Information gained from this group informed the development of a questionnaire, which was sent to a convenience sample (n=125) of GCNs. Participation was voluntary and participants were not identified. Seventy\u2011eight questionnaires were returned within the specified time frame, providing a return rate of 62.4%.<br \/>\nResults: Three main themes emerged:<\/p>\n<p>enabling the community nurses\u2019 role;<br \/>\naccessing clinical knowledge\\expert practitioner; and<br \/>\nvaluable resource.<\/p>\n<p>The main reasons community nurses accessed CNCs were for clinical knowledge (73%) and problem solving (70%); the majority (82.9%) indicated visiting patient\u2019 homes with the CNCs was most useful.<br \/>\nConclusion: As the complexity of patients\u2019 needs at home increase, CNCs have taken on an integral clinical role within the organisation. The positive working relationship between the CNCs and GCNs presumably had enhanced patient outcomes and improved patient health status. A significant strength of the survey was the consistent responses in favour of CNCs working in the community with the GCNs. A limitation is that the response rate was small (n=78) and results cannot be generalised. Results of this survey could serve to inform future work force planning.<\/p>\n<h2>Authors<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Wendy Jannings<\/li>\n<li>Emma Underwood<\/li>\n<li>Mary Almer<\/li>\n<li>Bronwin Luxford<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Keywords<\/h2>\n<p>clinical nurse consultant, community health nursing<\/p>\n<h2>References<\/h2>\n<p>References not available for this article.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This article was originally published as: How useful is the expert practitioner role of the clinical nurse consultant to the&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":21,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[124],"tags":[4686,4845],"class_list":["post-7571","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-articles","tag-clinical-nurse-consultant","tag-community-health-nursing","wpcat-124-id"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>How useful is the expert practitioner role of the clinical nurse consultant to the generalist community nurse?
