NPR article about NP residencies


Recommended Posts

Most of NP I know don't want to do a residency. The reason why NP is attractive to some RNs is because of the online programs and that is why they will not do a residency. Now, I know a lot of PA students would like to pursue a residency/fellowship, even pre-pa students are talking that.  I wish this article is about PA not NP, simply because there are more of residency trained PAs out there.

The article said ' In a regular clinical appointment, "I would have been given 20 minutes with him, and would have been without the support or knowledge of how to treat pain or Type 1 diabetes," she says."

 

How is that?  I thought they were already an NP?  NO knowledge, or support to treat DM1, or pain?

What?
