- Regular and timely access to health care
- Less hospitalizations
- Prescribed less medications
Nurse Practitioners can:
- Diagnose and treat illnesses
- Order tests and consults
- Prescribe/renew medications

Thank you Kristen for your support! You are unfortunately one of the five million Canadians without a Family Physician, but a Nurse Practitioner clinic can help! Nurse Practitioners can help your friend manage and treat her Diabetes.
Thank you Laura for your support! Yes, unfortunately Ottawa does not have any Nurse Practitioner led clinics! Hopefully with enough support, the government will help out this lack of access to health care in your city!
I'm from Ottawa and there are no NPLC's here! We need some!
I don't have a family physician this sounds like a great idea!! My friend is diabetic and its nice to know what NPs can help her with her chronic illness!!
