I'm thinking about going back to school to become an NP. I believe that the rigor and breadth of one's practicum is critical to the development of a practitioner. During my review of nursing programs, I notice that many schools leave it up to the student to arrange for their own clinicals. I'm wondering if, in fact, all NP programs require that students arrange for their own clinicals - and I was simply unaware. Is that true? If it is, can anyone make recommendations on how to arrange for rigorous clinical rotations? Thanks, in advance.
