ANP Advanced Nurse Practitioners (ANP) are trained specialist nurses. They have undertaken additional medical education in order to provide advanced nursing care and to prescribe medication. Nurse Practitioners can provide treatment and advice for many problems, which you may have seen a doctor for in the past. Their main areas of expertise are in the managements of common illnesses. The nurse practitioners can assess and examine you, make a diagnosis and provide advice and treatment including a prescription if required. They can make referrals to hospital doctors or other health care professionals, and admit patients into hospital when necessary. |
