[Birth of an IPA collective within a hospital].

Since 2020, the Charles-Perrens Hospital Center in Bordeaux has been supporting the implementation of advanced practice nursing. The formation of a group of five advanced practice nurses (APNs) has enabled the deployment of numerous missions consistent with the APN model. With a view to developing the nursing discipline and enriching the healthcare offer, they are developing direct clinical missions or missions addressed to professionals and the healthcare system. The collective represents a major lever for implementation, and allows this new professional identity to be positioned within the hospital institution.
