SilverArc APN is about supporting your Health and Practice.
Click this link if you are wondering "What exactly is a Nurse Practitioner?"
A brief note about our SilverArc logo:
When most people are asked to describe an arc they move their hand in a pattern imitating the rainbow. An overhead arch. I have always considered an overhead arch as a limit on my potential. One friend considered the overhead arch as a roof or safe place.
In our logo of the convex or bowl shaped silver arc represents a place of support with an unlimited ceiling. A place where healthy plans and dreams can be created, nurtured, and realized.
Paul Kapsar RN MSN APN has had a 38+ year healthcare career. His introduction was as a hospital orderly, moving on to his RN in 1977 from Saint Vincent Health Center School of Nursing in Erie Pennsylvania, Bachelors Degree in Nursing from Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania [yes, it is a real university www.sru.edu] and a Masters In Nursing as a Family Nurse Practitioner in 1999 from the combined Clarion/Slippery Rock Family Nurse Practitioner program. His career included staff nurse, nurse manager, emergency preparedness and management, reserve military officer, hospital information systems manager, university nursing instructor, author, web designer, jail health administration, full time Family Practice Nurse Practitioner, and entrepreneur. Paul regularly acts as a preceptor to students from various Nurse Practitioner programs.
This website is a window to the practice that represents Paul's dream to provide holistic patient care to the full person and fulfill his desire to give something back to his profession. Since opening the practice in March he has found a wonderful ally in pain management by incorporating care by Kelly Sanders LMT in the pain management regimen. In addition to "The massage you need...Not the massage you THINK you need." Kelly offers BioMat therapy for those with chronic pain from muscle, arthritic, or tension causes. Patients tell me "I melted right into the BioMat. I have not felt this good in five years." Call Kelly at (702) 463-770 to schedule an appointment.
If I have planned well some tidbit found here will be the one you need to improve your patients health care status and perhaps your own self care.
