The Program

The Post-Master’s Advanced Certificate in Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) prepares nurses with an advanced body of knowledge to provide mental health services across the lifespan. Graduates of the program are qualified for New York State (NYS) licensure as a PMHNP. Adding the PMHNP credential can: • Advance your professional goals by enhancing your current practice to include the diagnoses and management of psychiatric disorders and other acute and chronic mental health problems of adults and children. • In addition to primary care, open new employment options in settings such as: hospitals, public and private mental health clinics, schools, telemedicine settings, and private practice. Provide opportunities for expanding interprofessional collaborative arrangements to influence the quality and quantity of mental health services in your community. The Advanced Certificate in PMHNP is an online program with full- and part-time options and is available for a fall semester start only. Candidates entering the program with a non-clinical master’s degree may need to complete coursework outside of the degree requirements that include an on-campus requirement in Utica, NY.

Employment Opportunities

Employment prospects are promising. The HRSA Health Workforce: Behavioral Health Workforce Projections, 2017-2030 indicates that the total supply of all psychiatrists is projected to decline as retirements exceed new entrants. Rapid growth in supply of psychiatric nurse practitioners and psychiatric physician assistants may help blunt the shortfall of psychiatrists, but not fully offset it.
