What is a Nurse Practitioner (NP)?
A nurse practitioner (NP) is a registered nurse with advanced academic and clinical education. Nurse practitioners earn a minimum of a Master's degree with many NPs earning Doctorate degrees. Nurse practitioners must be nationally board certified and licensed by the State Board of Nursing in the state in which they practice.
NPs are qualified to formulate patient diagnoses and treatment plans. Nurse practitioners order diagnostic tests and prescribe medications. NPs can either provide general care as a primary provider or specialty care as a consultant for an individual condition.
NPs promote a holistic approach to health care and emphasize the overall health and wellness of their patients. They take the "whole person” into account, not just the immediate ailment.
NPs concentrate on patient-centered care. They are specifically trained to educate and support individuals and families, helping them change behaviors and make informed, individual choices about their health and their health care.
