Listen Later

Family nurse practitioners (FNPs) who do not have acute care certification may be recruited to work in ICUs that lack enough acute care nurses, which is a challenge for both the ICU and the FNP. When the FNP moves on to another institution, that institution may not consider the FNP's ICU experience to be an adequate qualification. Host Diane C.
