What is an Advanced Practice Job?

Demand for health care services, including advanced practice jobs, has grown exponentially over the past few years and will continue to grow. Millions of Americans now have health insurance under the Affordable Care Act while the medical needs of the Baby Boomers continue to increase. The healthcare field will offer more and more advanced practice jobs, and employers will need healthcare providers to meet the growing demand.

Advanced practice providers are key members of the healthcare team. They have met advanced educational and clinical practice requirements, and often provide services that range from primary and preventive care to mental healthcare.

Advanced practice jobs can include:

  • Nurse Practitioners
  • Clinical Nurse Specialists
  • Certified Nurse Midwife
  • And more!
