Abstract
There was no clear evidence of benefit on glycaemic control, when nurses who undertake prescribing work alongside a doctor and other practitioners. However, in those studies in which nurses replaced physicians, the glycaemic control was comparable between nurses and doctors. Therefore, there may be value in providing nurse-led prescribing services where there is limited access to doctor-led services.
