Rooted in the principles of compassion, advocacy, and social justice, advanced practice nursing emphasizes the ethical mandate to provide care without discrimination. Federal protections such as the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act safeguard access to medical services and confidentiality, reinforcing NPs' responsibility in fostering inclusive health care environments. Yet, policy frameworks alone are not enough. Nurse practitioners must navigate real-world barriers, including restrictive state laws and fear-driven health care avoidance among undocumented individuals. Through direct patient care, advocacy, and legal partnerships, NPs can mitigate disparities and empower marginalized communities. This column highlights the crucial role of NPs in advancing a more inclusive health care system and explores practical ways to bridge policy with practice, ensuring every patient receives dignified, high-quality care.","PeriodicalId":17179,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners","volume":"37 6","pages":"321-322"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144208846","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study addresses barriers to student NP's and PA's ability to prescribe buprenorphine by examining knowledge and attitudes toward prescribing medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD), subjective norms and perceived behavioral control surrounding prescribing MOUD, and the intention to prescribe MOUD among NPs and PAs. Participants were 120 students enrolled in the NP or PA program at 3 large universities in the southeastern United States. Before and after engagement in the 8-hour Waiver Training, participants completed a survey to obtain measures of knowledge, attitudes toward prescribing MOUD, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, and intention to prescribe MOUD. Results demonstrated increased knowledge regarding MOUD and prescribing practices from pre- to post-training. Students reported being significantly more likely to prescribe buprenorphine, methadone, and naltrexone after completing the waiver training, as well as stronger attitudes that MOUD is beneficial, useful, good, effective, and relevant. Student subjective norms did not significantly change from pre- to post-training, although perceived control significantly increased. Incorporation of training and treatment of patients with MOUD is critical for continued increases in the number of waivered providers.","PeriodicalId":17179,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144159850","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A convenience sample of NPs working with adult male patients were recruited among attendees of the 2023 American Association of Nurse Practitioners (AANP) National Conference. Respondents completed a one-time, anonymous, online survey assessing recall of the amount of time dedicated to learning about various men's urologic/sexual/reproductive health issues.Results: Ninety NPs completed the survey, averaging 9.9 ± 6.9 years in practice. 84% of participants felt that their NP program offered more content focused on women's health care needs compared with men's health content. Using a 0 (not prepared) to 10 (thoroughly prepared) Likert scale for a response to \"How well do you feel your NP program prepared you to manage the specific health care needs of,\" the average was 4.1 for men and 6.9 for women.Conclusions: This is the first project to quantify men's health topics as part of the NP curriculum, creating groundwork for discussion of apparent disparity in gender-specific curricula content and a potential gap in NP knowledge relative to men's urologic/sexual/reproductive health issues.Implications: These results suggest a need for a formalized men's health curriculum to complement the women's health curriculum present in most NP programs.","PeriodicalId":17179,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144078826","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This work includes the International Council of Nurses' broad understanding of mentorship to bring an international perspective.Purpose: The aim of this work is to propel development of strong mentorship programs for APNs who may be new to practice or in a transitional phase to a subspecialty.Methodology: A thorough evaluation of contemporary literature was conducted. Walker and Avant classic framework was used to analyze and dissect the concept of mentorship for APNs.Results: Effective mentorship of APNs should include facilitation of knowledge, confidence, and competence, as well as emotional and psychosocial support. There should be a transition period where the APN can develop identity and professional skills and resolve \"imposter syndrome.\" Mentorship needs to be recognized as separate from preceptorship, orientation, or career planning.Conclusions: Mentorship should occur during the transitional period of professional development. It should include emotional and cognitive support to help develop competence and confidence. The mentor needs support to have time and resources to support the mentee. It is ideal for mentors to be seasoned APNs.Implications: All APNs should have access to mentorship as part of their transition to a new scope of practice. Effective mentorship is best provided by experienced APNs. Mentorship should be recognized as separate from preceptorship and orientation. Mentorship should be a long-term commitment, with time and resources allocated.","PeriodicalId":17179,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143970927","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite the growing prevalence of AD, management of this common condition remains suboptimal. To address knowledge and practice gaps related to cognitive evaluation and Alzheimer's diagnosis and treatment, the American Association of Nurse Practitioners (NPs) developed a 1.5-contact hour NP-focused continuing education (CE) program on AD. Changes in learner knowledge, competence, and confidence were assessed with preactivity and postactivity surveys; qualitative follow-up interviews were conducted to evaluate retention of CE material and behavior changes. In total, 4,793 learners (NPs, 93.6%) who completed the activity and self-reported providing patient care were included in the outcomes analysis. In the pre-activity assessment, notable knowledge and competence deficiencies were identified related to the diagnosis, classification, and pharmacotherapeutic management of AD. The CE activity was associated with significant improvements in knowledge and competence, with a 20-percentage point increase in correct response rate from the pre-activity to post-activity survey (p < .001). Learner confidence in their ability to perform key clinical tasks related to Alzheimer's management also improved. Twelve NPs participated in follow-up interviews; most reported that the CE activity reinforced their current practices. Despite improvements in knowledge and competence, certain knowledge gaps persisted, and learners identified several ongoing barriers to optimal management, including lack of access to specialists. Given the changing Alzheimer's landscape, ongoing educational interventions targeted to the NP workforce are needed to serve the growing population of adults at risk for AD.","PeriodicalId":17179,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144016540","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Decision aids are one method to provide treatment-based information and enhance shared decision making. This pilot study aimed to develop and evaluate the effect of a web-based decision aid on GAT in a pediatric gender care clinic. This cross-sectional, pre-, and postintervention design study included treatment-naive TGD youth aged 13-25 years or caregivers ( N = 10). Participants were evaluated for their knowledge, fertility attitudes, decisional conflict, and acceptability of the intervention. All participants had high mean GAT knowledge (7.8 [SD = 1.3] vs. 7.4 [SD = 1.8], p = .509) and low mean decisional conflict (18.1 [SD = 19.9] vs. 10.9 [SD = 12.9], p = .187) scores pre- and postintervention. The decision aid reduced decisional conflict in both youth and caregivers but had no change in knowledge scores. Many youth did not want children (66.7%) but felt it was important to learn about the effects of GAT on future fertility (100%). Most participants (80%) found that the decision aid was helpful for their decision-making process. Future testing is needed to evaluate its usefulness in a larger, more diverse sample.","PeriodicalId":17179,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143975055","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To meet growing health care demands, NPs and PAs have increased levels of autonomy, face early productivity expectations, and care for increasingly complex patients. This paper aims to describe, define, and standardize the role of the advanced practice education and professional development specialist across organizations. Using survey methodology, an anonymous survey was emailed to an informal group of advanced practice educators. The survey was sent out three times over approximately 8 weeks, with the last survey sent after the annual National Association of Pediatric NPs meeting. Of the 24 survey respondents, there were 13 different titles. Most respondents (75%) had worked as an APP for over 10 years. Most providers in educator roles were new to the position; 33% had been in the role for less than 1 year, and 29% for 1-3 years. Fifty percent of respondents were matrixed to the entire health system, whereas 42% stated their work is delineated to a specific department. Only 17% of survey respondents felt that leaders at their organization understood their role as advanced practice educators. As advanced practice leadership roles become more formalized with focused initiatives, including onboarding, student placement, and professional development, the educator and professional development role must be clearly defined. Standardizing the title and role responsibilities of the educator and professional development specialist is crucial to supporting a robust, engaged, and expert workforce, thus improving provider and family satisfaction and quality of care.","PeriodicalId":17179,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144023754","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
