Abstract
This chapter will focus on the emergence and evolvement of advanced nursing practice. The historical context of the inauguration of nursing as a profession and the subsequent regulation of nursing will be outlined. The rationale for the development of advanced nursing practice will be explored, leading to a focus on one component of this concept: advanced practice nurse roles. The nomenclature associated with advanced practice nurse roles will be outlined, leading to an introduction to the emergence of the specialist nursing workforce, specifically the clinical nurse specialist, which will be the focus of Chapter 2.
