MAAPPN (The Massachusetts Association of Advanced Practice Psychiatric Nurses) is a non- profit organization in the state of Massachusetts that exclusively represents the interests of advanced practice psychiatric nurses – both psychiatric clinical nurse specialists and psychiatric nurse practitioners.

Our mission includes legislative goals promoting access to sustainable fiscal policies that support the advanced practice psychiatric nurse as high quality, affordable and accessible providers.

Our speaker for the December MAAPPN meeting will be Kathy Adolina, PMHCNS, BC.  Kathy has a private practice in the Back Bay and specializes in treatment of adults and students with affective and anxiety disorders. She is a graduate of Boston College and long time member of NURS, MAAPPN Board Member and current Treasurer.   Kathy will be speaking about Psychogenomics in Clinical Practice.

Psychogenomic testing allows the opportunity to introduce precision into our prescribing practices. Patients who like personalized medicine, like the idea and payers are looking carefully at cost savings. Yet testing is not without caution. In this presentation, the opportunities and challenges are reviewed as these work in a private practice setting.  Payer policies, patient education and how treatment selection presents new opportunities in prevention are reviewed.
