The Adult Health / Women's Health Nurse Practitioner specialty is designed to prepare advanced practice nurses to provide primary health care to women. Course content emphasizes the role of the nurse practitioner in obtaining comprehensive health assessments, making differential diagnoses, and the prescribing of pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic treatments. Emphasis is placed on the advanced practice role in health promotion, health education, and early detection of health problems. Experience in various settings allows the student to work autonomously and within interdisciplinary teams under faculty/preceptor supervision.
