The aim of the Primary Care Concentration is to prepare the primary health care nurse practitioner for this multifaceted role in community settings. The primary health care nurse practitioner is prepared to provide and/or collaborate in the provision of services designed to deal with the health care needs of patients of all ages and their families in a variety of primary care settings such as Family Medicine Groups (GMF), GMF-U, CLSC, long-term care facilities and patient homes. The focus is the development of expert clinical competence. The ability to function as an educator, consultant, collaborator, and care provider is essential to the development of clinical expertise. These areas are addressed within the curriculum. In Qu茅bec, the primary health care nurse practitioner corresponds with the title Infirmi猫re praticienne sp茅cialis茅e en soins de premi猫re ligne (IPSPL).
