Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner Program Companion and Board Certification Exam Review Workbook

Every year, nearly 5,000 US psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioners (PMHNP) sit for the ANCC board exam. Upon passing, PMHNPs become board-certified and eligible for licensure in their respective states, as well as eligible to apply for a DEA license to write prescriptions. However, the extensive content covered on the board exam often exceeds what is taught in Master's of Science in Nursing programs tailored for PMHNPs.
Suitable for both PMHNP students and advanced nurses preparing for board certification, this PMHNP Program Companion and Review Workbook serve as a comprehensive guide from Day 1 of the PMHNP program through exam preparation.
The book is structured logically, progressing from fundamental nursing topics (e.g., lab values, ethics, public health) to psychiatric-mental health specific content (e.g., assessment and diagnosis, major psychiatric disorders, psychopharmacology, therapeutic modalities). Additionally, it covers essential advanced practice nursing areas like leadership, quality improvement, and biostatistics.
What sets this workbook apart is its interactive approach to learning. Through charts, tables, fill-in-the-blanks, matching exercises, and mnemonics, learners actively engage with the material. Answers and explanations are provided for all practice activities, ensuring comprehension and retention.
Moreover, the accompanying Springer Nature Flashcard app offers almost 2,000 practice test questions, allowing learners to access study material conveniently on-the-go via their phone, tablet, or computer. It's an engaging and effective method to reinforce learning. The PMHNP Program Companion and Review Workbook is an invaluable resource for anyone pursuing excellence in psychiatric-mental health nursing practice.
