American Association of Nurse Practitioners

Watch Sasha’s story of being diagnosed with diabetes, and who she chose for care.
Patients win when they have a choice of health care providers. Increasingly, patients are embracing prevention and early intervention to stay healthy and avoid health complications. Nurse practitioners (NPs) encourage health promotion and a comprehensive, wellness-first approach. Instead of waiting until something is wrong, NPs help their patients keep their health on track.
