  12. Advanced Practitioner • The definition used widely by the DOH outlines that an advanced practitioner is a clinically autonomous practitioner, defines the scope of practice of others and continuously develops clinical practice within a defined field. • Experienced non-medical registered professional who has developed his or her knowledge to a very high standard in a specific and often high level of practice. This high standard is such that not only is the individual the expert in the base domain:-but can also accept the full responsibilities for providing those services hitherto supplied by others, in defined circumstances. (J. Sargent 2003)
