The FreshNP Podcast
The learning curve to becoming a nurse practitioner is steep. This podcast is hosted by Sean Dent, MSN ACNP-BC CCRNand Kati Kleber, BSN RN CCRN and features expert content from FreshNP.com. FreshNP is a hub of resources for prospective, current and new nurse practitioners to support and facilitate their transition from student to new clinician.
Our goal is to bridge the knowledge gap about all things related to becoming a new NP. From which program to choose, to working with physicians, to time management, we cover all things the new NP wants and needs to know to be successful.
While patient scenarios may be discussed, any identifying details have been changed to protect their privacy. For full disclaimers, click here.

Sean and Kati discuss the challenging transition from ICU nurse to ICU nurse practitioner, and how to work with bedside nurses as a newly licensed NP. Sean shares some personal stories about why that transition was an unexpected challenge and what it feels like to go from being the person who asks the questions to the person who has to know the answers.
