The Care Blue APP functions as a part of the executive health team and works in conjunction with a multidisciplinary group.

The APP functions primarily in the clinic managing primary care of the identified population and may also work closely with multiple groups throughout UK Healthcare. The APP is aligned with the executive health team and is an integral part of the program.

In some instances the APP may have responsibilities for the same patient population in the consultative inpatient setting or serves as a resource for the inpatient team. The APP has a strong foundation in evidenced based practice and education and has a responsibility for ensuring an environment of safe quality care.

The APP demonstrates an advanced level of medical and nursing knowledge, clinical and technical competency, sound clinical judgment, professionalism as it relates to interpersonal and general communication skills, timely and compliant documentation, and takes responsibility for ongoing professional development and competency validation.
