In the article that appeared on page 359 of the July/August issue (1), the authors wrote in error: "The 2004 American Association of Critical-Care Nurses position statement endorsed the DNP degree as the appropriate degree for entry into practice for advanced practice nurses." The sentence should be "The 2004 American Association of Colleges of Nursing position statement endorsed the DNP degree as the appropriate degree for entry into practice for advanced practice nurses." Also, the correct reference information (Reference 3) for this endorsement is below.
