Just note this is published by a concerned NURSE!
Patients beware!

Your “BOARD CERTIFIED” NP may have only ever done a comprehensive physical exam TWICE in her life before coming in the exam room to see YOU

Shocking levels of undertraining & lack of rigorous exam requirements REVEALED!

WHY IS THIS NOT FRONT PAGE NEWS?

RT!!!
“During clinical experiences, learning outcomes are presumed to be met,

yet exploration of what actually happens has not been conducted.”

This is why FPA has been allowed in so many states. NO ONE HAS BEEN LOOKING AT RESULTS!

@TempletonPeckP1 @NewToTweets_Dr @RBlockMD @GallaherCaren @EmoryLise @Rebekah_Bernard @mamapsychmd @LeahHoustonMD Hate is not the point here. Patient choice is the point. As a patient I want my family and I to be able to choose a physician. Patients should also be educated to the significant training differences between NP/PA & physicians before making that choice.
@TempletonPeckP1 @NewToTweets_Dr @RBlockMD @GallaherCaren @EmoryLise @Rebekah_Bernard @mamapsychmd @LeahHoustonMD I do not want to have to beg in the ER to see an actual physician because too few docs b/c NP/PA have been preferentially hired because they cost medical conglomerates less. I do not want my family told by the clinic receptionist that the NP is “just the same” as the doc.
@TempletonPeckP1 @NewToTweets_Dr @RBlockMD @GallaherCaren @EmoryLise @Rebekah_Bernard @mamapsychmd @LeahHoustonMD I do not want my beloved family member admitted to the hospital being taken care of overnight by a NP/PA instead of a physician attending. I want choice.

Are independent NP able to provide equal care to physicians? Let’s take a closer look at the studies they say support this idea. In a word... “problematic.”
onlinenursing.baylor.edu/news/nurse-pra…
Study 1: Nurse led phone triage. RN has capability to do this.

Study 2: 1978. 1 NP. Poor followup. No power calculation.
Study 3: Patients entered 6 months of NP care *after* diagnosis, treatment and plan by physician. Physician consultation available in clinic.
Study 4: The NP did not have prescriptive authority so the physician was always available to confirm needs for rx.
