Reflection on the Doctor of Nursing Practice

 Reflection on the Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP)

In approximately 500 words, reflect on the Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree. Using at least 5 evidenced-based articles found through an academic library search that are no older than 5 years, analyze (1) the history and purpose of the DNP, (2) the current state of the DNP, (3) the future state of the DNP, (4) how DNP-prepared APNs will assist with transformative healthcare and help solve complex health problems, and (5) the advantages of having the DNP. Reflect on your own thoughts on why (or why not) the degree would be appropriate for your career path.
