*Nurse Practitioners
(NP) are primary health care providers who practice
in ambulatory, acute and long term care settings.
According to their practice specialty these primary care
providers provide nursing and medical services to
individuals, families, and groups. In addition to
diagnosing and managing acute, episodic and chronic
illnesses, NPs emphasize health promotion and disease
prevention. Services include, but are not limited to,
ordering, conducting, and interpreting diagnostic and
laboratory tests, and prescription of pharmacologic
agents and non-pharmacologic therapies. Teaching and
counseling individuals, families and groups are a major
part of nurse practitioner practice.
Nurse Practitioners may practice alone and or within a
group of health care professionals and other individuals
to diagnose, treat, and manage the patient's health
problems. They serve as health care researchers,
interdisciplinary consultants, and patient advocates.
