2009 NP Week: Letter from Governor PerdueFAQ About NPs
What is a Nurse Practitioner
The NP Council is a structural unit of
the North Carolina Nurses Association (NCNA). NCNA membership
is a prerequisite to Council membership and participation
in Council activities at all levels. The Council is divided
into geographic regions across the state. Each region
is a sub-structural unit of the Council and of NCNA. This
regional structure is designed to enhance communication,
networking, continuing education and leadership development
opportunities
at the grassroots level.
