About Our Nurse Practitioners

Come for a short time or stay for a while!


The Nurse Practitioner (NP) will provide direct, comprehensive clinical care to patients in the Emergency Department (ED). The NP works autonomously to diagnose, order and interpret diagnostic tests, prescribe pharmaceuticals and perform procedures within the legislated scope of practice and where required, a defined collaborative practice agreement, to provide care to a defined population. The NP provides direct care and partners with other members of the health care team for the achievement of immediate care to patients. Working in collaboration with a physician, the NP assess the physical needs of highly acute complex patients admitted to the ED. The NP orders, interprets, and records results of clinical tests and reports results to physicians.

The NP integrates selected tasks and knowledge from the NSHA Emergency Program of Care into a framework of advanced nursing practice. The NP works in close collaboration with Emergency Department Physician, nursing and interdisciplinary team.

The NP adheres to the NSCN Standards for Nursing Practice and the Code of Ethics and is responsible and accountable at all times for their own practice consistent with relevant legislation, professional and ethical standards. The NP is accountable to identify, analyze and evaluate activities that are reflective of quality improvement initiatives.

The NP ensures that the principles and practices that guide Nova Scotia Health (NSH) such as the overall organizational and Emergency Program of Care’s vision, mission, values, expected behaviors, the leadership philosophy, organizational health, population health, ethics, safety, quality, partnerships and interdisciplinary collaboration are integrated within the support that is provided by the work that they do and through the messages they deliver.
