    Fellow NPs: What's your strategy for retirement?

    guest416560 replied to FNP_Lifer's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I assume that annual physicals and MMSE would be a good starting point. One's primary care provider along with one's trusted peers can make recommendations as to your ability to practice safely. I...
