An evaluation of the scheduled medicines and supply function of RIPRN nurses operating within rural health services in Victoria was conducted between July and December 2014 by Merrilyn Sneddon Project Services. Some of the key findings were:
- increased skill and confidence of the endorsed nurses
- Better work-life balance for participating general practitioners and improved collegial relationships between general practitioners and nurses working in urgent care centres
- Broad acceptance of the model by the community.
- See RIPRN evaluation report, for the complete evaluation findings.
