MedicalRN Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Just thought you guys should know there is a NP vs PA post going on at a new NP forum I saw posted on reddit. Thought maybe someone would want to weigh in? I already made an account and posted. http://npforum.forumatic.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=35&p=103#p103 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MedicalRN Posted June 11, 2014 Author Share Posted June 11, 2014 Thanks to those who responded. surprised it remained civil. 10 years ago this discussion would have been ugly. Yes. I agree, I am very satisified with the posts from both sides. Respectful. I used to post on allnurses and the NP versus PA threads always devolved into mud slinging very quickly. Some of the posts are still a bit misrepresntative of PA education in my opinion, though. I may have to respond again lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delco714 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 No one dropped the obvious, that our superiority allows us to bounce around different specialties/fields. ;-) ..how about that np's practice advance nursing, whereas they really are practicing medicine but broke away from ama. CRNA is truly the pinnacle of the nurse world, in my opinion. They heavily earn their respect in my eyes.

delco714 Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Using the rn degree as a backbone is silly. Undergrad a/p is a simple course,, and often is a choice for non science majors when forced to take a science to graduate. Funny anecdote...I remember my ex and a friend discussing something about the liver, and they were ADAMANT that it was on the left side. It was very hard to convince otherwise..in hindsight, should of hooked a liver to prove the point. Steve PA-C, Maine, urologic surgery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
