Can you get a doctorate in both physician assistant and nurse practitioner? what job is more respected?

Personally I would choose Nurse Practitioner over Physican Assistant. A Nurse Practitioner (ARNP) can not only choose to specialize, but can have an independent practice, or work as part of a group practice. Each has it's own advantages / disadvantages.

ARNPs are always in demand, and the future looks bright for this Nursing specialty, as do all Nursing jobs. Physician Assistant(PA) is a good field, but more limited than ARNPs. PAs are always in practice along with an MD, but do have appointments with, treat, and prescribe, in consultation with the MD.

Independent ARNPs have a physician that they consult, when the need arises, also anything out of their scope of practice they turn over to the MD that they're associated with, but are independent practitioners in their own right. Group practice ARNPs have appointments with, and see patients, as well as diagnose, treat, and prescribe the same as the MDs do, but have limitations, and will consult, or have an MD take over. ARNP does require a Masters Degree as an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse.

Good luck whichever you choose! Happy New Year!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
