Abstract
Aim
To explore what is known about nurses' experiences and perceptions of running nurse-led clinics.
Background
Nurse-led clinics were established to address health care needs. In collaboration with medical practitioners, advanced practice nurses may take a selected group of patients and manage their ongoing healthcare independently. Their experiences in running nurse-led clinics directly impact patient satisfaction and clinical outcomes.
Design
Scoping review of the peer-reviewed literature.
Data Source
Systematic search through CINAHL, Medline, PsycINFO and Web of Science databases from January 2010 to September 2023.
Review Methods
This scoping review is guided by the updated methodological guidance for the conduct of scoping review from Joanna Briggs Institute.
Results
Of 2747 retrieved articles, 15 were included in this review. Synthesis of the findings revealed that nurses believed implementing nurse-led clinics was beneficial to themselves, patients, and healthcare systems. However, they faced challenges in running nurse-led clinics, including insufficient support, teamwork obstacles and lack of role recognition.
Conclusion
Nurses need to be proactive in promoting their clinics and overcoming challenges. Healthcare organizations are responsible for creating a positive culture to support nurse-led services. Future research should focus on ways to increase global awareness of nurse-led clinics.
