A significant increase to the nurse practitioner (NP) workforce in Ontario is long overdue. RNAO’s Vision for Tomorrow puts forward eight recommendations for expanding and supporting the supply of and use of NPs in Ontario. Integrating more NPs in the health-care workforce and expanding their roles and scope will increase health equity and access to health care in our province. NPs can play a critical role in achieving the government’s health system transformation goals and meeting the objectives of the quadruple aim: improved patient experience, improved patient outcomes, lower cost of care and improved provider experience.
