Hi, I'm thinking about going to NP school in AZ but going back and fourth trying to decide if I should do FNP or AG-ACNP, the latter is my first preference but I have heard so many nurses say that FNP gives me more options. I want to work with adults only. I'm also trying to find an NP school in AZ as well. I don't want to end up with instructors who are not supportive. Any advice? Thank you! 0 Likes
DizzyJ DHSc PA-C Specializes in DHSc, PA-C. Jun 15, 2020 Do FNP if you want to have the ability to treat all ages in the outpatient setting.Do AG-ACNP if you want to treat adults in the inpatient setting. 1 Likes
CinLeo42 Jun 20, 2020 Thank you! It's AG-ACNP for me! Right now, I'm working in the step down unit and I've only been on this unit for about 3 months. ACNP requires that I work in the ICU, right? Can I apply to ICU after one year in step down? 0 Likes
