مستخلص: Background: The nurse practitioner role has become important globally in handling the growing healthcare needs of older adults with chronic diseases. Nevertheless, research shows that introducing the role is a complex process, and more studies are needed to prepare for its introduction into different healthcare contexts, such as municipal healthcare. Aim: The aim is to investigate what Swedish stakeholders identify as the preparatory work needed before introducing the nurse practitioner role into municipal healthcare. Methods: Data were collected through four focus group interviews conducted virtually on the TEAMS digital platform, with three to six participants in each group and 18 participants total. The transcribed interviews were analysed using a six‐step thematic approach: familiarisation with the data, coding the data, generating initial themes, reviewing themes, defining and naming the themes and producing the report. Findings: The findings are divided into two main themes, each with two sub‐themes. In the first, clarifying why the nurse practitioner role is needed, participants stressed the importance of having a clear intention for introducing the role. The second, ensure a national framework to bolster the introduction at the local level, demonstrates the need for collaboration among national actors to clarify the role's mandate and authority before its introduction. Conclusions: Adding the nurse practitioner role to municipal healthcare can help increase the supply of nursing competence and the quality of patient care, but preparation for introducing the role requires extensive work. The development of the nurse practitioner role requires decision‐makers and leaders to take primary responsibility for its introduction. This study can support countries in the early phase of developing the nurse practitioner role by identifying both best practices and pitfalls. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
