Hello, CaseManager1947

Very glad to meet you here! In China ,Np program is very very new ,almost nurses have no clearly definition about it. So I just want to know more about it in America ,then broadcast it to China. As you know ,Np or APN has a long way to gain acceptance ,while we are just at the beginning ,so for us ,it needs a longer way ! Well , we have confidence!

Thank you for your expertise and hospitality!
