Abstract
Recent years have seen an increased interest and use of advanced practice nurses (APN) in long-term care. Models of best practices of supervision and collaboration have been promulgated by many organizations, but none have specifically addressed how these interactions should occur in the nursing home setting. In order to better define the role of the attending physician and APN to provide optimal resident care, American Medical Directors Association formed a work group to address collaborative and supervisory relationships in long-term care facilities.
