FAQ

Hospital NP Questions

What does a hospital based NP do?

Hospital NPs manage acute admissions, perform evaluations and consults in the ER and on the floors, round on and stabilize inpatients, and coordinate discharge planning with multidisciplinary teams.

What do hospital NPs earn?

Across 36 listings from 28 employers that state an annual salary, the median posted pay is $136K. The middle half of those listings fall between $96K and $194K.

What schedule do hospital NPs work?

Schedules are set by the unit and the employer. Read the schedule each listing states, including shift length, night and weekend rotation, and any on-call requirement, before you apply.

What qualifications are required?

Hospital listings state their own requirements. Expect an active APRN license, national NP certification, DEA registration and current life support certification, and read each posting for the acute care experience it asks for. Some hospitals run residency and fellowship programs for newly certified NPs.

Do hospital systems offer loan forgiveness?

Eligibility depends on the employer and on the federal program rules in force when you apply. Ask each employer whether the site qualifies, and confirm the current requirements with the federal student aid office before you rely on them.
