PARSIPPANY, N.J., Nov. 7, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Point of Care Network (POCN) is the largest network of nurse practitioners (NPs) and physician assistants (PAs) in America and started America's Top NP Program 3 years ago with the goal of recognizing and celebrating influential and impactful NPs practicing today. While physicians have been able to nominate their peers for various "Top Doctor" listings for many years the ATNP Awards has been a vehicle to recognize the top members of the NP profession.

POCN and the ATNP Awards recognize outstanding NPs annually. The nominating process started in March allowing NPs and PAs to nominate a fellow NP who is demonstrating excellence in patient care, professional and practice development, and community outreach and involvement.  Announcement of the awards coincides with NP Week 2019 taking place November 10 – 16.

This year's recipients are:

According to the American Association of Nurse Practitioners (AANP) there were more than 270,000 licensed NPs in the U.S. last year with more than 28,700 completing their academic programs in 2018.  It is POCN's mission to be the catalyst of opportunities by enabling better clinical, professional, and personal outcomes for all nurse practitioners throughout their careers.

"NPs continue to provide an increasingly important role in a growing number of healthcare disciplines across the nation" said Richard Zwickel, Founder and CEO of Point of Care Network (POCN).  "We are so pleased to be on the forefront of recognizing NPs for their outstanding achievements throughout the healthcare system."
