Normally, in nursing and the allied health professions, advanced clinical practitioners provide clinical leadership and improve clinical continuity by providing high-quality care to patients through complex decision-making and managing risk. The role contributes to workforce transformation enabling organizations to meet changing population, patient, and service delivery needs. Advanced clinical practitioners’ well-being and resilience were particularly at risk during the pandemic due to the increased workload, moral distress, redeployment into other clinical areas, and isolation.
