The combination of the nursing and medical domains yields a distinct level of performance, which defines the Advanced Nurse Practitioner domain in community healthcare. Owing to the diversity in role fulfilment among Advanced Nurse Practitioners and the absence of a unified vision, job crafting requires further elaboration and refinement.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Implications for the Profession and Patient Care<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Advanced Nurse Practitioners working in community healthcare settings are hybrid professionals who act as liaisons, combining aspects of both the nursing and medical domains. The results of this study will impact Advanced Nurse Practitioners in community care, supporting their network\u2010based competence, empowering job crafting and enhancing their role positioning. A shared international understanding and a unified vision of the Advanced Nurse Practitioner role, along with its alignment with other healthcare professionals, are essential for situating the role within a broad interprofessional context.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Reporting Method<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The COREQ checklist was used for reporting.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Patient or Public Involvement<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study did not include patient or public involvement in its design, conduct or reporting.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/nop2.70857","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,22]],"date-time":"2026-09-22T04:49:55Z","timestamp":1790052595000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Views of Advanced Nurse Practitioners on Their Roles and Responsibilities in Community Care for Home\u2010Dwelling Patients: A Qualitative Descriptive Study"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0007-8510-6347","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sanne","family":"Smulders","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University Medical Center Groningen  Groningen the Netherlands"},{"name":"NHL Stenden Hogeschool Leeuwarden  Leeuwarden the Netherlands"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5622-4730","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Geke","family":"Dijkstra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"NHL Stenden Hogeschool Leeuwarden  Leeuwarden the Netherlands"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4266-744X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Anneke","family":"van Vught","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Dutch Healthcare Authority  Utrecht the Netherlands"},{"name":"HAN Univerity of Applied Sciences  Nijmegen the Netherlands"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9964-7212","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nienke","family":"Bleijenberg","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University Medical Center Utrecht  Utrecht the Netherlands"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3592-1953","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nynke","family":"Boonstra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"NHL Stenden Hogeschool Leeuwarden  Leeuwarden the Netherlands"},{"name":"University Medical Center Utrecht  Utrecht the Netherlands"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2837-6144","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Evelyn","family":"Finnema","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University Medical Center Groningen  Groningen the Netherlands"},{"name":"NHL Stenden Hogeschool Leeuwarden  Leeuwarden the Netherlands"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_13_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365\u20102648.2004.03234.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_3_1","first-page":"59","volume-title":"Existential\u2010Phenomenological Alternatives for Psychology","author":"Colaizzi P.
