What is a Nurse Practitioner?
A
certified registered nurse practitioner (CRNP) may practice medicine under physician supervision.
A CRNP assesses a patient’s health status by getting health histories,
performing exams, and ordering and interpreting diagnostic tests. In a
pediatric practice, a nurse practitioner has special training to treat
problems of children and adolescents. The CRNP consults with a
pediatrician and establishes a treatment plan.
