Question 2

Which NP program should I choose?

Accepted Answer

If you want to work inpatient for example in acute care or hospitalist, you should do the acute care track. If you want to work with stable adult patients in an outpatient setting, you can do adult gerontology primary care. Other options include family where you work with adults, children, and adolescents and psychiatry where you manage patients with mental health diagnoses.

Question 3

Can you work in the accelerated BSN program?

Accepted Answer

No you should not because the program is full-time study and is vigorous. Plan to work very part-time or per diem while in that program, and save money prior to the start of the program so you can focus on passing your classes with ease.
