Collaborative Strategic Initiative between a University and Hospital Network Group: Advanced Nurse/Midwife Practice Forum.

This Commentary does not set out to present material already in the public domain but to demonstrate how a dedicated advanced nurse/midwife practice forum can add to the body of knowledge already available to practitioners. Suffice to say that international agencies including the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Ireland (2016) have developed education and competency standards and requirements for advanced practice nursing and midwifery. The Institute of Medicine Report (IOM 2010) on the future of nursing recognises that barriers exist with respect to advanced practice nurses being able to practice to the full extent of their capabilities. Since then advanced practice has broadened to include most nursing disciplines and care givers as well as midwifery.
