Hello, I have a few questions for any Neurologists or Neurology residents on SDN. I am currently a BSN student and would like to become a Nurse Practitioner in a few years. I know after doing a few searches on SDN that NP's are not highly favored here. I did not realize until recently that there was such a knowledge gap between NP's and MD's (I knew a gap existed but not a grand canyon sized gap lol) However, I am still going forward with my education to become an NP and I know now that it will require hours of independent study outside of NP school, and I should probably start now lol. I do plan on becoming an activist for changing NP curriculum in the future.
With that said, what do you expect an NP working in Neurology to know? What type of patients do you allow the NP's you work with to see? Lastly, what are some things you recommend I do or learn to help become an NP in Neurology (and please don't say go to Med school lol). I know I have already started getting resources that I see on SDN like Robbins, Pathoma, Sketchy, etc. any others?
Thanks!
