Nurse Practitioner vs. PT

White Chapel,

It really depends on what you are looking for in a career. You need to consider issues like schooling, salary, family/work balance(if that is important to you), scope of practice, sense of autonomy, and a whole host of other issues. I think that shadowing both professions in a variety of settings would be a crucial step in making this career decision.

Which one is a better career?  NP or PT??

Can anyone give me some suggestions?

Agreed with TheOx777... What is it you are looking for in a healthcare career? Aspects of job responibilities, scope of practice, concentration, work place settings, pay, etc.
