Who said they are "supposed to have a decade of experience" before getting an NP?

Thats ideal. You think its a good idea pulling nurses into NP with 1-3 years experience, you're wrong. Those people are the exception not the norm.

This is a common point talked about in r/nursing.

Average new grad NP is less experienced and doesn't know as much as a floor nurse with 5 years experience under their belt.

Medicine and patient care is all experience. It's why even doctors get outperformed by nurses at bedside procedures. Because nurses been doing them.
