@candikinney_np: Don’t let someone convince you that you need to understand KPIs, profit margins, P&Ls, marketing, hiring, and every other part of business BEFORE you open your own NP practice. I dang sure didn’t & you don’t either. I knew how to take care of patients, and I knew I wanted more freedom and control over my career. The business stuff? I learned as I went. You learned how to be a nurse. Then you learned how to be an NP. You can learn how to be a business owner too! Don’t let everything you DON’T know be the reason you talk you out of starting. #nursepractitionersoftiktok #nursepractitioner #nursepractitionerstudent
