Several physicians in Sherwood Park now have Registered Nurses and Licensed Practical Nurses working as part of their in-house, clinic team. These Family Practice Nurses are there to help out when needed during an appointment, and are often involved in follow up care with patients, their families, or other health care providers. The nurses work to their full scope of practice to assist physicians and patients with their everyday health care needs. Ultimately, the nurses are there to help patients see their physician when they need to, and help physicians provide the very best primary care services to their patients.
