PROVIDE CRITICAL CARE AND HELP YOUR PATIENTS LIVE A HEALTHIER LIFE.
The health care system is facing several challenges, including the rising number of Americans living with chronic illness. According to the CDC, 6 in 10 people live with at least one chronic disease, like heart disease and stroke, cancer, or diabetes, while 4 in 10 adults have two or more chronic conditions.* Adult-gerontology acute care nurse practitioners can help patients in critical situations, manage their conditions once stable, and educate them on living a healthier lifestyle.
Hawai‘i Pacific University’s MSN-AGACNP program prepares you to specialize in acute care through hands-on learning in applied practice, with a focus on caring for a variety of populations, including vulnerable, at-risk individuals. HPU embeds transcultural awareness into all nursing programs, giving graduates a truly holistic understanding of patient care.
