[NPInfo] ANP to FNP programs, etc.

[Paula Sumner]

Hi,
  UNC at Chapel Hill has post-Masters programs, here is info on the FNP:
http://nursing.unc.edu/degree/postmsn/fnp.html and posts the following cautions:


  'Potential applicants who currently hold national certification as a nurse practitioner and an earned master's degree in a related field will need to contact the certification organization in their newly selected specialty area to determine their eligibility or ability to petition the Certification program for permission to sit for the examination upon completion of a postmaster's program. 
  In addition, all applicants are strongly encouraged to contact the Board of Nursing in the state in which they intend to practice, to determine the procedure (if any) to receive approval to practice as a nurse practitioner with an MPH or a master's in another related field. This procedure varies widely by state.'

  Hello, I am gathering resources for an upcoming newsletter article and would like to ask a favor of the group. If you know of any NP programs with the study option to allow a ANP, PNP, WHNP, GNP to become a FNP, please forward this information to me. Also any other interesting options such as primary care to acute or psych mental health care, etc. info is welcome. 

Thanks in advance, Peg Fitzgerald (signing off from Anchorage, AK where I just spoke to at the great Alaska NP meeting. Terrific bunch of interesting people)
