I found your post the likable one at that. From the exposition to the main subject-topic discussion, you offered a concise treatment of the DNP degree, stressing its relevance to healthcare development, patients’ experience, and its capacity to build to prepare nurses for leadership and social change influencer roles. I do agree with you that DNP-prepared nurses would be able to identify grey areas in the care practice nuances with a specific focus on reducing the cost of accessing healthcare for the patient populations. Despite their multidisciplinary roles in topical healthcare settings, DNP nurses also play significant roles in academic environments by training, modeling, and inspiring future nurse leaders. They help provide educational curricula input directions for the healthcare training institutes, focusing on future care needs to meet up as the patient dynamics evolve Graves et al. (2021b). Besides, you also discuss, in-depth, the healthcare sector’s sky-bound expectations in the DNP degree, buttressing its industrial application as an element of a paradigm shift in the level at which nurse ought to have become competent research and evidence-based nursing scientists. The expectations correlate with the government’s intention to increase the camp of nurse scientists and advance nursing practice in the care setting targeting the increasing pressure for competent and evidence-based practicing nurses. According to the Affordable Care Act (ACA), the critical care competency gap calls for an upgrade in the cognitive competence of future nurses if the patient experience must be met and improved Ketefian and Redman (2015). Of particular interest is the mention of the bipolar disorder patient’s scenario in the post. Managing GAD/MDD patients can be challenging, especially when violent behavior is involved. I have not worked in any psychiatric environment, but I would like to study the association between violence and mental disorder incidences. Above all, your work is informative, engaging, and clinically delivered. Thank you.
