Há muito interesse da Inglaterra e dos Estados Unidos na educação para a prática avançada da enfermagem (Advanced Pratice Nurses - APNs), principalmente quanto aos seus procedimentos, especialmente aqueles relacionados ao cuidado de emergência. Existem quatro categorias de Pratical Nurses (PN) nos EUA: enfermeira pratica (nurse practitioner - NP), enfermeira clínica especializada (clinical nurse specialist - CNS), enfermeira anestesista registrada e certificada (certified nurse anestesist- CRNA) e enfermeira parteira certificada (certified nurse midwife - CNM). Nos EUA, as APNs mais comumente encontradas no setor de cuidados de emergência são NPs e CNSs(25).
O critério para renovação da certificação varia de Estado para Estado e pode incluir o acúmulo específico de número de horas de prática clínica e créditos em Educação Continuada, desde o período de renovação. Dois exemplos de agências certificadoras são: American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) e a American Academy of Nurse Practitioners (AANP). A ANCC também requer a complementação do número de horas clínicas específicas no programa da APN - 500 horas para a CNS, por exemplo, como também um curso de farmacologia avançada, avaliação da saúde e patofisiologia. Uma vez certificada, a APN tem que passar por uma nova medida de qualificação para a recertificação(25).e acreditação profissional na Enfermagem são praticadas principalmente em países desenvolvidos e iniciaram-se no meio do século passado.

Reference: Enfermeiro/a (N.P's)

Reference information:
Encontrei esta citação.

-Se na America voce ficou doente, com dor de garganta, ou com aqueles problemas rotineiros de saude, vai receber a mesma qualidade de atendimento de um Physician’s Assistant (medico assistente) ou de um Nurse Practitioner (Enfermeiro).

Os medicos assistentes (P.A’s) ou enfermeiros (N.P’s) sao profissionais da saude que tiveram que estudar de 4 a 6 anos, com treinamento intensivo e tiveram que passar exames pra’ tirar suas licencas.

Ambos podem avaliar, diagnosticar e tratar problemas (fiquei sabendo que em muitos estados, eles podem ate’ prescrever medicacao). Nos consultorios e clinicas, um medico supervisiona o trabalho deles, nao se preocupe.

Parece que para compensar a diminuicao em numero de medicos, as organizacoes de saude tem aumentado o numero de P.A.’s e N.P.’s ultimamente. Quando voce precisa de atencao’ basica e primaria, as decisoes deles sao feitas junto com o medico.

Mas, se voce tem problemas cronicos, muitos diferentes problemas juntos, ou esta’ tomando varios remedios diariamente, procure um medico. Eles tem extensivo treinamento e sao mais capazes de manejar situacoes complexas do que P.A’s e N.P’s.
