Can we have a drum roll, please 🥁 Today, we launch our #TeamGesh staff stories. That means every week we'll introduce you to some of the incredible people we have working across our hospital Group. They'll be telling you about the difference they make to our patients and communities, and what makes them unique. First up, we have the amazing Joana, a clinical nurse specialist 👋 She specialises in adult safeguarding and is based at St George's. 💬 "Being a nurse requires clinical expertise, but also the warmth and empathy of a fellow human being - with all the emotions that accompany it."

Nurse Practitioners have the scope and knowledge to provide family medicine to Ontarians and help fix a massive shortage of GPs. As an NP working for a private platform over 70% of patients I see, do not have a GP (NP OR FAMILY DOCTOR). It's about time to have improved integration into our health care system that allows NPs to get compensated in various funding model options. It is about time to also educate the public and improve access to our communities. Most people still do not fully understand our role. Nps work as GPs We are autonomous We are not supervised by doctors We manage exactly the same acute and chronic conditions as family doctors. We collaborate with specialists as needed. We assess, order lab tests and imaging including MRIs / CTs We diagnose independently We prescribe all medications We refer or consult with specialists if needed We advocate for patients We admit and discharge in hospital We can perform minor procedures such as biopsies, excision of skin lesions, IUDs and medical abortions We do all routine cancer screening and physicals and well baby or child visits We have an exceptional skill set and passion to provide comprehensive health care.
