About Us

Premier NP’s Nurse Practitioners act as physician extenders on behalf of the resident’s physician, entering into a collaborative agreement with the physician. Premier NP maintains that the nurse practitioner works closely with facility staff, including the Administrator, Director of Nursing and other nursing staff. As a result of working on behalf of the patient’s physician, higher levels of clinical care are available more routinely than relying solely on physician rounding. Premier NP offers many benefits to residents, families, facilities, management companies and attending physicians through our services.
