The clinical role of lecturers in nursing has been a focus of debate since the integration of nurse education into higher education institutions.
One of its approaches to ensure better accessibility to services is the integration of nurses with family doctors [ 30, 31].
The integration of nurse practitioner roles into the acute and long-term care settings is influencing enhanced care.
The success of preventive approaches, systematic follow-up, and continuity of care is due notably to the integration of nurses and other professionals into medical teams [ 49].
The key element of the new organizational form was the integration of nurses throughout the evolution towards a multidisciplinary group of practice.
In Quebec, practical nursing procedures are defined in a document adopted by the Ordre des infirmières et infirmiers du Québec (OIIQ) and the Collège des médecins, and as such, will guide the integration of nurses into health care teams [ 53].
Additional challenges include the integration of nurses and other health care professionals as teachers, as well as finding a sufficient number of specialized institutions such as hospices and mobile teams to perform clinical rotations.
Among the strategies used to reform the primary care system, the integration of nurses into family practices appears to offer a promising avenue, and is included in health care models currently in use.
The position of the OIIQ on the requirements for university-level nursing training in primary care service [ 53] and the future integration of nurse practitioners in primary care [ 53] will probably reassure patients, particularly if the contribution of these nurses is explained.
Further, there is a paucity of research literature related to the integration of the nursing process into simulation training particularly in the emergency nursing care of high-risk maternal and neonatal patients.
