The clinic was opened in 2006 and has since provided services to roughly 5,000 patients.: The clinic was originally established with the help of the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) in order to provide primary care for individuals living in the surrounding area. The key to the clinic's success lies in the fact that it can provide most of the same services one would find at a family doctor's practice yet at a significantly lower cost.: Clinics like these are popping up all over the country as demand for affordable health care continues to rise. In fact, the HRSA continues to support such clinics by offering grants to aid further development.: The Appalachian clinic just received an additional $1.8 million to establish satellite clinics that would expand services outward. By supporting nurse practitioner clinics the HRSA hopes to make affordable health care accessible to people with limited financial resources.The Same Is Happening in Canada : The Same Is Happening in Canada While nurse practitioner clinics are not catching on in the United States as quickly as some would hope, they are spreading like wildfire north of the border. Just this past week (November 2011) a new clinic opened in Saulte St. Marie with a capacity of more than 3,000 patients annually.: The provincial government of Ontario has even developed a special program to encourage the establishment of such clinics in order to meet the healthcare needs of its citizens. One after another, nurse practitioner clinics are becoming a mainstay of the Canadian healthcare system.: Becoming a nurse practitioner is a wise career choice for individuals who enjoy the healthcare field. There are opportunities in all sorts of specialties including family practice, pediatrics, cardiology, urology, and so on.: And with the current nationwide shortage of healthcare professionals of all disciplines, there will be plenty of work available for many years to come.
