The NP, as the most responsible healthcare provider (MRHCP), works autonomously to diagnose, order and interpret laboratory tests, order and interpret reports of diagnostic imaging investigations, prescribe pharmaceuticals, and perform procedures.

The NP provides direct care (including inpatient care) and partners with other members of the health care team for the achievement of the most appropriate and timely care for patients. Working autonomously or in collaboration with other members of the team, the NP provides care for and monitors the physical/biological, psychological, spiritual needs of patients and integrates these into holistic care plans engaging as appropriate with family, community, and other agencies/services.
