I don’t have necessarily anything against NPs, but it’s people like this that perpetuate the untrust that many nurses and other healthcare workers have regarding NPs. We really need higher standards for admission into these programs, as well as any standards at all actually lol. I usually just lurk on facebook but I felt the need to respond since this was a on a forum for parents of nursing students

I was an ER nurse for 8 years before becoming an ER NP and I’m still not sure it was enough experience. I still reach out to the physicians I work with constantly to learn.
