Advanced Nursing Practice in Acute and Critical Care
The ANPACC listserv was started by Nancy Szaflarski RN, PhD, FCCM in 1997 and was initially co-sponsored by the Nursing Section of the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) and the University of Pennsylvania, School of Nursing. The current moderator of the ANPACC is Judy Verger RN, MSN, CRNP jtv@nursing.upenn.edu
Purpose:
The purpose of the ANPACC electronic discussion group is to enhance communication among clinical nurse specialists, nurse practitioners, educators, researchers, physicians, and others who are interested in advanced nursing practice in the clinical fields of acute and critical care. Discussion is focused exclusively on issues of concern to advanced practice nurses including clinical issues such as patient care problems, ethical dilemmas and case studies; research utilization; role issues; scope of practice; credentialing, certification and licensure; economic, legal and regulatory issues; effective collaboration; upcoming educational programs and career opportunities.
Netiquette Rules for the ANPACC Listserv:
Some guidelines must be followed to keep the aims of this listserv in perspective. Please read the following rules:
- Remember the prime purpose of the listserv is to discuss issues germane to advanced nursing practice. So, all messages should have some thread that most members are interested in.
- Keep in mind that anything communicated via the listserv is now in writing and will be read by many. The content can also be distributed elsewhere. So BE CAREFUL.
- When replying to a message, DO NOT include the ENTIRE message to which you are responding. If you feel it's necessary include part of the original message.
- If you have a continuing disagreement with another member, don't hash it out over the Net; rather, take it outside the listserv and send individual mail to the individual.
- Please use a "signature" at the end of your message with your name, address, affiliation, and phone/FAX number. Identifying each other will assist our communication.
- Avoid offensive language or racist/sexist remarks. Remember that this is a listserv for professionals and such comments will not be tolerated.
- Try to keep your messages short and to the point.
- Patients should not be identified.
- The "Subject" title should accurately reflect your note's content.
