Crynodeb:Introduction: The Advanced Practice Nurse (APN) is a type of professional that has been incorporated in the health systems of various countries with the aim of optimizing access, equity and efficiency in care. Objective: To unveil the perception about the advanced practice nurse professional according to primary health care nurses. Methodology: The research was conducted with a qualitative phenomenological methodology, the testimonies of eight participants who lived the experience of being a primary care nurse and talked about the feasibility of creating a Master of Advanced Practice in primary care in Chile were collected. The information was obtained through in-depth interviews, protecting confidentiality. Results: Six units of meaning emerged: 1) Development of nursing over the years; 2) Adaptation of nursing to public policies in CESFAMs; 3) Leadership in care management; 4) Personal and professional development in nursing when caring for others in primary care; 5) Need for continuous academic development; 6) Transition toward advanced practice nursing in primary care. Participants expressed motivation to pursue EPA-oriented graduate studies, including clinical, community and management content. Conclusion: The implementation of the EPA role in Chilean primary care is perceived as feasible and necessary. The study provides evidence for the design of postgraduate academic programs and supports the formulation of public policies aimed at strengthening advanced nursing competencies.
