Nurse Practitioner

Nurse Practitioner Clinics Australia (NPCA) is a newly established primary health service which aims to collaborate health services between General Practitioners, Nurse Practitioners, Pharmacists and Allied health services.

The Nurse Practitioners are trained and certified to practice within their designated state and under clinical practice guidelines that ensure the public are given the best care with the most current health and pharmaceutical interventions.

The community can now see a Nurse Practitioner for antibiotics, repeat medication scripts, health checks including cholesterol, diabetes, and other blood tests. X-rays and other referrals form the scope of practice that ensures patients are seen and treated faster or referred to specialist care sooner.

Convenient, affordable and comparable health care to the General Practice setting is now an option for the Australian community. Experience the new face of Primary Health Care at Fitch's Pharmacy today.
