Current Directions in Family Nurse Practitioner Curricula. Proceedings of a National Conference of Representatives from Family Nurse Practitioner Programs (Chapel Hill, North Carolina, January 29-31, 1976)
Pickard, C. Glenn, Jr., Ed.; Watkins, Julia D., Ed.
The conference reported here was held for nurse faculty and physicians from twenty-five family nurse practitioner (FNP) programs based in twenty-one states to provide the participants with an opportunity to consider their common curriculum problems and successes in FNP education. The first half of this booklet contains five paper presentations with the fourth and fifth papers followed by comments made by a reactor panel and the audience. The titles of the papers are (1) "The Potential of the Family Nurse Practitioner Movement," (2) "Five Questions of Family Nurse Practitioner Evaluation," (3) "Nursing Present Tense," (4) "The Role of the Family Nurse Practitioner: Implication for Curriculum Development," and (5) "Clinical Evaluation: An Examination of the State of the Art and Its Application to Nurse Practitioners." The remaining half of this booklet consists of five reports of group discussions held during the conference on adult medicine; child health curriculum; determinants of obstetrics and gynecology curriculum in nurse practitioner training; family and community; and the state of the art in teaching role realignment. A brief summary of conference recommendations concludes the report. (EM)
