@@brianmartin141 hey so i know you commented 4 months ago, but if your still unsure about what career you want make sure your really do your research. Right now im a junior in high school but i'm in a pre-nursing program and all i can say is that i did not expect this when i signed up for it. I definitely think that nursing is very stressful and the stress varies in the type of nursing you do. At the end of the school year when i finish this program (if i decide to stay) i'm gonna get my stna but i'm definitely starting to look into a different path. If your interested in a career within healthcare, my best advice is to really do your research because i've been doing some and there are plenty different types of careers in healthcare than just nursing and becoming a doctor. lmk if you have any questions, i'll be glad to answer.

It depends on the state, clinic, and physician you’ll be assigned to so experiences vary. There are PAs who are practically treated as counterparts with their Physician (such as military PAs) because the organization calls for that but there are others where the physician doesnt trust the PA or based on hospital regulations and limits what they can do so it varies.

They can have much responsibility and do a lot of work but don’t earn as much as the MD. MD’s go through so much more schooling. What PA’s can do varies as the video says. It offers great stable pay. (Just not as much as the MD.) Sometimes you may get treated like a high level medical resident/intern. Or you may be treated like an MD counterpart. Anyway, overall PA provides an excellent career choice. Know your job and don’t worry about medical elitism. Nursing allows you to get advanced degrees (M.S. ,PhD, DNP) and offers many career opportunities. You can go into Nursing informatics or Nurse Educator. Pick what works for you! All of these healthcare careers are great!

Registered nurses needs a minimum of associate degree. I started my RN with associates degree. I am now a psychiatric nurse practitioner. Majority of my colleagues make over $200k yearly because here in California there is a shortage of psychiatric provider. Also as an NP, you are allowed to open your own practice. I currently have my own telepsychiatry clinic. Even before the pandemic , telepsychiatry was becoming the norm. Now with covid , the need for telepsych providers exploded. Almost all insurances now pay for virtual visit. You can work anywhere you want as long as you have computer and internet. :)

@drjustinleedpt
@drjustinleedpt 4 жыл бұрын
I would 100% recommend doing this to save money! What I would do is go to a community college and take as many classes as you can to transfer into a university and also take courses that will fulfill your prerequisite. That way you get the price of those courses for a community college rather than prices for a university. If I had done it differently, I would have taken this route

Incorrect information regarding registered nurses. There are ADN and even some diploma programs around. Both of those are about 2 to 2.5 yrs of school and they sit for the same state boards that 4 year degrees do. A BSN makes MAYBE 1 dollar an hour more than a diploma or ADN RN in a basic RN role
