What is a Nurse Practitioner?

Nurse Practitioners (NPs) are registered nurses with Master's degrees and can diagnose, treat and prescribe medications for patients in different areas of healthcare, depending on their education, experience and state of licensure.

What is the difference between a Physician and a Nurse Practitioner?

Nurse Practitioners are trained to use a different approach in caring for patients, known as the Nursing Model. The Nursing Model prepares practitioners to work closely with their patients to create an achievable, holistic treatment plan.
