American College of Cathopathic Physicians
"Those in the nursing profession who have earned the highest practice degree in the field, the Doctor of Nursing Practice, bring their prior experience and training in evaluating the whole, all-inclusive picture of the patient into each of their interactions. This theoretical framework can be called "cathopathic" (Greek: kath=through, throughout; holos= the whole, or catholic=all-inclusive, universal). They incorporate their ‘carative’ or supportive training in making sure the overall needs of the patient are managed to the optimal level, so they may be in the best possible position to manage or overcome their disease."
While all the MD/DO's are falling all over themselves to go work for large hospital systems, the RN's are taking online classes and getting nominal doctoral degrees in order to go open up their own shops!
