I'm passionate about cardiology and am considering being an outpatient cardiac nurse practitioner, but I hear the NP profession is looking quite grim (supply more than exceeds demand, grossly underpaid, overworked, etc.). What's the future looking like for NPs, particularly those in an outpatient cardiac clinic? Is there a light at the end of the tunnel? Or should I look for something else? I have my BSN, four years of bedside under my belt, and am studying for my CVRN, if that helps. Also when and if I go to NP school, it will be a brick-and-mortar. Thank you so much for the responses!
