For Advanced Practice Providers

The SPD has received many requests to help define the scope of practice for advanced practice providers working with pediatric dermatologists. In response, the Workforce Committee developed guidelines that were approved by the SPD Executive Committee. These guidelines are not intended as a mandate, but rather were created to assist pediatric dermatologists in their practice.

Guidelines covering the pathogenesis, patient assessment, treatment plan, and patient/parent counseling for these can be found in the Members Only Area of this site.
