Hello!

I feel a little crazed by the floors these days. I was wondering--what are other nursing options out there. I am going to get my PNP (more for the knowledge than actual practice i think). Is there a way I can educate and promote health to patients (maybe by working for companies)? ANY info would be appreciated!! Thank you. T.

Hi T.

I think I just responded to another one of your posts. Why not get your PNP and go into practice on the side--without giving up your job? Are you in Grad School?

If you are you will eventually start thinking "out of the box" and will come up with your own ideas for your practice. You could work in the community. You could be a consultant. You are only limited if you think you are.

Sincerely,

Ida
