ACNP hosting annual Nurse Practitioner Week (12th-18th December 2022)
1st December 2022
During NP Week 2022, the ACNP wants to celebrate and educate Australian communities on what makes a Nurse Practitioner different, and why this is essential to the future of healthcare in Australia.
NP's are proud of their nursing background, and carry with them the nursing philosophy of kindness, care, empathy, and the desire to help others. This philosophy also underpins NP practice and contributes to positive outcomes for NP's, their patients, and communities.
In 2022, the NP Week campaign highlights two incredible NP's:
• Jane Laidlaw, NP, General Practice, TAS
• Kim Kaim, NP, Chronic & Hard to Heal Wounds, QLD
Both Nurse Practitioners are an inspiring example of how NP's are the essential difference in health care in Australia. They saw a real need to help the community and have a desire to help their patients, and communities.
