Hey, I'm an RN looking into possibly going to NP school. I was wondering if some of you wouldn't mind sharing some info with me.
What kind of NP are you? (acute care, peds...)
How many hours do you work a week?
How many hours do you take call a week?
Any info helps. Thanks

I work 40 hours a week at the clinic, but spend an additional 15-20 hours at home charting and doing paperwork.
