Become a Nurse Practitioner at EMU!

Becky Peterson graduated this month with a degree that paves the way for her to examine patients, prescribe medication and make diagnoses, just like a physician. But she won’t be Dr. Peterson, and her graduate program took just two years.

Instead, she is becoming a nurse practitioner, a good-paying job that is also the fastest-growing field in healthcare.

“There is a place for medical-school doctors, and a place for nurse practitioners. And all of us are trying to do the same thing, which is meet the needs of people who need help,” said Peterson, who graduated from a University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill program and lives in Morrisville, N.C.

These days, heading to the doctor’s office often doesn’t involve a doctor. At least not directly. Instead, nurse practitioners have become major gap fillers, growing their ranks by 60% to 461,000 between 2019 and 2025, data from the American Association of Nurse Practitioners show.

Physician assistants who can fill similar roles are also in high demand, as are other non-MD health providers. They are all part of a broader trend to push basic care beyond the doctor’s office.

Wednesday Wellness: The Summer Cool-Down ☀️❄️

When you're running on low sleep after a long week of clinicals, classes, or shifts, these four quick temperature hacks will instantly refresh your skin and your mind.

🌟Store your eye masks in the fridge for an extra refreshing, cooling sensation that instantly soothes your skin and reduces puffiness after a long shift or study session
🌟 Don't throw away your morning green tea bags! Place them in a container in the fridge; the natural caffeine combined with the cold temperature works wonders for dark circles and tired eyes
🌟Whether you are dealing with summer sunburn or just need a calming skin treat, applying chilled aloe vera gel provides immediate, deep relief to tired or irritated skin
🌟Dampen a clean washcloth, wring it out, and add a few drops of lavender or eucalyptus essential oil before rolling it up and keeping it in the fridge. Pressing this chilled, aromatic towel onto the back of your neck or over your face after a hot summer day or a grueling clinical shift instantly melts away tension and lowers your core body temperature.

Which of these are you going to try this week? 👆

You can't pour from an empty cup. Here are 3 wellness micro-habits you can do during a busy 12-hour shift or a long study session:

🌟The 20-20-20 Rule: Look away from screens/charts every 20 minutes at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds to reduce eye strain.

🌟Box Breathing: A quick 4-second inhale, 4-second hold, 4-second exhale to reset the nervous system between tasks.

🌟Hydration check: Reminding them to down a glass of water before their next round.

What are your "go-to" check ins that you do to de-stress during a busy day?
