What do Pediatric Nurse Practitioners do?

A Pediatric Nurse Practitioner (PNP) is a specialized Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) who provides comprehensive healthcare to infants, children, adolescents, and young adults, from newborns to early adulthood. 

PNPs assess, diagnose, and treat a wide range of acute and chronic illnesses; perform well-child check-ups; manage immunizations; and educate families on health and wellness. 

They work in various settings, including hospitals, clinics, and private practices, and can operate as primary care providers in states where they have full practice authority.

What they do

Assess and Diagnose: Conduct physical exams, developmental screenings, and interpret diagnostic test results. 

Treat Illnesses: Diagnose and treat common childhood illnesses and manage chronic conditions. 

Prescribe Medication: Order and prescribe medications for patients. 

Promote Health: Provide immunizations and educate families on preventive care and health management. 

Provide Care: Offer both well-child care and specialized acute care. 

Advocate for Patients: Act as liaisons between patients, families, and other healthcare providers. 

Environment

PNPs work in diverse environments, such as physicians’ offices, Clinics, Hospitals (including pediatric and children’s hospitals), and Urgent care facilities. 

Specialized Care

PNPs can specialize in two main areas: 

Primary Care: Focus on well-child care, routine check-ups, health screenings, and management of common illnesses.

Acute Care: Care for children with more serious or complex health conditions, often in hospital settings.
