title: Lessons in Leadership From 3 Nurse Practitioners at the Boston Health Care for the Homeless Program.
abstract: Nurse practitioners play an integral role in the care of patients in underserved areas. At the Boston Health Care for the Homeless Program, many nurses have been promoted into leadership positions. Three nurse practitioners were asked to discuss their career paths, talk about leadership in the context of their career trajectory, and do so while considering how their training and clinical work prepared them to take on leadership roles.
