2 As president of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners (AANP), it is my pleasure to invite you to join your colleagues at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center in New Orleans for the AANP 2015 National Conference, June In addition to being a city where every day is a reason to celebrate, NPs also will be celebrating a significant milestone of our own. The first NP program was launched 50 years ago at the University of Colorado in 1965 by Drs. Loretta Ford and Henry Silver. This heralded the beginning of what has grown into more than 2,000 programs in 400 universities across the country, producing approximately 14,000 new NP graduates each year. You have come to expect the best opportunities at an AANP conference and the 2015 conference will not disappoint. We have up to contact hours of continuing education (CE) offerings planned, updates on state and federal policy, time to network with your colleagues, an exhibit hall filled with the latest goods and services for NPs and students, and of course, dynamic speakers who will share their unique perspectives on the role of the nurse practitioner in the ever-changing health care environment. Our opening keynote speaker will bring a whole new perspective to attendees when she shares her experiences as an RN and how she transitioned from that role to being one of the best known entertainers in the world. Naomi Judd has a fascinating story to tell and one you will want to hear about in person. To start this year s conference New Orleans style, we are having the grand opening of the exhibit hall immediately following the opening general session. A Mardi Gras-type procession will lead you from the opening general session to the opening of the exhibit hall, where you will be treated to a 50th NP anniversary celebration reception and an opportunity to explore the many exhibiting companies that are part of the 2015 conference. I look forward to seeing you in New Orleans and visiting with you about the fabulous growth of the NP role and where we are going in the future. Make plans now you won t want to miss this conference and celebration!

SPECIAL INITIATIVE AANP believes in giving back to the host city, New Orleans, by providing its conference attendees the opportunity to show their support for the community. This year we will partner with Dress for Success a non-profit, volunteer driven organization that works with over 50 greater New Orleans area agencies to identify disadvantaged women who, with a little help, can gain employment and economic independence. All conference participants of the AANP 2015 National Conference are invited to donate to a clothing drive that may help someone take that all important step on the road to a "new" life. AANP is assisting by collecting professional clothing, new or gently used, that women getting back into the work force can wear to a job interview and hopefully, on the job. Most needed items are suits and tops (sweaters and blouses), but Dress for Success also accepts dress pants and skirts, and accessories such as shoes and purses. Make plans now to attend conference and start setting aside the item(s) of new Picture from 2012 National Conference Clothing Drive in Orlando, FL and like-new clothing you want to bring with you to donate in support of this conference special initiative. Let s show New Orleans we care by combining our efforts to make a difference in someone s life! celebrating 50 years of nurse practitioners 3

Bauer, PhD, FAANP(H) GENERAL SESSION (1.0 hr CE) Conference Closing: Annual Membership Meeting & Closing Keynote 50 Years of the Nurse Practitioner: The Past, Present & Future. Julie Fairman, PhD, RN, FAAN and Jeffrey C. Bauer, PhD, FAANP(H) Fifty years of nurse practitioner practice is truly a milestone. The history of nurse practitioner practice is quite remarkable and dynamic. And, the historical context is critical for our understanding of the integration of research, education and clinical practice. Dr. Julie Fairman, Director of the Barbara Bates Center for the Study of the History of Nursing, author of Making Room in the Clinic: Nurse Practitioners and the Evolution of Modern Health Care, will discuss how the past can inform and transform the present and future. Dr. Jeff Bauer, an internationally recognized health care futurist and medical economist, will discuss future trends in the health care system and their implications for nurse practitioners. He has published more than 250 articles, books, web pages and videos on health care delivery, and speaks frequently about key trends in health care, medical science, technology, information systems, reimbursement, public policy and health reform. Please join us for this informative session as we reflect on NP practice and the health care delivery models for the next 50 years, and how we can be strategically positioned to meet the challenges.
