Becoming a Nurse Practitioner has become extremely popular amongst nurses. In this video I go over 5 things I wish I had known before starting NP school.
My top 5 things you should consider before starting NP school are:
1. Know the job market for the degree you will be studying. You don't want to graduate and find yourself unable to find a decent job.
2. Set a realistic expectation on what you will get paid as a new grad nurse practitioner. Sorry but its probably not $150,000, instead closer to as low as $80,000.
3. Politics. Endless politics in this field. NP vs MD/DO, NP vs insurance, nurse practitioner full practice authority, etc.
4. Stress. The stress is REAL and don't underestimate it.
5. Doing a 1 year nurse practitioner fellowship would have been a good idea.
