In this episode, Dr. Miura welcomed her former NP student, Dr. Ann Yang, whom she precepted for Dr. Yang’s women’s health rotation in NP school (Dr. Yang graduated right after this episode was recorded). Dr. Yang is a graduate of the graduate entry program in nursing (GEPN) at the University of Hawaiʻi at Manoa and was accepted into the family nurse practitioner (FNP) fellowship program at the University of California, Davis. In this episode, Dr. Yang shared: What it’s like to attend a GEPN or accelerated DNP programWhen she started thinking about life after graduation and what helped her prepareWhy she chose to pursue a fellowship program instead of a regular NP jobHow the selection process for the fellowship program wentAdvice for NP students on preparing for life after graduation Unfortunately, Dr. Miura cannot accept students for preceptorship from other schools (the health center has a contract with certain schools, plus it’s physically impossible to precept hundreds of students at the same time), BUT! she has created the “NP Career Starter Kit,” in which she discusses the NP certification exam, job searching, and what to expect and how to prepare for your first day as an NP💪 Details about the “NP Career Starter Kit”👇 https://janpproject.mykajabi.com/NPcareerstarterkit —————————————————————— About ME: Hi I’m Miki Miura, DNP, APRN, FNP-C👋 I’m a family nurse practitioner (FNP) in Hawaii, USA. I was born and raised in Japan🇯🇵. I moved to the U.S. to become an NP when I was 25 years old after working as a registered nurse in Japan✈️ English is my second language, and becoming an NP in the U.S. as a foreign-born international student wasn’t easy. But, I was able to achieve my dream as well as many dreams that I couldn’t even imagine before, which include being awarded the State Award for Excellence for the State of Hawaii by the American Association of Nurse Practitioners in 2024 as well as Leadership Award from the Hawaiʻi Association of Professional Nurses🏆 My mission is to empower nurses from all over the world to achieve their dreams of building successful and fulfilling nurse practitioner careers✨ One of my mottoes is “WORK HARD, PLAY HARD” (which, by the way, is my favorite phrase I learned from American culture😄). While I see patients at two clinical practices, run an online coaching business, and do many other things, I surf three to four times a week🏄♀️ and go on a vacation every three to four months🏝️ This ideal work-life balance is possible for you….if you learn how to study/work smart!!!💪 Get a FREE PDF “NP Job Interview Prep Checklist”!👇 https://usa.janpproject.com/interview —————— LET’S CONNECT!
