  4. Name and scope of NP/PA's

    SycamoreGuy replied to zoidberg's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Unless the PA spent all his time in PSYC or some other specialty and wanted to be independent, what good would he be in primary care? PAs really are a breed of their own. Equivalent to NPs in some...

  5. Name and scope of NP/PA's

    SycamoreGuy replied to zoidberg's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    SycamoreGuy replied to Corey Narry's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    SycamoreGuy replied to leekun2010's topic in Government, Military

    I'm pretty sure Pre-IADT are not required to drill. I never drilled before BOLC (ok I was only commissioned for 2 months before BOLC but still) and I have never seen anyone require enlisted Pre-IADT...
