title = "Advanced Practice Nursing in the United Kingdom",
abstract = "The United Kingdom is comprised of four countries, with each country having a devolved Government responsible for developing their own policies including health policy. Advanced practice nursing has evolved in response to the country specific needs. An overview of the development of advanced practice in each country is provided in this chapter, with a summary of the successes and challenges during this period. Currently title protection and regulation are not standardized within the UK. However, many changes are evident including the creation of Academies of Advanced Practice in England and Scotland to accredit those working at an advanced level. In England this includes allied health professionals, not just nurses. Case examples of advanced practice nurses who have demonstrated exceptional leadership and pioneering work in the UK are presented in this chapter.",
