About Nurse Approved

Program Director, Nurse Approved

Alice Benjamin, MSN, ACNS-BC, FNP-C

As a board-certified family nurse practitioner and clinical nurse specialist with over 25 years of experience, I have provided expert care in critical care, emergency medicine, and critical care transport, managing complex patient populations and optimizing clinical outcomes.

My contributions to nursing education are grounded in my tenure as an associate nursing faculty member, where I mentored students and healthcare professionals to uphold the highest standards of clinical excellence and evidence-based practice.

A nationally recognized healthcare expert, I have served as a TV medical correspondent and health advocate, earning recognition for my contributions to public health and nursing advancement.

Dedicated to advancing the nursing profession, I leverage my expertise to foster knowledge dissemination, mentorship, and advocacy, equipping healthcare professionals to drive meaningful improvements in patient care and healthcare systems.

Everything we offer here is, Nurse Approved!
