ANY NON_PRESCRIBING NPs?

Published

Are there any NPs that have a role in their job that does not have them prescribing? Please tell me about it. Is it possible to be NP and not prescribe. What NP route would that be?

I am about to start at a Medspa doing preoperative H&P's. I will not be required to Rx.

I was interested in a Pre-op clinic NP job a while ago, that involved no prescribing.

No, not too interesting. Mostly pulling any pertinent patient history from various MD notes and then completing a limited physical and filling in the blanks of the assessment as well as educating on NPO status, what to expect day of surgery etc etc...
