The National Conference for Nurse Practitioners (NCNP) is sponsored by Wolters Kluwer Health/Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, and is part of the platform of the publication, The Nurse Practitioner Journal. Each year, our conference committee works diligently to surpass the quality, content, and expectations of the previous meeting. Our 2009 conference is no exception – not only have we planned timely concurrent sessions, but our exhibits, educational content, and poster presentations are more lively and cutting-edge than ever before. Upon reviewing this program, I think you'll agree that this year's NCNP is one of the most informative programs available to those involved in advanced practice nursing for primary and acute care.
Program Goals and Objectives
The purpose of the National Conference for Nurse Practitioners is to offer interactive tutorials, presentations, and practical workshops that promote clinical excellence and improve the quality of care that health care practitioners provide. By attending this conference and participating in the educational sessions, you’ll be able to:
Consult with experts in primary and acute care as well as clinical subspecialties
Discuss issues related to family, adult, pediatric, geriatric, women’s health, legal, and mental health, in both the primary and acute care settings.
Develop your assessment and clinical management skills in hands-on and skill-building workshops.
Evaluate current and new treatment methods and pharmacologic therapies.
Identify issues that affect advanced practice, including reimbursement, malpractice, clinical practice guidelines, and using the latest technologies in the industry.
We also encourage you to share your research findings as well as your tips, tricks, techniques and expertise as a presenter in our poster session. Display details of your clinical innovations and give colleagues information they can take home and apply in their work settings. Poster guidelines can be downloaded from this page (see column on right).
