This second didactic acute care course builds upon prior knowledge to address the core and specialty nurse practitioner competencies in the provision of care across the continuum of health care services to patients with complex acute, critical, and chronic health conditions for the full spectrum of adults. Using evidence-based practice, select complex multi-system illness will be discussed. There is included the evaluation and management, including pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic treatments as well as pertinent education for patients and their families. Emphasis is placed on sub-specialty care to gain experiences with special populations and commonly used devices and technology in acute care.
