In the Adult-Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioner program, you’ll develop the necessary skills to provide high-quality, cost-effective primary care across the lifespan from adolescence through geriatrics in outpatient clinics, medical offices and skilled nursing facilities.
Care for the unique needs of adolescents and adults
Adult-Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioners specialize in providing advanced nursing care to adult patients in a wide variety of settings. Focused on holistic health and wellness and treating the entire patient, these providers are critical to the care and medical well-being of adolescents, adults and the rapidly aging population.
This flexible program allows students to complete almost all of their coursework online outside of three one-week immersions that must be completed on campus. The program can be completed either full-time or part-time and prepares graduates to sit for a national certification exam. Students will work with dedicated faculty advisers to create a pathway that best suits their professional needs and wants.
Within two years of completing the MSN, students may seamlessly transition into the Doctor of Nursing Practice program without losing credits or duplicating coursework.
