Show Your Profession Some Love This Valentine's Day!

Posted over 4 years ago


This Valentine’s Day, show your love for your profession, your fellow NPs and your patients by joining the largest state organization dedicated to nurse practitioners in the country.

Access to quality health care is at the forefront of everybody’s minds, particularly lawmakers who have convened for the 87th Legislative Session, so now is the perfect time to join TNP’s efforts as we work to improve the professional climate for NPs everywhere in the state and ensure you can treat the patients who need you now more than ever. This session we are advocating for legislative priorities, including:

  • Removing the state mandate for obtaining outdated, often costly physician delegation contracts 
  • Schedule II prescriptive authority
  • APRN DNR/death certificate signature authority
  • Nursing education/graduate nursing education 

In addition to adding your voice to our legislative and regulatory efforts, TNP members also enjoy a wide range of other benefits, including:

  • Texas-Specific CE Requirements, now available on demand on TNP’s Online CE Center
  • Spring Pharmacology Conference, with live, virtual, and enduring options – registration now open
  • New Media and Messaging Tool Kit
  • NP Handbook (available via e-book or printed copy on Amazon)
  • Exclusive student member Facebook page
  • Rural Health Conference and Toolkit – July 2021
  • Development of new interest groups (DEI, Obesity, Rural Health, Students and Practice Owners)

To continue our mission of empowering nurse practitioners, advancing our profession and improving the healthcare of all Texans through a strong, unified voice, TNP needs the support of NPs like you. Show your profession and Texas patients some love by joining or renewing your membership today.
