Unit 2: The Evolution of the Role of the NP – Discussion
Topic 2: The Consensus Model/LACE
The Consensus Model was developed with the idea of uniform regulation of NPs across the United States. Review the document Consensus Model for APRN Regulation: Licensure, Accreditation, Certification and Education (NCSBN, 2008) by clicking HERE.
Evaluate the proposed model. What are the strengths and weaknesses of the Consensus Model? Consider the implications, as well. How might this model impact competition and/or collaboration between NPs and physicians in the U.S. health care system?
