Nurses were motivated by the ability to be self-employed and the expansion of their scope of professional work general practitioners regarded medical duty delegation as workload relief. Patients positively evaluated nurse visits, comparing medical competence and conduct to that of a general practitioner's.Conclusion.The qualification is a promising approach to compensate for the imminent undersupply of primary care and allows maintenance a high standard of healthcare quality for rural areas of Germany and countries with similar structures. It supports doctors through task delegation, and offers an option for an advanced training for nurses.
