Description
The American Academy of Ambulatory Care Nursing (AAACN) is the specialty nursing organization for nurses practicing in ambulatory care settings responsible for establishing and maintaining the standards for ambulatory care professional nursing practice. Ambulatory care is defined as outpatient care in which individuals stay less than 24 hours in the healthcare environment and then discharged to their residential situation following the care episode. This publication is an updated scope of practice statement and 16 revised standards for the clinical and administrative professional practice of ambulatory care registered nurses (RNs). The standards promote effective clinical and administrative management of increasingly complex ambulatory care RN roles and responsibilities in a changing healthcare environment.
