The SNAP (Saskatchewan Nursing Advanced Practice) model can be understood as a program design and a curricular framework of the CNPP (Collaborative Nurse Practitioner Program). SNAP was derived from the strong and advanced nursing practice model otherwise referred to as “Strong Model of Advanced Practice Nursing.” This model has gained recognition as a reliable and sound way of demonstrating the advanced practice of nursing in the context of modern international health.

SNAP model integrates nurses’ practitioner clinical skills with the intelligence of the systems, leadership and educational commitment. There are five domains that come together to define the competencies of the nurse practitioner in SRNA and they are: comprehensive care provided directly, practice that is informed by evidence, professional leadership, educative practice and systems support.

This means that CNPP applicants understand the essential concepts that are fundamental to nursing practice (University of Regina, 2013).
The objectives of the course are associated with these five domains. The practice of advanced nursing is unified...
