Absolutely loved this article. I feel strongly that NP education needs a complete overhaul, and have had similar thoughts to the needed restructuring that you’re voicing here. I feel very pessimistic that the governing bodies of NP education will make the changes necessary on a voluntary basis. Very worried that many bad outcomes will have to occur and that NPs will not be a trusted or respected profession before that occurs.
I wish it was true, but the literature shows a darth of evidence and there is no mechanism for switching specialties in place, there are some options, but no mechanism.
