A challenge in one NP's practice can look isolated A challenge in one NP's practice can look isolated. When NPs across Ontario begin describing the same barrier, it becomes a system issue that needs attention.
NPAO helps connect those experiences. Through member conversations, Communities of Practice, surveys, direct outreach and professional engagement, we identify recurring issues and bring them forward through advocacy, policy work, stakeholder engagement and public awareness.
That is one of the most important functions of membership: turning individual experiences into a collective professional voice.
Add your voice. Join NPAO.

Nurse Practitioners support prevention and early detection through health histories, risk assessment, screening, immunization, patient education, follow-up, and ongoing care.
From cancer screening to cardiovascular risk, sexual health, immunization and chronic disease prevention, NPs help patients make informed decisions and identify health concerns earlier.
Prevention is a core part of comprehensive NP care.

Join us on November 10 at 12PM for the Why Am I St Join us on November 10 at 12PM for the Why Am I Still Faxing? Making Interoperability Real in Everyday NP Workflows Webinar! 
https://loom.ly/22sNvjQ
This presentation offers a practical, NP-focused introduction to interoperability, challenging the assumption that “digital” automatically means “connected”. It explores why this distinction matters for patient safety, clinician workload, and continuity of care. Participants will examine the difference between merely viewing patient information and being able to meaningfully use it within clinical workflows. Particular attention will be given to how interoperability gaps disproportionately impact patients with complex, multi-site care, those in rural or remote settings, and those without stable primary care.
Participants will leave with a clearer understanding of where interoperability gaps persist, how to assess digital tools for meaningful connectivity, and the language needed to advocate for health systems that are truly integrated. Ultimately, NPs will build greater digital fluency, strengthening their ability to critically evaluate the tools they use and expand their role in shaping more connected, inclusive models of care.
Presentation Objectives:
1. Define interoperability and explain how patient information-sharing gaps persist across care settings in Ontario.
2. Identify the clinical and operational impact of disconnected systems, including as safety risks, administrative workloads and delays in care.
3. Describe strategies NPs can use to advocate for more connected digital workflows that support equitable integrated care.

🏆 2026 Patient Choice Award Winner: Tara Peel, NP 🏆 2026 Patient Choice Award Winner: Tara Peel, NP
What does exceptional Nurse Practitioner care look like?
For Tara Peel’s patients, it means being heard, supported and taken seriously — whether navigating a long recovery from a workplace injury, supporting a child with autism, or seeking answers through perimenopause.
Patients described Tara as compassionate, knowledgeable, approachable and committed to finding the right supports and treatments for the people and families in her care.
One patient shared:
“[She] always listened and showed compassion... she never gave up helping find supports and treatments.”
Another described how Tara approached their perimenopause care:
“She has listened to every concern and symptom I have had and taken it seriously... At the end of every meeting, she states that she will do more research and find out the best way to help me.”
These stories demonstrate something we hear from patients across Ontario: Nurse Practitioners provide comprehensive, relationship-based care that combines clinical expertise with listening, continuity and advocacy.
Congratulations, Tara, on being selected as a 2026 NPAO Patient Choice Award recipient — and thank you for the difference you make for your patients and their families.
