Nurse practitioners (NPs) are registered nurses with advanced training and a master's degree. Health Services NPs are board certified, credentialed and licensed by the state of MA. The NPs work independently and are able to assess medical problems, prescribe medications, treat ambulatory conditions and order appropriate tests. The NPs serve as the primary providers for the students.
The medical director, who is board certified in internal medicine, is responsible for the oversight of medical concerns and is available as a consultant regarding complex medical issues.
