CAN YOU GO TO NP SCHOOL WITHOUT NURSING EXPERIENCE? In today’s video we will talk about how to go about becoming a nurse practitioner without nursing experience. We will talk about direct entry np programs as well as piggy backing your np onto your nursing program. I’ll also answer the question “should I get experience before becoming an NP” and "would you recommend direct entry NP programs" as this is one of the most common questions I get!

I think this is completely different depending on the person. I know some NP’s who haven’t worked as a nurse for a day in their life that you wouldn’t even know unless they told you about it because they’re THAT good, and other NPs who’ve worked 5+ years as a nurse who are... questionable. But what the good ones with no prior nursing experience have in common is that they NEVER STOP LEARNING. They are ALWAYS studying and constantly looking thing up even after many years of NP experience.

@kaylaaax10 3 года назад

How is your experience been going straight to np without nursing experience?

@TheDanielleDenise 4 года назад

Thanks for sharing Liz! I just wish that so many traditional nurses didn't frown upon Direct Entry nursing programs. I'm currently in an ELMSN program, we get a BSN degree after our pre-licensure portion is complete. A lot of people take time off to work before we finish our NP portion. I just want to say that for those who doubt our ELMSN-NP programs, PAs go straight in so why can't we? Also, with having my bachelor's in a field outside nursing, yes I could've gone to PA school but I genuinely felt an appreciation and calling for nursing, specifically. I don't think that PA school would have been the right choice for me. I hope that helps someone! There are so many factors that go into making that decision, and its best left up to personal judgment.

@NurseLiz 4 года назад

Thats awesome that you get a BSN along the way! I've heard of a few people taking a break like you mentioned to get experience. And like you said its for sure a personal decision. I think the big thing about PA's going straight into it is how many more provider clinical hours they have. Best of luck with the rest of your program!

@alberta6662 4 года назад

Thanks for another informative video for those trying to figure things out. One of the benefits I believe for me personally in being a nurse prior to starting my FNP program was the ability to effectively communicate. Being a nurse helped me build this skill in having to have crucial conversation with the patients I was afforded to care for on my unit. Now that I am in clinical I am able to have conversations with my patients more comfortably because I have gained this skill from being a nurse first. Each person have their own path and we wish them the best of luck but I wholeheartedly agree with you regarding the benefits of becoming a nurse first before pursuing an advance practice degree

@NurseLiz 4 года назад

Oh my gosh I can't agree more about the communication. I feel like that has been So improved by my years as a nurse.

@alberta6662 4 года назад

I couldn’t imagine going through school without this skill. The transition from registered nurse to advanced practice nurse is going to be stressful enough without the added pressure of not having the communication piece. I’m not saying it can’t be done just not the route I would ever consider personally.

I love your videos and your honesty. My situation is a bit different because I have three degrees (zero in nursing, though that was my original path) and I don’t have much available to get undergraduates loans. However I am pretty firm on wanting to work in neonatology or OB/GYN which is more lead by NPs/MSNs. I am completing courses to apply to PA school but learned about going MSN/NP direct entry. I’ve been in the medical field for 20 years in different capacities and am a surgical tech/assist. It’s such a hard decision, but finances are pushing me toward PA. Wish I had just gone for nursing like I was in the beginning, but I digress. Thanks so much for your input and videos! ❤

OMG! I'm a junior in my BSN program and I have been binge watching your videos and struggling with this question. This was helpful because it does seem like everyone has a different opinion on the topic. I asked an NP with 5 years of prior ICU experience and she said as long as you work hard in school you don't need the experience before you apply. However, I liked what you said about working for a little bit to find a specialty you really like. I know 100% I want to be a provider, the more I'm in my clinicals the more I realize nursing just isn't my passion. And then I get the question, "why don't you just go to medical school?" and things get even more complicated!

You really do change your mind a million times based on your nursing experience after school! Experience helps you find your niche.

@jacobpeguero4115 3 года назад

I would have LOVED to stay as a staff nurse in a hospital longer than I did. I was there for 1.5 years and I learned so much. The nurses that have been there longer are often more astute at picking up patient changes and knowing what to do quicker than starting residents. But these joints didn't allow me to stay in bedside nursing longer, lol.

@MelissaReist 4 года назад

Love how well thought out this video is! I wouldn’t feel comfortable taking on the provider role with less than 2-3 years experience. Loved how you mentioned going to PA school instead.

MSN as a NP (?) for NON-nurses...this sounds like a disaster.

@judithcoloma613 Год назад

@@kpete27 I worked with a clinical nurse manager many years ago. She had a Non-Nursing BA and went into an MSN program, I think in Maryland. This MSN tried ICU. The nursing staff threatened that it was her or them. She was dangerous. She then became the nurse manager in my unit L&D, PP, and Newborn nursery. Yes, she had a BA. The hospital administration figured that a manager could go anywhere. The MSN never worked as a nurse a day in her life except for the few clinical hours needed for her MSN (her words). She was a disaster in both units. I have been a nurse for a very long time. Maybe too long. I am retired. I do believe in further education. But I also believe in experience. An old madame of a notorious bordello in Philly was asked if she ever worked as a call girl. She answered, "You can't be an artist and not get your fingers in the paint."

I am currently in a Masters Entry program and my program is just over 2000 clinical hours. Most things you stated are applicable to my program: 1.5 year BSN (they award us the Bachelors too!), NCLEX, 2-3 year Masters/DNP with the choice of 7 specialties. However, it is a requirement for my school that you work as an RN while completing the Masters/DNP portion. I go to a private nursing school in California, one of the top 10 in the nation!

@michellewoocoad9511 4 года назад

As someone who didn't have any experience going into NP school, and anxious about this insecurity, a faculty member told me this -- Yes, you don't have experience as a nurse, but here's what you do have and why we admitted you: You have 3 years of MA experience, 3 years of clinical coordinator and EKG experience, 2 years of public health experience where you not only taught diabetes and hypertension courses, you also were involved in health policy. And, even though you're a bit crazy...you're working PRN as an outpatient nurse. I realized at that moment that I did have clinical experience. That said, I will say that what an NP does, and if you go to a reputable school, I honestly believe that my RN experience actually would make the transition into an NP a bit more difficult. Many of my classmates mentioned that they're use to following orders given to them while as an NP student, they're learning how to diagnose and give orders/plans of care. I do find that does make a difference. The only thing I'd say a nurse with experience has over me is time management skills and if one decides to go into a specialty, then they are way more experienced and more qualified then me.

@NurseLiz 4 года назад

That experience will definitely be awesome! I would consider that clinical experience, just of a differnent sort like you said.

It’s not a race, for me it’s taken 30 years. Slow and steady. I have been thinking of ideas for my capstone research project for the DNP program I start next September. This might be a great and interesting topic to research. I have a DNP, NP mentor, I’m going to run it by him and see what he thinks. Lastly, I agree that nursing experience should be required for advanced practice. Nursing education is scattered and I feel there should be more continuity with nursing education.

@lauriefranck772 3 года назад

In Québec, its pretty different. NP need to have 3600 hours on nursing experience and around 1500 of those hours need to be in the specific practice you apply for. I was like you, I totally changed my mind on what i wanted to do. During my nurse technician program, i wanted all the critical and urgent care placement, i was only seeing myself at an hospital with really intense cases. But as i worked and did my bachelor, i realized i loved patient education and prevention of diseases, working with families etc. With all this I now want to be a NP in primary care :) im applying for next fall.

@lydiamerritt1174 Год назад

I have 13 years of nursing experience, float pool nursing primarily. I definitely believe the clinical nurse experience is imperative. The skills I have learned and the foundation that has been built helps me understand things better. Not to say others should do it my way. But I definitely would have struggled in my program more if I didn't have that experience, but that is just my personal experience.

@NurseLiz 4 года назад

PA school has quite a few more clinical hours! That makes a huge difference in my opinion

@Departedreflections 3 года назад

Great vid. Professionally I don't see the point. (going directly to NP) If the goal is to immediately work as mid level, then study to be a PA (a more rounded medical education) If you went into the trouble of getting your RN degree and license, then WORK as an RN I cannot begin to express the knowledge gap between school and practice (even just a couple of years) No, having prior XP does not mean you'll be a great or even good provider Yes, you can be a direct entry NP and be a great provider, but your at a disadvantage

@theshinythings123 3 года назад

I think some nurses look down on this path because in a way they never wanted to do the job as a nurse and wanted an "easier" path to something similar to a PA. For the most part you don't need as many hours of clinical experience and upper level prereqs like organic chemistry that PA school requires. I'm finishing my microbiology major (found out I don't like being a lab scientist) and going into nursing because I'm not sure I want to be a doctor and this path gives me flexibility in case I do want that later on and can go to NP school.

@TheGamerz3695 3 года назад

I completely agree.. there have been NPs that have told me that being a provider and a nurse is so different that theres a huge learning curve.. i completely agree about what you said about NP being that easier route as the upper level science courses are killer compared to the nursing classes.

@selenawilson7490 3 года назад

Loved the video! I am in a grad entry masters program and I love it! It definitely depends on what you want to do in nursing and what your goals are going into that profession. For me, I knew I wanted to go into the provider role and I decided on the np route. I have clinical experience (patient care associate, pharmacy tech, etc.) that I felt gave me more insight in the health field. Although it was not nursing experience, I find myself being prepared in collaborating with other health professionals, understanding what most medications are used for, how to earn patient trust, and many other valuable things. My program is solidifying the foundation that I want to build from in terms of becoming the best fnp that I can be for not only myself but my future patients! When I hear that some nurses spite others who choose this pathway it is very disheartening. Not everyone is trying to rush to the end! Some of us choose these programs because this might truly be our calling! For others they may have different needs that can be met with these programs, or maybe bedside nursing was not their calling. Everyone has their own reason or purpose for choosing this path.

@lbiparelli 3 года назад

I'm doing a dual degree (AGPCNP/WHNP) at Vanderbilt University and they're requiring about 1200 clinical hours. I applied to NP school soon after I graduated nursing school, about 4 months after. I started school when I had just over a year of experience and when I start clinicals this spring, I'll have 2.5 years of experience. Not quite piggy-backing but it's been manageable at this point!

@naomiparks9209 3 года назад

I’m planning on taking the same route! What unit did you start off in as a new grad and do you feel like the specialty you chose impacted your experience in np school?

@lbiparelli 3 года назад

@@naomiparks9209 I worked on cardiac/stepdown as a new grad. I also did charge for a year which was a great experience as well. I'm not working anymore because I'm in clinical full time now. I don't think my inpatient specialty impacted NP school, except for feeling more comfortable with cardiac content lol. But either way, the work exposure was invaluable. I will say, the NP role is so different from the RN role, you may as well just jump right in and start that NP degree because more years as an RN doesn't mean you have less to learn when you get to NP school. I see experienced nurses struggle with difficult content just as much as nurses with 2-ish years of bedside.

@Bravegate 3 года назад

It seems like a lot of perspectives on this topic assume that direct-entry NPs do not have experience. I think that a distinction has to be made between direct-entry route for someone with no clinical experience vs. someone with clinical experience (besides RN experience). For someone who has no patient care experience and wants to enter into a direct entry MSN, yes, I'd agree that getting RN experience first is the best choice because, as you mentioned, caring for patients at the bedside exposes us to irreplaceable knowledge about how to recognize complications, educate/advocate for patients and make clinical decisions. But, I don't think that is comparable to everyone considering the direct-entry route. I earned a bachelor's of science degree in another discipline and have 10,000 hours of patient care experience across 4 specialties. I think that taking another year to work as an RN isn't necessary. Obviously PA would be an option for me, but going that route would mean that I wouldn't be able to continue working while in school or take advantage of tuition assistance. Plus, time away from connections I've already made at my current employer, where I'd be better positioned to transition into my role after graduation. I think that before making a concrete decision about whether RN experience is necessary, individuals should be evaluated holistically, and with consideration to all of the experiences they bring to the table that would qualify them to be prepared, competent providers. Thanks for all you do Liz, I love your videos.

I’ve been a nurse for 11yrs and just recently finished my FNP. I’m so glad I did not do this when I was a younger nurse. I wouldn’t have been ready, not as a person and not as a nurse. I worry that by diminishing the time required to apply for a graduate program, we diminish the quality of our care, perceived and actual. In some ways, the perceived quality is more important because how we are perceived by physicians can dictate how we can practice.

I am a firefighter paramedic with aspirations to become an NP. I am in the beginning stages of doing a paramedic to RN bridge program and then plan to get a BSN then ultimately NP. At this point I don’t plan on gaining much nursing experience prior because I will be going to school part time while continuing my full time firefighter paramedic career. By the time I would be ready for NP school I will have almost 15 years of paramedic experience. I know there are differences in nursing and prehospital EMS but I hope the EMS experience is helpful as I am considering working in Urgent Care or the ED as an NP.

@nataliedubious5241 4 года назад

700-1000 placement/clinical hours seems like a teeny amount if there's no previous healthcare experience. My BSN (woohoo, got the offer a couple of weeks ago!), has 880 placement hours! Pretty much all the unis I've looked at here in Aus require 5 years prior FULL-TIME experience before they'll accept you for a NP program.

I obtained a 4 yr BSN degree then DNP, FNP 15 yrs later (I waited too long, but no one can ever take away any of the experience I gained). I, too, recommend 2-3 yrs of experience, as it is an "advanced" nursing practice degree.

I know it's really early to get good data on this, but I am also curious what we will find out about the influence of floor nursing experience of an NP on care quality, patient outcomes, and vitality of the NP career. More and more people are becoming interested in ABSN, direct-entry masters programs, and going straight into NP school after nursing school. I'm finishing up a 15-month ABSN program, and I feel I'm not getting enough clinical experience to feel confident enough, even though we're doing clinical hours at least 12 hours every week. It makes me wary about these fast-paced programs.

@NurseLiz 4 года назад

I"ll be totally honest. Nursing school clinicals are the worst. They arent set up well for learning because there is little continuity, and a large portion of the learning is placed on nurses who are stressed and can't educate because they are flustered already. I felt the exact same way when i graduated from nursing school. I learned the most at my first job.

@kpete27 Год назад

@jenniferwilson9579 3 года назад

I was an experienced labor and delivery nurse at a large hospital who worked with a CNM group. There was one CNM who seemed to not have the level of knowledge and judgment that the other CNMs possessed, she seemed uncomfortable in her role, and it made me very uneasy as I was not confident in her and that is not a feeling any staff nurse wants to have when working with a provider. I found out later that she had no labor and delivery experience, or any nursing experience, as she went to nursing school then directly into midwifery school. I am a big proponent of getting nursing experience before going on to become a provider of care. I hope this young woman eventually caught up with her peers but honestly, the lack of nursing experience in this particular case was glaring.

@raimusprime7908 4 года назад

i think that clinical hours are key. RN clinical hours are invaluable. nursing (and Medicine) are taught on the floor/unit. a lot of the schooling is a weedout process imho. i see the actual procedures done (MD/PA/NP/RN) and that's where you really learn stuff. "on hands"/clinical and patient assessment/Dx is where the "magic" is! so going to NP school (what i also plan on doing after my BSN) WITHOUT nursing experience seems kind of like going for your Master's in Engineering without any engineering courses/experience. i guess you can if you get in but it's not going to be pretty. >.

@snapsslm 4 года назад

I’ve been a nurse for 13 years (almost all in ICU) and have just started an MSN program for forensic nursing. I have never wanted to be a nurse practitioner but always wanted to continue my education. Nothing quite struck me until forensic nursing came up. From the perspective of the longtime bedside nurse, it can be incredibly frustrating to watch new grads come to the unit, get their 1-2 years of experience, then leave for NP school one after another. Their attitude is frequently that they have already learned everything there is to know about the ICU and are now inherently better than those nurses who choose to stay at the bedside for a longer amount of time. I have always thought that nursing experience is crucial to advanced practice, but feel that even more so since starting my program. We take all the same patho/pharm/assessment classes as the NP students and I feel extremely prepared based on my bedside nursing experience. Sorry if this got a little ranty.

@nosir5585 3 года назад

I am thinking this way it is longer but incrementally difficult which will be easier to adapt and leaves a safety net if it doesn't workout. I'm thinking to bridge into an RN diploma program that way I can work and school and after that pass test and find work really anywhere its just temporary but finish up classes for a AS in biology for transfer and if you wonder why not an ADN its really because I can't see a reason it would do me any good outside nursing and who knows what will happen so as an RN start working on a bachelors in biology or genetics if offered and finish that. Now if I don't make it in any of my options I have a degree that from what I know will help me more and honestly gave a much better understanding of the body than a BSN. I can try for a PA program which from what I gather teaches from the medical model and if I'm going to be making decisions about prescriptions is a safer way to make sure I make the right choice or find a NP or DNP program that used the medical model I heard UC Davis does and I'm sure others do. I don't know if the direct entry programs will accept a applicant without a BSN even if licensed but worse case scenario I have to go get BSN I already have a BS and am an RN so the time won't be so short and why I'm not just thinking PA is autonomy that a NP has in California. I have these steps this way so I can work as far into it as I can, I know I won't be able to if I got in either program but its easier to explain as an adult who changed careers in his 30's why I'm unemployed. It also lets me fall back on a better job than I have now if my big dreams don't work

Thank you for your wonderful video! I wanna ask you a few questions if you don't mind me asking. 1. Do I need to get a BSN degree to work as a nurse (either RN or NP) though I have an MSN degree? I mean, is it recommended? I'm wondering if it is common and okay to work as a nurse without a BSN degree when I have an MSN. 2. If you recommend finishing a BSN and working as an RN for more experience before I choose my future career, what about starting a direct entry MSN program and taking an absence of leave for 1-2 years to work as a full-time RN before I choose my specialty? 3. Is there any chance that I can apply for the direct entry MSN program when I already graduated but haven't finished the prerequisite courses? I wonder if I can finish the prerequisite courses in a community college and then apply for the program.

I am very interested in direct entry programs. Currently completing my MPH & I have experience managing a private caregiving agency where I regularly see clients/fill in for caregivers/directly oversee client affairs. My main concern is being cancelled by other nurses for being less experienced. I definitely recognize my lack of clinical experience but I have always been committed to improving health throughout my career. I have always seen the value of primary care and do not see myself working in another setting. Likewise, I completed all direct entry pre-reqs (not PA) and am not interested in PA school. Will my job prospects be limited by the anti-direct entry crowd? Will I be able to prove myself by working hard or will it never be enough to gain the majorities respect? (Thank you for being so open minded btw!). I just don’t think I can take bs from MDs and NPs. I also need to get out of school ASAP and won’t be able to financially justify taking more time for experience. This is getting ridiculous lol :)

Totally depends on the humans you end up working with! Most will give you the respect you deserve if you show up and have prepared yourself well.
