I recently started a BSN-RN program a few months ago, and I'm graduating winter 2015. My goal is to become a Nurse Practitioner, still haven't decided on a certification though, but it has come to my attention that we're in for a change. Well in 2015 when I graduate. In 2015 it is recommend to have a DNP to practice as an NP? Therefore, I can say, "Hello, my name is Dr. Casabar and I will be your Nurse Practitioner for day"? Lol. Not so sure if we'll be able to say that, but it does have a nice ring to it.
I feel like I'm in and will be in school forever.. 2 years pre-nursing courses down, 3 years Bachelors of Science in Nursing in progress, and 3 years of a DNP program to go? Murder me now. Lol jk. Who here is in the same boat as i am?
