I will be graduating this May from an ADN program and plan to pursue an RN-MSN degree starting in August.
I hope to gain a PRN hospital position and also a home health position either full time or part-time. However, I will take whatever new grad experience I can get! I am not too keen on working full-time as a floor nurse due to family obligations, but I will if need be. I hope to do it PRN while working home health or private duty.
If I worked full time in home health, do you think it would provide enough experience to become an family nurse practitioner? I understand that assessment skills must be strong in HH and feel that is good for a NP. I was speaking to my nurse preceptor at my clinical practicum and she said she doesn't think it is good experience prior to becoming an NP.
What are y'alls thoughts on this subject?!
Thank you!
