If I had to choose one topic readers ask me about most, it would probably be the DNP. I get a lot of e-mails about the proposed 2015 deadline for a DNP transition. Many of you are planners, I can certainly relate. So, naturally, there is anticipation and anxiety around if the DNP mandate will happen and when.
When it comes to thinking about the DNP, we need to take a step further back in planning our NP education paths. Even if the DNP isn’t mandatory, you should always look at all of your options when it comes to making a major life change like deciding to become a nurse practitioner or go back to school. If you haven’t noticed, the theme of the week here at ThriveAP has been all things DNP. For convenience, I’ve consolidated this information into one single post. Presenting the DNP Link Pack.
