Adult-Gerontology Acute Care Specialty for Nurse Practitioners
Nurse practitioner students who pursue the adult-gerontology acute care specialty will be prepared to diagnose and treat adult and older adult patients who are acutely or critically ill, including those who have conditions requiring complex chronic specialty care.
In this program, you’ll gain the skills to deliver advanced nursing care that restores health, prevents complications, and navigates patients and families across health care settings in a rapidly changing environment.
Graduates of the AGACNP program are well-prepared to meet these challenges and are practicing in ICUs — cardiac, medical, surgical, trauma, and neuromedicine — hospital inpatient floors, and outpatient specialty care clinics. Read more about the Degree Plan.
