From what I understand, while physicians are able to practice independently with just one year of residency, it’s impractical to do so. In my opinion, someone that has gone through medical school, passed their boards, and has taken care of patients in a supervised setting is more capable of independent practice than a nurse that has taken a few online classes and done some shadowing.
