1. Why DNP and not MD?

   koreanjohn32 replied to koreanjohn32's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

   AndersRN, its not dissimilar to essentially, practicing medicine after an 18 month ADN. It's surprising how much autonomy you're given as a new nurse. The question is, whether the NP is sufficiently...

2. Why DNP and not MD?

   koreanjohn32 replied to koreanjohn32's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

   Invitale, I'm no troll. If you read my profile, you'll see my stated goal....FNP. Starting in healthcare at 45, I feel the passage of time just a bit too acutely. When FNP was a Master's program...

   Onon2RN, I'm speaking about this particular conversation. What may or may not happen elsewhere is besides the

   Bluebolt, that's exactly my issue....from what I've found, it doesn't do much to enhance the MNP. If it did, I wouldn't balk at the

   koreanjohn32 replied to koreanjohn32's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

   It's interesting....up til now, I've refrained from posting on allnurses precisely because I've seen the level of diatribe between "professionals." But seriously, I've appreciated the input from most...

8. Why DNP and not MD?

   koreanjohn32 replied to koreanjohn32's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

   To all you haters, rather than being demeaning and rude for an honest question, for which I still haven't come to a decision about which path to choose, you fit the stereotype of nurses who "eat...

    koreanjohn32 replied to koreanjohn32's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    Goldenfox, thank you for your comment. I understand the competitive nature of medical school...I come from a family of doctors. My grandfather was one of the first western educated MDs in Korea...

    Radiantforce, I'm very happy to be an RN. After a successful yet not fulfilling career in industrial design, I became an RN at 45. I LOVE what I do. But, I'm realistic about perception. Loving and...

13. Why DNP and not MD?

    koreanjohn32 replied to koreanjohn32's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    I understand. I actually want to be an NP as well, but just not spend more than what is currently required by law, to essentially get more education for something that doesn't further my scope of...

14. Why DNP and not MD?

    koreanjohn32 replied to koreanjohn32's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    Why is it illogical? I'm an RN trying to decide if I want to go for an advanced degree that allows me to become a provider. But if I have to spend just about as much time doing it, why stop short of...

15. Why DNP and not MD?

    koreanjohn32 posted a topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    I'm really curious about why the AACN wants all NPs to become DNPs. I understand the notion of "advancing nursing practice" but I think that there's going be a backlash towards this because (1)if you...
