Advanced Practice Psychiatric Nurses are found in all areas of health care. They practice in primary care, — that is family medicine, internal medicine, pediatrics, and obstetrics and gynecology, prisons, home health care, hospitals — as well in outpatient and other subspecialties. APPNs receive a holistic education in health care and specialize in psychiatric and mental health care. Their education is ongoing after graduation through continuing education requirements and continual interaction with other health care providers.
