Abstract
As the role of the Acute Care Nurse Practitioner (ACNP) gains more recognition, ACNPs as well as prospective employers are eager to incorporate the position into a practice setting. Because the role is in its infancy, there has been limited experience from which to draw on to provide guidance in ACNP role implementation within a practice, either private or institutional. This article will provide foundational information and strategies on how to integrate the ACNP role into a practice setting. These strategies will be useful to not only the ACNP, but also nurse administrators, case managers, clinical nurse specialists, and nurse educators in acute and critical care who are responsible for seeking innovative ways to maintain seamless quality and cost-effective patient care.
