The Adult-Gerontology Acute Care Nurse Practitioner (AGACNP) Program prepares advanced practice nurses to be providers of care to young adults (including late adolescents), adults, and older adults (including frail older adults) with acute, critical, and complex chronic illnesses. The AGACNP manages patients who are physiologically unstable, dependent on technology, vulnerable to complications, and require ongoing monitoring and intervention. Diagnostic reasoning, decision making, clinical management, inter-professional practice, and leadership skills are fostered.
