Overview As a nurse practitioner, patients presenting with dermatological conditions will be a common occurrence that you will need to be prepared to diagnose, monitor, and treat.

This activity features Dr. Margaret Fitzgerald, a Family Nurse Practitioner with vast expertise in NP certification preparation and continuing education. In this presentation, Dr. Fitzgerald will provide evidence based education with the latest guidelines for identification and management of impetigo in a pediatric patient.
