Does the army have emergency room nurse practioners or NPs that work in the er? If so what do they get to do?

Hello. Good for you that you are exploring options for professional nurses in the military. In order to learn accurate answers to your questions , it would probably be helpful if you call or visit the nearest military recruitment office in your area. I enjoyed working as a pediatric nurse practitioner in a non-military clinic for several years. Briefly I considered joining the Air Force Reserves, but I decided I did not want to commit to travel away from my husband and son for the monthly weekend and annual summer requirements. Best wishes.

I will do that. Thanks so much.

You may also want to search the Gov and Military nursing forum here on allnurses.com. Also, when you speak to a recruiter, make sure you are speaking to a healthcare recruiter otherwise you will most likely be hearing about enlistment opportunities.

I know they use ER PAs for sure. I have also seen NPs working ER Overflow and Clinic at Army bases.

That is good to know. Sorry but I am 16 in high school so what is the er overflow.

Google it.. Good luck
