The professional designation as Fellow of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners (FAANP) is the highest professional designation for any nurse practitioner (NP). The Fellows of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners (AANP) operate the FAANP program and annually invite colleagues that have made a significant impact on the NP profession for consideration of this prestigious designation. Since its inception in 2000, nearly 700 NPs, or less than 1% of the membership, have been inducted as FAANPs. The number of candidates for consideration has continued to rise given that there are more than 75,000 members, many of whom have made significant contributions to health care. This article provides updates regarding the Fellows application process and provides guidance for both the candidate and the sponsors on how to prepare a competitive application.
美国执业护士协会会员（FAANP）这一专业称号是任何执业护士（NP）的最高专业称号。美国执业护士协会（AANP）的会员负责运营FAANP项目，并每年邀请对NP职业有重大影响的同事来考虑授予这一享有盛誉的称号。自2000年设立以来，已有近700名NP被授予FAANP称号，占会员总数不到1%。鉴于该协会有超过75000名会员，其中许多人对医疗保健做出了重大贡献，因此考虑授予该称号的候选人数量持续增加。本文提供了有关会员申请流程的最新信息，并为候选人和推荐人提供如何准备有竞争力申请的指导。
