I'm surprised by the number of negative replies. There is an increase in the # of jobs for Nurse Practitioners as changes in healthcare dictate the use of mid level providers to save $$$. If you are going to get your MSN, I would highly recommend you do NP and stay somewhat generic; Family NP, Chronic Care NP, Adult NP, Psych. NP, etc. Good luck! Many Government agencies are utilizing more and more NPs and offering great incentives to attract them.
