COURSE DESCRIPTION:

Advanced practice providers (APPs) –– nurse practitioners and physician assistants –– are key contributors to the delivery of quality care. With expanding practice roles in settings providing more-complex patient care, it is important to provide APPs opportunities for interprofessional continuing education.

TARGET AUDIENCE:

Physicians, Advanced Practice Registered Nurses, Physician Assistants, Pharmacists and all other interested healthcare providers.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

  • Identify and screen patients for disease and implement evidence-based treatment.
