Abstract

Objective: To discuss how doctoral education, specifically the doctorate of nursing practice (DNP) can promote changes in advanced practice nursing. Data Sources: Medline, CINAHL, PubMed. Conclusion: Variations continue to exist in educational curricula, program plans, and scholarly projects, leading to a lack of consistency in experiential learning. At this point in time it is too early in the DNP implementation process to determine ultimate impact. Implications for Nursing Practice: Continuous program self-assessment and evaluation of DNP education programs will be of paramount importance to assure program quality and optimization of health trajectories.
