About

The National Association of Nigerian Nurse Practitioners USA, Dallas-Fort Worth (NANNPU-DFW) is an organization of advanced practice nurses of Nigerian origin resident in the United States of America. NANNPU-DFW is the first of its kind in the USA for these indigenous practitioners who have acquired a minimum of a Master's degree in their different practice specialties. The organization started as a support group for Nigerian Nurse Practitioners in Dallas Fort worth under the initiative of one of its members, who after a recollection of personal experiences and limiting stories of other Nigerian NPs and students believes the Nigerian NP community could do more to help, while also becoming more knowledgeable of practice and other health care activities in their areas.
