Hey all! I am in an MSN- FNP program. I have a scholarly paper due in August that requires me to interview (casually) an APN who works in a rural health care setting OR works with a population with health disparities. PM me if you can help me out :) TIA!

Info needed for paper include:

-identify their role, qualities and characteristics, advanced skills they exhibit in their role

-Examine their role, duties, educational preparation, and background and give an example of how their position/role impacts patient care

-Analyze any practice issues related to ethical issues in the deliveryof health care in the setting.

-Explain the impact of advanced nursing practice in light of current health economics in thissetting

These are really in depth questions and might be better handled in an in-person interview. I'm more than willing to help you but the answers to these questions are not quick and easy...

I agree I just dont know any APNs who work in a rural area.

Contact your states APRN organization

Have a list of questions prepared ahead of time.

(For example - Where did you go to school? How long did it take you to become an APN? What struggles did you faced? What do you do on a typical day? How many patients do you usually see? etc.)

Good luck ! I don't meet your criteria but I was able to interview an APN on here when I was a student for a role class and was forever grateful!
