Making Room in the Clinic : Nurse Practitioners and the Evolution of Modern Health Care Paperback / softback
by Julie A. Fairman
Part of the Critical Issues in Health and Medicine series
Paperback / softback
Description
In Making Room in the Clinic, Julie Fairman examines the context in which the nurse practitioner movement emerged, how large political and social movements influenced it, and how it contributed to the changing definition of medical care.
Drawing on primary source material, including interviews with key figures in the movement, Fairman describes how this evolution helped create an influential foundation for health policies that emerged at the end of the twentieth century, including health maintenance organizations, a renewed interest in health awareness and disease prevention, and consumer-based services.
