"Every NP should own a copy of this
book!" - The Nurse Practitioner Journal
Nurse practitioners who read this book will have a solid foundation of knowledge with which they may continue their practice confidently and effectively, whether it be in developing an employment relationship, undertaking a business venture, giving testimony before the state legislature, composing a letter to an insurance company about an unpaid bill, teaching at a school of nursing, or serving as president of a state or national organization. Special features include:
"This book provides, under one cover, many of the details of the NP role that have been discussed in other publications but never brought together. By providing specific information about individual state regulations and comparing some of the discrepancies in scope, regulation, and trends in NP practice, this book becomes an important reference for NPs. The author provides practical tools such as a basic office practice budget and a sample fact sheet for patients about NPs and offers practical encouragement and insights when asking a hospital about its process for receiving admitting privileges. A well done index helps the reader find specific detail quickly. The simple and academic appearance may belie the depth and readability of this book." - Shirley E. Van Zandt, CRNP, MSN, MPH (Johns Hopkins University School of Nursing)
