SUMMARY:NP Week!
DESCRIPTION:Rio Grande Valley (11/1/2016) - The role of the nurse practitio
 ner (NP) will be showcased November 13 - 19\, 2016\, as NPs across the cou
 ntry celebrate more than 50 years of practice during National NP Week. In 
 the United States\, this distinguished group of health care professionals 
 number approximately 222\,000 strong with an additional 20\,000 NP student
 s graduating each year. Events held in communities around the country will
  acquaint local citizens with the role of NPs as providers of high-quality
 \, cost-effective\, personalized health care and will highlight the value

 come even more important. National NP Week brings visibility to the role o
 f the NP\, helping consumers make wise choices when selecting their health
