Abstract
We investigated how nurse practitioners attending at worksite hyperten sion clinics were perceived as care providers by both patients enrolle d in the clinics and their private physicians, This study indicates a very favorable attitude towards nurse practitioners from both patients and private practitioners and gives additional support for the utiliz ation of nurse practitioners as effective health care providers in the management of common and chronic illnessess.
