative case studies, in which NPs
vividly describe why they decided to practice in the frontier
environment. They also discuss the educational and work experience
needed for frontier practice, the potential complications of
treating patients who are also friends and neighbors, and how to
manage emergency medical and trauma experiences in remote
environments. Key Features: Provides the first model for frontier
and remote-rural NP practice based on narrative evidence Introduces
the new frontier and remote (FAR) methodology and demonstrates its
use in nursing research Illustrates how narrative nursing knowledge
contributes to the discipline and informs theory Provides a
systematic review of key literature relating to frontier NP
practice Discusses the link between federal policy and rural health
care and its impact on NP practice Distills educational and policy
recommendations from the practice experiences of frontier NPs
