Introduction
One of the defining characteristics of living in the twenty-first century is adapting to the changes that have been prompted by evolving technological, political, economic and social developments.
Healthcare practice has not been immune to these influences (World Health Organization 2002, 2006). Comparing current healthcare practice with that of the 1970s reveals a whole career's worth of development and adaptation to these differing patterns of disease and healthcare provision. An operating department manager and leader must recognize this fact (Kay 2005) and not only deal with its impact but, more importantly, also proactively anticipate possible changes or shifts of emphasis so that manager and team are able to adapt and meet the opportunities and challenges they may pose (Dubois et al. 2006).
The PEST analysis
The PEST analysis (political, economic, social and technological factors; QuickMBA 2008) is one way of considering the impact of various factors on the role of the advanced practitioner.
There has been no single revolutionary force promoting the development of the non-medically qualified advanced practitioner. The origins of the advanced practitioner have been much more evolutionary, organic and complex, as healthcare systems worldwide have risen to the combined challenges presented by these external forces.
