Nurse practitioners are advanced practice registered nurses who have received special courses and training. They usually work closely with doctors and can perform many high-level primary care tasks. They often specialize in specific types of practice such as pediatrics, psychiatry, or obstetrics. Some establish private practices; however, most work in doctors' offices, hospitals, or neighborhood health centers. Their duties often include taking detailed medical histories and performing complete physical exams, providing diagnoses and recommending treatment plans, treating common medical conditions, illnesses, and injuries, prescribing limited medications, and counseling patients and families. They also care
The medical field has to be ran by the utmost wonderful nurses. Nurse Practitioners (NP) are Advanced Practice Registered Nurses who provide care to patients throughout the lifespan, all the way from premature newborns to the elderly. Physician Assistants (PA) practice medicine on a team under the supervision of physicians and surgeons. A nurse practitioner has a more rewarding career then a physician assistant because of the education requirements, commission, job abilities, training and advancements in career.
Advanced Practice Nurses play an important role as innovators who can help shape school policies across the nation. APNs need to know how the school system works so they can contribute in formulating school policies aimed at keeping school children physically active. APNs need to collaborate with parents, school officials and the community to direct activities that have the greatest positive impact on school-aged
I think you made an appropriate question for nursing students. I agree with your idea. Clinical instructors have to ask their nursing students crucial question that related to the nursing practice so that nursing students can use critical thinking to answer the question correctly. If the question is a general, students might answer it directly and do not think about it too much. Certainly, simulation is a fantastic idea for nursing students to think deeply and acquire nursing skills. It makes also nursing students to learn and understand the environment in the hospital. Questioning students might increase the level of student knowledge and experience. Questioning might help nursing students to learn more about nursing practice

In 1965 the first Nurse Practitioner (NP) training program was created by a physician Henry Silver and a nurse Loretta Ford. There was a shortage of primary care physicians due to increased specializations in medicine. The shortages were very evident in rural areas and the creators of the program realized nurses had the potential to fill the primary care gap within their communities. This NP training was informal and lacked credentials, leading to criticism and mistrust of those providing care. The first master’s program for NP was established by Boston College in 1967.
The aim of this paper is to formulate a PICOT question and describe how important this research question is to nursing practice. It will include a summary of five research articles related to my PICOT question and identify a nursing practice that is supported by current research. The paper will also explain how a nursing practice that is supported by evidence-based practice can contribute to better outcomes. Lastly, I will share a strategy to share evidence-based practice throughout my organization and explain the importance of the practice.
Compare and contrast the two definitions of advanced practice nursing as defined by the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) DNP Essentials, the APRN consensus model, and as defined in the textbook reference below. a)Explain the two factors you think are the most important in your textbook’s definition of advanced practice nursing. b)Chapter 3 will be attached to instructions. Definition of APN on this Chapter c) APA style and use citations and references (3) immediate attachment: Please, review this discussion sample to write my paper (Same topic)
AZ Board of Nursing is an organization set up by the government to protect the public’s well-being. The board ensures that nurses are qualified to practice. The Board establishes safe practice by setting quality standards through regulation of education and licensing, which healthcare workers should comply. The organization also established and implements the Nurse Practice Act. They are responsible in setting rules and regulations for nurses in each state and needs to be followed with an intention of protecting the public for their safety (ncsbn.org). AZ Board of Nursing monitors nurses to make sure that their licenses are in good and active standing to operate in healthcare. AZ Board of Nursing is also responsible for conducting
Carson et al ., (2012 ) reported that blood administration sets should normally be changed after a maximum of 6 hours, in the massive transfusion setting the blood administration set may be changed at the discretion of the nurse or physician administering the blood i.e. if they become blocked or have been used to transfuse multiple units. Blood component administration sets should not be used for subsequent fluids infusions post transfusion as the intravenous fluid may be incompatible with blood in the line. Transfusion can take place through one lumen of a multi-lumen central catheter while the other lumens are not in use as no other infusion solutions or drugs should be added to any blood component as they may result in hemolysis
Target population was pregnant women less than fourteen weeks gestation that had a sedentary lifestyle. The researcher used two data collection instruments to complete this study. The first is The Cornell Protocol Fitness Tool that measured cardiovascular fitness level and peak oxygen consumption. The second data collection instrument used was The Minnesota Leisure Time Physical Activity Questionnaire assessed energy expenditure and daily physical activity. Candidates were excluded if they had chronic hypertension, gestational diabetes, and any medical condition that will prohibit daily exercise, communication problems, or recommendation of primary care provider not to participate (Yeo 2009).
The recording of Fluid Balance is an important role of the nurse, I assessed and recorded the fluid input and output, I ensured that all
