the person i interviewed wrote the following answers
What is the current setting of your work , what population do you cater to ?
My current setting of work is acute, subacute and LTC facilities providing care to patients/residents with acute and chronic neurological disorders.
Can you Discuss the NPs trajectory from RN to MSN?
Starting out, I believe its important to know what population you want to treat and what area of care you feel confident in and will be most successful in prior to choosing your specialty. Also do your research and if possible shadow an NP. For example, if you’re working in acute care for adults and want to pursue being a Pediatric NP the idea mentioned is applicable to this scenario.
Gaining experience as an RN is also important, however, I don’t believe that nurses need decades of experience prior to pursuing a higher degree. I was a nurse for 1.5 years before starting my MSN program and I feel during that time period I gained enough experience to make the decision to progress in my nursing career. Continuing to work as an RN at the bedside while in school was also a plus as I was able to “apply” what I learned in school to work. The FNP program strengthened my knowledge and upon completion of the program I had four years experience as an RN.
Can you describe your role in your setting of work ?
I complete consults/follow up visits to the older adult population for neurological diagnoses such as dementia, MS, Parkinson’s, CVA, and epilepsy with collaborative planning of care with PCPs, Physiatry, and Psychiatry. My credentials are FNP but my title role for this position is Advanced Practice Nurse.
Did you face Any challenges in school while transitioning or when starting your new role?
The transition with going back to school was unchallenging. Time management is an important factor which you develop as an RN, especially working on an intermediate care unit. My employer was accommodating with my schedule changes which was a huge help in being able to focus on my studies. I also chose an online program which, in my opinion, is a better option for those who have time restraints and excel at independent learning.

What I recall as being a somewhat challenge for me when starting out in a new role as an NP is what typically occurs in any realm of work with being in a new position at a higher level. You’re tested and being a mid level practitioner, there is a type of callow behavior that can come from some professionals in lower and higher positions. How one handles it is not something that is taught in a masters program, or any level of nursing program. Personally, remaining confident and letting your work speak for you ceases that behavior and your peers quickly learn to respect and trust you.

Did your program create any new opportunities for you?
Two opportunities that were created during my MSN program experience meeting the two preceptors I had for my pediatric and adult rotations. I was able to establish and continue relationships with my two preceptors who are both DNPs with their own practices. Both individuals still provide words of wisdom to me today and ways to navigate through my NP career to ensure I am getting the most out of it.

Was this their first role as APN
My first role was in neurology but specializing in epilepsy working with three epileptologists in multiple acute care settings and outpatient clinic for established patients.
What did she/he wish they had known while in MSN program ?
It can be tedious to secure a preceptor. Most online programs will help facilitate the process with a preceptor in regard to paperwork and approving your choice. However, they do not assist with securing a preceptor and many students started their search at the beginning of the program. I waited until my advisor suggested to begin my search and initially I had a very hard time. It wasn’t until I was having casual conversation with a fellow RN about needing a preceptor that she sent a text and I had one by the end of the day. I do believe the search is easier now due to social media and preceptors now being paid as an incentive for taking on the role.
What were you expecting in your new role?
Autonomy and flexibility. Also, collaborating with physicians as a contributor in developing treatment plans versus implementing orders. All of my expectations thus far have been met.

If you had to start all over, what would you have changed or done differently?
I would have focused more on building stronger relationships with professionals I have crossed paths with. Building a rapport with other NPs, MDs, and nursing staff have definitely made my job easier. However, this is something I had to learn and integrate into my role due to being more independent and to myself by nature.
please format them into a paper format.
her my interview person name is Ms. Amirah Brack
FROM the perspective of me
1.Provide self-reflection on what your expectations were- my expectations are that i will practice as an advance practice role in a clinical setting doing primary care for patients- i hadnt known that i could specialize in neurology or any other specialty department but it makes sense that if the disease is chronic it could be managed by a primary care fnp
3.What would you do different- If i had to do anything different i may have possibly explored the possibility of RN TO DNP instead of RN to FNP – MSN since obtaining my DNP is my ultimate goal, but i still dont mind completing my education in steps .
4.whatis your thinking now after the interview- my thinking is pretty much the same. my ideas and goals align with those of the MSN FNP program in addition to what other fnps and the person i interviewed reported to be experiencing in her current role
What is the significance to nursing for FNPs as educators, managers, clinicians and change agents? please assist me in answering this question
