Abstract
The assessment of nurse practitioner (NP) workload is complex and requires stakeholder involvement to fully understand it. This study describes stakeholders’ information needs and elements for an NP workload measurement instrument in primary care. This was a descriptive, qualitative study with purposeful sampling and semistructured interviews (February 2020-September 2021). Content analysis and descriptive statistics were used. The participants (n = 31) cited several reasons to develop an NP workload instrument (eg, equitable expectations, NP contribution, and well-being). Key elements include client type, appointments type, NP experience, and organizational context. This study provides recommendation for developing an NP workload instrument.
