[quote=Anonymous]I think the article points out that education for NPs can be so inconsistent and vastly different depending on school. Georgetown NP program is legit. Online diploma mill? Nope. I’m a nurse and I wouldn’t trust some of my peers currently in NP schools as even bedside nurses. I’ve also noticed that Mental health/psych NP is becoming popular with people who have no experience in mental health. It’s terrible. I think NPs can be very helpful-even in the hospital. It’s nice to call the NP vs the doc for that pain med or simple orders. In my area of the hospital, NPs and PAs are there to help out with orders, discharges, escalate issues, etc. They are not making major treatment decisions and physicians are involved with major concerns. Don’t discount all NPs but ask about experience and schooling. [/quote]
