About the Book

Advanced Practice Nursing: Evolving Roles for the Transformation of the Profession, Second Edition recognizes that the curriculum of advanced nursing must follow professional standards, and is therefore compiled of chapters relevant to various areas of advanced nursing practice. With the explosion of the DNP, the revision of the American Association of College of Nursing (AACN) Master’s Essentials, and the refinement and development of the clinical nurse leader role, this text is a timely resource for the next generation of advanced practice nurses and students.

Dr. DeNisco’s current clinical practice areas include internal medicine and women’s health care at a large federally qualified health center in Bridgeport, CT. Her scholarly interests include evidence-based treatment modalities for depression and anxiety disorders and she has published several articles on these topics.
