An interview with Pennsylvania State representative Tarik Khan, PhD, FNP-BC.
Abstract: Nurse practitioners (NPs) take on diverse and essential roles. In an exclusive interview, Representative Tarik Khan, PhD, FNP-BC, highlights the impact NPs can have in the political arena. Transitioning from an NP to a legislator in Pennsylvania, Dr. Khan's journey reflects his commitment to health care reform, driven by hospital closures, lack of patient care access, and the COVID-19 pandemic. Elected in 2022, Dr. Khan leverages his health care background to address a wide range of legislative issues, passing significant bills. He advocates for NPs to engage politically, emphasizing their unique perspective and problem-solving skills. Dr. Khan's story underscores the transformative potential of NPs in shaping public policy and advancing systemic change.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners (JAANP) is a monthly peer-reviewed professional journal that serves as the official publication of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners.
Published since 1989, the JAANP provides a strong clinical focus with articles related to primary, secondary, and tertiary care, nurse practitioner education, health policy, ethics and ethical issues, and health care delivery. The journal publishes original research, integrative/comprehensive reviews, case studies, a variety of topics in clinical practice, and theory-based articles related to patient and professional education. Although the majority of nurse practitioners function in primary care, there is an increasing focus on the provision of care across all types of systems from acute to long-term care settings.
