Hello Everyone, First of all, it was nice getting to know everyone this week a little bit better! The most important things I have learned this week were really how to navigate through the online class and really find the tools that can help us when we need them. Also, I didn't realize how much I needed to brush up on my APA formatting so being able to have the sources available to me was really important in helping me with our first discussion post! I know this is important because we are going to become really familiar with APA throughout our journey! The biggest take away from the readings this week and from the articles I found when doing my discussion post, was how important continuing our education is. Having a master's degree in an advanced practice role is really going to be so beneficial, especially now knowing how much demand and little supply there is for APR's. I was really surprised in the reading that we don't have as much of a supply that the demand allows. This is so important because the more supply we have, the more people we can efficiently help! I feel humbled to be able to be able to advance my degree knowing I will be able to help so many people as we move forward! Week 2 Reflection Write 1-2 paragraphs reflecting on your transition to the NP role. Then save the reflection as a Word Document for submission later in the course. In week 8, you will submit all reflections as a single document. This reflection is worth 5 points and the final reflection document in week 8 is worth 15 points.

Hi Everyone, This week I really struggled with finding scholarly sources for some of the paper topics! But eventually I found some good articles and between the readings and articles I found, I learn a lot! Personally, for me, I most look forward to still having patient care. For a while I went back and forth with going to NP school and going to become a nurse manager.
