Resumé

The National health policy 2015 enable nurses to assume leadership positions, improved regulation of practice, strengthened quality of nursing education by training and supporting nurse tutors, establishing cadres like nurse practitioners, and public health nurses. With establishment of new cadres and legal empowerment, master level prepared Nurse Practitioners will be able to provide cost effective, competent, safe and quality driven specialized nursing care to patients in a variety of settings in tertiary care centres. The policy will enable engagement with NGOs to serve as support and training institutions for ASHA and to serve as learning laboratories on future roles of community health workers as part of the country’s human resource strategy.
