Abstract:	Designed to assist nurse practitioner (NP) students and newly certified NPs alike, this quick, easy-to-use manual concisely explains everything NPs need to know for practice and transitioning into practice. The book guides the reader through the process of becoming a new nurse practitioner, from the decision to become an NP to selecting educational programs and obtaining licensure. This all-in-one reference contains learning objectives, checklists to facilitate important decision making, charts and tables with "hot topics" and key elements, and testimonials from practicing NPs. A special feature is the author's own poignant moments as both a new and experienced NP that will be helpful to any new nurse practitioner.
