PA vs NP in Nebraska

Hi all, I was wondering if you thought NPs or PAs were more favorable in NE? Which have better working conditions, pay etc? I find that NP/PA are very similar and I am trying to figure out which is more favorable in NE? Thanks

In our small hospital/rural health clinic we have both NP's and PA's. The APRN's have more prescribing powers, especially with narcs etc.. Another thing I notice is that the NP's have much better background knowledge than a PA, order to get into PA school all it takes is a Bachelor's degree, which does not have to be in a health related field.
