Awesome! Do you like it so far? That's the program I might transfer into!

I agree completely! What program are you in? If you don't mind sharing! And yes the extra hands on clinical time is a big seller for me too. And the area where I will be looking to get a position does prefer DNP it seems.

I won't make more money with a DNP but my end goal is to teach...however my struggle is if I should get it all done now or do it later on.

Hi fellow nurses! I am looking for some advice...I am an experienced level III and level IV NICU nurse currently enrolled in a masters prepared NNP program and set to start clinicals in the fall semester and graduate the following summer. However, my fiance just got an excellent job across the country...as of now he has moved and I am staying with family. I had planned to finish out my MSN program then move out there after graduation as an NNP. With plans of then completing my DNP online. However, I am exploring the alternative option of transferring my credits to a DNP program which would allow me to move sooner but would delay my transition into the NNP role. A very difficult decision, any NNP input or fellow nurse advice would be much appreciated! Thank you!

Thank you! Definately a lot to think about. I appreciate the advice

I am a May 2013 BSN graduate and have been working in a level III NICU for the past year and absolutely love it. I am interested in exploring military nursing opportunities however I want to stay within NICU. Any NICU nurses have any advice/experiences to share?
