NP Roundtable Responds to AMA Document on NP Scope of Practice

Dec 11, 2009

The NP Roundtable composed of NAPNAP, NONPF, ACNP, AANP, GAPNA (Gerontological Advanced Practice Nurses Association) and NPWH (Nurse Practitioners in Women’s Health) recently developed a response to the American Medical Association Scope of Practice Data Series on Nurse Practitioners.

After a thorough review, the members of the NP Roundtable found that the document contains numerous factual misrepresentations and misleading conclusions about nurse practitioners.  The professional organizations representing nurse practitioners and the larger nursing community will ensure that the public and policy makers have accurate and unbiased information about our profession.
