Hi, here's my scenario- tell me if you think FNP is the way to go:
I am currently working as an RN on a general med-surg-oncology floor and I'll have about 3 years of experience when I graduate with the MSN next December. I would like to work in primary care for adults, a some type of specialty or women's health. While I fully expect to work full time for a year or two, I have three kids at home and definitely want to move into something part time while they are growing.
I really can't see myself doing anything with peds though I have no particular aversion to it- I would just rather work with adults..
So, should I really bother with all the peds stuff required for the FNP? Isn't is better to focus on the ANP and have better job opps in hospitals? Or will I still find myself limited if I can't work with children?
Thanks for the input..I'm currently in the FNP track and if this is my last chance to switch- clinicals start in Jan.
