The paper develops the theme that cues for appropriate changes in nursing care and organization can be detected from the immediate socio‐political environment. Taking an historical perspective, changes in nursing care and organization are traced and the split between technology and care is discussed. A return to the model of hippocratic medicine is suggested by the introduction of a new role, that of the nurse practitioner . This model is considered in the light of nursing redefining its role vis‐à‐vis present day social needs of health care delivery systems.
