I have heard of NPs doing solo minor surgeries, but that is a done on a hospital-by-hospital basis per their policy. Think the majority surgical NPs are assists to MDs. Maybe someone from either of these postings can help. https://allnurses.com/nurse...

The NP w/ vs w/o RN experience will always be a debate. It really comes down to your work ethic. Half my NP class is w/ RN experience. I started to work as a RN at the same time my NP program started. Academically, the 2 groups perform the same; sure...

I would hope that all NPs do a little health promotion! (time permitting of course). Given the current obesity crisis, I would expect your interest in fitness to benefit your patients in any age category. Specialization wise, it would certainly fair ...

30min cardio, 30min weights. I'm a NS that works out 2days/week. Not trying to bulk up, but to get more defined. I probably dont work out as often as I should, but i get lazy on days that I have clinical, which is 3days/week. I've been trying to avoi...

In my school in Baltimore, nurse externs and techs are paid roughly the same. However, the learning opportunity is different imo. Nurse externs have preceptors on their respective floors; 1:1. Obviously this experience can vary, depending on factors ...
