Primary Health Care Nurse Practitioner Certificate (PHCNP)

Nurse practitioners work in direct care, health promotion, and the treatment and management of chronic health conditions. They have an expanded scope of practice and can diagnose, order and interpret diagnostic tests, prescribe medications and perform certain procedures.

Toronto Metropolitan University’s Primary Health Care Nurse Practitioner (PHCNP) Certificate is an intensive program that prepares nursing professionals to write the College of Nurses of Ontario NP – Primary Health Care (Ontario) exam.

Admission to the PHCNP Certificate program is highly competitive. We give preference to registered nurses who hold a master’s degree in nursing and have continuous clinical experience that demonstrates critical thinking and the potential to work in a collaborative, holistic, family-centred practice or advance evidence-based practice.

Note - Tuition Fees is estimated.(For More Information Pls Contact To Our PSA Counselor.)
Tuition fees in the Masters of Nursing and PHCNP Certificate programs are course-based. Your fees will be calculated based on the number of courses that you take per term; one unit is equal to one course.

As a student of the School of Graduate Studies, ancillary fees also apply to cover health benefits, access to the athletic centre, and more.

Admission Requirement / Eligibility Criteria

The Primary Health Care Nurse Practitioner Certificate is a challenging, hands-on, full-time program that prepares motivated professional nurses to work as nurse practitioners.

Students have up to 3 years, or 9 terms, to complete the 7 required PHCNP Certificate courses. Motivated students can complete the program in less time, but it is very demanding. The program administrator can help you decide if it’s a good option for you.

The curriculum prepares students to apply legislative and ethical models to a variety of practice situations through assignments, seminar discussions, and clinical practice. These may include consultation, prescriptive authority, the ordering of laboratory and diagnostic tests and the certification of death.

Evidence-based practice principles are incorporated in each course to help assess, diagnose, and manage health issues appropriately. Discussion and assignments on effective strategies to influence health and social policy are also incorporated.

Instructors aim to enhance students’ capacity to contribute to knowledge development through critical questioning.
