Evaluating nurse prescribing in mental health patients: a pilot study

Snowden, Austyn

Abstract

This article describes the process of piloting a questionnaire designed to establish certain demographic, quantitative and qualitative information about the impact of nurse prescribing in Greater Glasgow and Clyde. The questionnaire was sent to a random sample of about 10% of the nurse prescriber database held by the lead nurse in Greater Glasgow and Clyde and elicited themes on which to base further research. The aim is to explore these themes in interviews with patients.
