Video: Family Nurse Practitioner Grads Share What it Takes to Succeed

apply header

 

In April, on the last day of class and after the final exam was taken, we interviewed a cohort of Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) students on the Sacramento Campus of Samuel Merritt University (SMU).

We asked them to reflect on their experiences, share their insights from the journey, and give prospective students the inspiration to take the step into one of healthcare’s fastest growing professions.

And as you’ll see, it takes a lot to be an FNP at SMU. But it’s worth it.

Special thanks to FNP Clinical Coordinator Kelli Deskins and students Karishma Bhardwaj, Jeanette Cope, Claire Nazareno, Rigo Picazo, and Joshua Wormley.
