The uniformed services face a shortage of advanced practice nurses (APNs), including certified registered nurse anesthetists (CRNAs), certified nurse-midwives (CNMs), and nurse practitioners (NPs). Educational support is needed to fill these critical roles.

Area of Science:

Nursing
Military Health
Public Health

Background:

The uniformed services require a sufficient number of advanced practice nurses (APNs).
The Graduate School of Nursing (GSN) at USUHS plays a role in educating APNs for these services.

Purpose of the Study:

To assess the need for APNs within the Department of Defense and US Public Health Service.
To determine the GSN's role in educating APNs for uniformed services.

Main Methods:

Focused on three APN categories: CRNAs, CNMs, and NPs.
Analyzed current authorizations versus inventory and attrition rates.

Main Results:

A deficit of 192 APNs was identified across military services.

Attrition resulted in 154 APN losses in FY1993.

Significant shortages were noted for CRNAs (148) and NPs (40).

Conclusions:

There is a clear need for educational initiatives to prepare APNs for uniformed services.
The GSN can effectively complement existing educational programs to meet this demand.
