Abstract
The Department of Nursing would like to add the Adult Geriatric Primary Care Nurse Practitioner to its cadre of graduate programs. Students in this program would take all of the courses as those in the family Nurse Practitioner Track with the exception of two courses. Clinical placements are available of geriatric sites. This is being transmitted in conjunction with a proposal to the SUNY Nurse Emergency fund to assist SUNY campuses to expend their health care programs to meet critical nursing shortages. Securing this funding and adding this AGNP tract will allow the Department of Nursing tp partner with Oak Orchard Health Center to meet the need of staffing a mobile van that will be open 6 days/evenings per day.
