NYC Nurse Practitioners

Published

I am a nursing student about to begin an accelerated nursing program in NYC. I am wondering if any Nurse Practitioners in New York City could tell me what hospitals in the city use NPs. Are there certain hospitals that use NPs more than PAs or vice versa? Do you think it is hard to find a job as an NP in the city? Could you also tell me what your jobs is like and what your specific duties are in relation to the physician you are working with?

I know I havent even begun undergrad but I am just interested for the future. Thanks!!

It's only been a couple days, but my immediate impression is that the academic side is very well organized, but the administrative/beureaucratic stuff, not so much. There were some new grads (of the BSN part) at a thing we had yesterday, they seemed perfectly happy w/the program.
