The development of a standardized dermatology residency program for the clinical doctorate in advanced nursing
1DNP Dermatology Residency Program, University of South Florida, USA.
Abstract:
Skin cancer is occurring at epidemic proportions. It will be vital for health care professionals to be prepared with the skills necessary to detect and treat malignant lesions. Studies show a deficiency in basic dermatologic training in medical and nursing programs. As current programs are evaluated and future programs develop, it will be important for leaders to consider including formal didactic and clinical training in dermatology. A multidisciplinary approach that includes physicians, nurses, and other health care professionals is crucial in overcoming this health care crisis.
