Pediatric Nursing
Working in a wide range of settings, from doctors' offices and community-based settings to hospitals and critical care facilities, Pediatric Nurse Practitioners provide care for children ranging in age from newborn to 21 years old. The Pediatric Nurse Practitioner focuses primarily on health promotion, disease prevention, and on the diagnosis and treatment of common illnesses and injuries in children. They also provide education and support to the families of these children.
