“…Very likely that domination of GPs in the team is self-evident, the main shortcoming they see in this field – insufficient CNs obedience to fulfil tasks delegated by GPs. Other researchers also underline the defensiveness physicians feel to some degree about the changing roles of nursing professionals [43,44].

Minami [17,18] a noté que l'introduction effective de la pratique infirmière avancée doit tenir compte des spécificités de l'environnement de soins local. Elle souligne également que ce processus doit permettre de mieux répondre aux besoins de la population du pays concernée en s'inscrivant dans une réforme plus large du système de santé.…”

“…Schober et Affara [4] ont identifié une variabilité importante entre les pays en voie développement dans ce domaine, la fonction d'IPA était dépendante du contexte du pays mais aussi de la culture de soins infirmiers.
