title: Experiencing primary nursing: three perspectives.
abstract: While primary nursing holds great promise for both nurses and clients in health care, the reality is that it is not often achieved in practice. The experiences of those involved in primary nursing offer insight into the benefits of this method of care delivery. This paper reports on primary nursing from the perspectives of three practitioners: an administrator, a clinical practitioner and a clinical teacher. If the potential of primary nursing is to be realized, those commited to this modality of care have a responsibility to describe and advance it.
