  • Title: [Nursing practice in family medicine groups and its interdisciplinary context].
    Author: Roy D, Sylvain H.
    Journal: Perspect Infirm; 2004; 2(1):16-20, 22-4, 26. PubMed ID: 15515306.
    Abstract:
    Nursing practice in family medicine groups (FMGs) is a major issue in the implementation of this new healthcare organization model in Quebec. Using a constructivist qualitative research approach, a case study of a FMG in a region of Quebec looked at how the partners involved in the project defined nursing practice, and highlighted the similarities and differences in their views. The results of this study show that nursing practice as a concept is perceived in two different ways: independent practice, associated with the recognition of nurses' potential, and interdisciplinary collaborative practice. Nurses view nursing practice from a client-base approach, whereas doctors view it from the perspective of how services are organized. The study found that trust is the fundamental element that makes interdisciplinary collaboration possible.
