Master of Science Family Nurse Practitioner’s Pinning and White Coat Ceremony
August 17 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am
Master of Science (MSN) Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) Pin. The pin is maroon and gold which are the colors for the University of Charleston.
Non Ducor Duco is a Latin term that means, “I am not led. I lead.” Family Nurse Practitioners are advanced practice Registered Nurses (APRN) who lead health care teams. FNPs assess, diagnose, and treat patients across the life span, from prenatal to elderly primary care. They play an increasingly important role in their health care communities. Our graduates will take an FNP certification examination which is an entry-level competency-based examination that tests clinical knowledge in families and individuals.
