Visionary Health Care for Children is Inspiration for NAPNAP Conference

Pediatric nursing calls for high-level critical thinking, compassion, and a cool head. These skills are crucial when caring for children and adolescents. The National Association of Pediatric Nurse Practitioners (NAPNAP) is offering key tools and the latest advances at its 31st Annual Conference Achieving Vision: Pediatric Health Care Beyond the Millennium, April 15-18, 2010, in Chicago, IL.

The event, which is designed for pediatric health care providers at all levels who work in both primary and acute care, will leave professionals informed and confident about the latest best practices in their specialty.

Over 1,300 pediatric nurse practitioners (PNPs) and health care providers are expected to attend, choosing from tracks that include Mental Health, Emerging Science, and Professional Issues, as well as additional courses in Pharmacology and Acute Care. The conference is known as the premier education event for PNPs and others who work in the pediatric health care arena.

Attendees will earn continuing nursing education (CNE) contact hours, enjoy special events, and network with colleagues. They will also meet with the industry’s most innovative exhibitors who include representatives from leading pharmaceutical and consumer products companies, as well as nonprofit institutions.
