Abstract
Nursing innovations in primary care, based on interprofessional care models, could be better identified, recognized, and deployed. This article presents the results of a symposium discussing the implementation of nursing innovations in primary care in Quebec, Canada, in partnership with researchers and stakeholders. Built on the appreciative inquiry approach, 9 nursing innovations were described. To support the implementation of such nursing innovations responding to current primary care issues and population needs, 4 recommendations emerged: the need to implement strategies to achieve optimal scope of practice for primary care nurses; the importance to develop funding and organizational models that support primary care nursing innovation; the need to enhance a collaborative and democratic governance open to innovation; and the opportunity to create partnerships with the research community and teaching institutions.
