The value nurse practitioners can bring to your facility.
Nurse practitioners (NPs) bring a unique approach to patient care – and patients appreciate their ability to create individualized care plans. But did you know medical practices that employ more non-physician providers like nurse practitioners are more profitable and productive?
Hiring a locum tenens nurse practitioner not only impacts your bottom line, but also prevents patient diversions and maintains a schedule that protects patients. Locums NPs may also contribute to better patient experiences, leading them to come back for future healthcare needs. Nurse practitioners can add value to your team by bringing a more individualized approach to patient care, more versatility to your medical staff, allowing your facility to save money, and combatting the physician shortage.
- Providing high-level care.
- Providing preventive care/health management and education to patients.
- Reducing overall salary costs.
- Practicing in rural areas and other underserved communities.
Patients see NPs more frequently now due to physician shortages, but in recent patient satisfaction surveys 89% of patients report that they are as comfortable with NPs as their primary care provider.
Employing nurse practitioners can enhance your practice’s revenue, productivity, and the patient experience. Meet the needs of your patients by allowing locums nurse practitioners to leverage the full extent of their training in your organization.
