SIOUX FALLS, S.D., Nov. 10, 2021 — Natalie Braun, a certified nurse practitioner (CNP) in family medicine at Sanford Aberdeen Clinic, received an Advanced Practice Provider (APP) Award in Exemplary Professional Practice last month.

The Exemplary Professional Practice Award recognizes outstanding advanced professional practice in providing the highest quality care for those served by Sanford, by illustrating the alignment and integration of advanced practice with the mission, vision, philosophy and values that advanced practice and Sanford have adopted.

APPs are health care providers who work with physicians to care for patients. APPs see patients of all ages for primary, specialty and long-term care needs. They have the education and training to treat and care for patients with acute and chronic conditions, improve health and prevent disease.

Braun is also the 2020 Sanford Health Clinical Employee of the Year.
