Hi.

My name is Barışhan (peacekhan). I'm Turkish Nursing student. I worked to be an anesthesiologist assistant. ( 4 high school year education )

I want to ask you a question.

How many certificates can a nurse general practitioner receive?

I want to be an NP with its own clinic in the future. so I wonder how many specialties I can get.

Specializes in Home Health, Primary Care.

What do you mean by "certificates?" Do you mean specialties? NP schools here in the US are divided up by populations and setting really...acute care vs primary care, across the lifespan vs only adults vs only neonates vs only pediatrics...and then you have women's health and psych. There are a few specialty certifications one can get once an NP but it would depend on your experience in the field in order to sit for said exams to obtain the certifications in those specialties. You can't just go and pick up many certifications without the needed experience.

Why dont you consider family np

Yes. I wanted talk about specialty. So, acute care or psychic.

Neden aile np'yi düşünmüyorsun

Actually. I'm still thinking. But I'm not sure if it's enough.

It would be great to be the only provider in a small and charming town or to be in a rural hospital. Like Virgin Rivers?

I want to be a versatile clinician. to be more of a general practitioner but anesthesiology science is still my passion.
