Two independent evaluation studies on delivering the FNP programme
have been published. They cover themes on the cost of delivering FNP
locally and the family nurse workforce. The first study
explore motivations, job satisfaction, career plans as well as
recruitment and retention issues amongst the family nurse workforce
across England to help plan the future expansion and sustainability of
the programme. The second study determines the average annual cost of
delivering a typical FNP team and a FNP place at local level so as to
inform future national and local commissioning and planning of the FNP
programme.
