What is the process to become a nurse practitioner? |
ive read a lot and some things say that you have to get your BSN and work as a RN fcor one or two years before you can continue education to become a nurse practitioner...but can i just go to school for my masters and become an NP at the end...and just skip RN? RN means Registered Nurse, and this title is not one that you obtain from a college or degree but rather by passing the NCLEX-RN exam. You have to pass the exam and be a RN before you can practice as any kind of nurse, including a NP. A NP requires a Master's level degree in Nursing. I'm not sure what you mean by skip the RN and go for your Master's--do you mean that you want to skip getting an undergraduate degree completely? You have to have an undergraduate degree to get a Master's. If you mean do you have to work as a RN, I don't think all schools require that you do, but in all honesty, 90% of nursing is learned through work, not in school, and you would be cheating yourself and your patients if you missed this on-the-job training. I have been a nurse for 16 years, and I learn something new every day. Every day. Don't try to take a short cut--you are playing with people's lives. |
