Lead Population Health Improvement
We live in a complex, constantly changing world filled with challenges that threaten our entire population’s health. The COVID-19 pandemic has emphasized the need for nurse leaders to “embrace the connection” between nursing, medicine, and public health—to fully understand the intricacies of our communities and work together to implement strategies to improve healthcare for everyone. As the transition of today's healthcare from an acute care to outpatient setting increases, nurse leaders have an important role in the outpatient setting by overseeing and providing patient care.
Positively impact societal healthcare outcomes while progressing in your role as a professional nurse with an M.S.N. in Advanced Population Health Nursing from Nova Southeastern University. This track will prepare you to work in partnerships with communities, focus on improving the systems that challenge the health and wellbeing of populations, and effectively lead population health promotion to improve, protect, and develop policies globally.
This online M.S.N. program meets the needs of today by broadening your nursing scope and qualifying you to reach wider audiences. Change the health care system, and your career, for the better.
