Abstract
The Queen’s Nursing Institute (QNI) was cautiously optimistic that the Additional Roles Reimbursement Scheme (ARRS) would help develop the nursing workforce in primary care, but is disappointed that general practice nurses (GPNs) are not included. As the nursing role is not ‘new’ and GPNs are not considered ‘additional’, the role does not fit the criteria of the scheme.
