The topic for an upcoming meeting

The upcoming meeting will be dedicated to the discussion concerning clinical intuition and diagnostic skills that should be possessed by a proficient NP specialist (Stewart & DeNisco, 2014). The speakers will dwell on the importance of being a cost-effective nursing practitioner and reveal several aspects that should be inherent in the analysis and reply procedure. The speakers will also explain how to learn to diagnose correctly without tests and process the evidence obtained during the examination (Stewart & DeNisco, 2014). The meeting is going to feature the top-class AANP specialists that are ready to share their knowledge with everyone present.
