Advanced Practice Provider Week 2025
This year, from September 22nd to September 26th, we proudly celebrate Advanced Practice Provider (APP) Week. This is a special time dedicated to recognizing the incredible contributions of Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs), Nurse Practitioners (NPs), and Physician Assistants (PAs) across the nation.
These highly skilled professionals are essential to our healthcare system. They enhance patient access to care, improve outcomes, and bring a wealth of knowledge and compassion to their roles every single day. APP Week provides a perfect opportunity for all of us colleagues, patients, and healthcare organizations to express our gratitude and appreciation for their tireless work.
Honoring Our Advanced Practice Providers
Advanced Practice Providers are at the forefront of patient care, often serving as primary care providers, specialists, and critical members of surgical teams. Their advanced clinical training and expertise allow them to diagnose and treat illnesses, manage chronic conditions, and provide comprehensive care to diverse populations. Let's take a moment to acknowledge the unique roles they play.
Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs)
CRNAs are masters of anesthesia care, ensuring patient safety and comfort before, during, and after surgical and procedural interventions. They work in a variety of settings, from major medical centers to rural hospitals, providing essential services that make modern medicine possible. Their vigilance and expertise are truly indispensable.
Nurse Practitioners (NPs)
Nurse Practitioners are a cornerstone of patient care, offering a holistic approach that combines clinical expertise with a focus on health promotion and disease prevention. Whether in a family practice, an acute care hospital, or a specialty clinic, NPs empower patients to take charge of their health and lead healthier lives.
Physician Assistants (PAs)
Physician Assistants are versatile and collaborative clinicians who practice medicine on healthcare teams with physicians and other providers. They conduct physical exams, diagnose and treat illnesses, and provide a broad range of medical services. Their adaptability and dedication make them invaluable assets in any healthcare setting.
Join the Celebration
During the week of September 22nd-26th, we encourage you to celebrate the APPs in your life and workplace. A simple "thank you" can go a long way in acknowledging their hard work and dedication.
