Just what is analysis paralysis and how can it sabotage your practice startup?
Analysis paralysis refers to the state of overthinking, and excessive analysis to the point where moving forward is quite difficult. The choices and decisions can be endless, and in the end, we are fearful of being wrong in our choices.
This is not something that affects only Nurse Practitioners - it can affect all humans. We've been educated and trained to be "right" since we were young children. And certainly, our work and education have only added to that.
But what can you do when it stops you cold in your tracks ..read more

If you were presented with the idea of having a scribe do all your documentation, would you do it? If you are like most healthcare providers, you would jump up and down for the opportunity. Documentation is the least favorite activity for nearly all providers.
Enter the healthcare AI (Artificial Intelligence) scribe.
It’s a tool that can save you hours and allow you to focus on the patient in front of you.
It’s a tireless worker who understands (or should understand) privacy.
It’s non-intrusive.
And it’s cost-effective.
What’s not to love?
But before you jump on this and bring one into your ..read more

When thinking about business, the vast majority of nurses and nurse practitioners start with the idea of doing something that utilizes the professional skills they have developed. That makes sense, you spend years getting your education and developing your skills and talents, why not use them?
And use them you can...though perhaps in different ways.
On this episode of the NP Business Matters podcast, have a chat with Sharon Burch. Her history in nursing is long and varied, but it's always had a more holistic bent to it. Over the years of creating many businesses, she has honed those skills to ..read more
