An educational model for the acute care nurse practitioner.
As new opportunities for acute care nurse practitioners (ACNP) evolve, there is increasing recognition of the need to distinguish between the knowledge base and the role functions generic to all advanced practice nurses, and the knowledge base specific to different areas of clinical specialization. This necessitates differentiating between converging core curriculum elements and merging the roles of advanced practice nurses. This article presents an educational model for the ACNP.
