APEA Clinical Guidelines in Primary Care

Published

I originally posted this in the Canadian forum, but since I've received no responses, I thought I would post here as well.
I'm re-certifying as a FAA NP. I'm wondering if any NP students (American or Canadian) have found success using the APEA (Advanced Practice Education Associates) resources? Specifically, I'm wondering if you have found the APEA "Clinical Guidelines in Primary Care" resource to be useful in your clinical practice? Canada doesn't seem to have anything similar and the book looks like it could be useful.

I can't say I have had "success" with using the APEA resources as I'm still in NP school and haven't taken any practice boards yet, but part of my curriculum is to attend their 2-day seminar every July with the author/CEO Amelie Hollier and a few others. Their 8 hour, 2 day lectures were amazing. Very informative, short, sweet and to the point in terms of what you should and need to know on the main conditions and medications. Amelie is a great teacher and lecturer and everything she teaches about is easy to understand and take in. Hope this helps a bit if you are interesting in attending their lectures. I do have a few of their books which I bought more to help me out with clinical rather than for testing (I got Amelie's pocket book for antibiotics and her main primary care manual). As a student, it was definitely worth paying for, twice actually. Our 2nd time with her lectures again are in July, a few weeks before we graduate.
