    My current organization recognizes DNP and offer $1,000 one time bonus for any RN pursue higher education such as MSN, DNP, PhD. Employers are recognizing the unique contribution and supporting nurses with tuition-reimbursement programs. DNP programs degree is about gaining new perspective, new knowledge, new competencies, and learning to partner better with our patients and families. It helps nurses envision things differently, scope projects differently, and apply what they learn and continue to move our care to the next level. a DNP also help nurse acquire the tools to better understand our health care system, its policies and finances, and become a better advocate for serving the vulnerable population.

    The negative comments that I have heard about the DNP is the additional time one must spend in school. I did a lot of research before applying to DNP programs and have seen that many nursing schools are offering the degree. I have also noticed the accreditation process being done by the CCNE. This gives me the impression that the DNP will come to be. To those who bring up these issues I simply say that this is the career path that I have chosen for myself. If anyone had insulted me or keep giving negative comments about my degree choice, I would tell them that it doesn’t matter what they thought about it because it is my decision and will be completing it no matter what. However, the physicians I come in contact with and work with are very supportive and think the DNP is great.

    I agree with the author that COVID 19 has impacted significantly to our society. From school closures to devastated industries and millions of jobs lost, the social and economic costs of the pandemic are many and varied. Covid-19 is threatening to widen inequalities everywhere, undermine progress on global poverty and clean energy, and more. Among the worst hit are workers in the informal economy, young people and women. Any economic recovery will likely be uneven, leading to greater inequality in the coming years. For a number of families, it could mean making big changes in everyday routines due to financial hardships. For other families, it could mean raised anxiety in children, tension in parenting relationships or general fear. Many parents, while working from home, have to take care of their children with restricted caregiver resources as well as support their children’s education through home schooling or remote learning provided by their schools.
