Nurse Practitioner
Provide care for acute and chronically ill patients. Conduct complete physicals, provide treatment and counsel patients.
I get in at 8:30 am to start seeing patients for a full schedule (18-20 patients). I then transition into medicine and in-person visits. You can be taking care of people that are diabetic to get prescriptions or there for check-ups or physical exams. Some people come in for disability or any health issues. I help coordinate patients through the process and deal with a lot of paperwork.
