The course of study in the AHN specialty courses focuses on health promotion, development and modification of health-related behaviors, human responses to illness and disruptive events, and health in an aging population with an increasing number of chronic conditions. During the course of study students have the opportunity to select a client population and appropriate preceptors for their practice courses. Both traditional and nontraditional settings are available to meet the student's objectives. These settings and preceptors offer rich experiences to the professional nurse for the development of advanced competencies. A 13 credit PM certificate is available. Credits required may vary depening upon prior educational preparation.
