Curious about what it’s really like to work in critical care as a Physician Assistant (PA) or Nurse Practitioner (NP)? In this video, I sit down with Katie Beaudoin, a seasoned critical care PA with nearly 20 years of experience, to pull back the curtain on ICU life.
✅ The real-life pros and cons
✅ ICU schedules, salaries, and the most common (and wildest) procedures PAs and NPs perform
✅ How autonomy works for PAs and NPs in the ICU, especially at night
✅ The differences between PA vs. NP training for critical care
✅ How to break into ICU medicine as a PA or NP—even if you’re coming from another specialty
Whether you’re a PA, NP, student, or just someone who wants a raw, behind-the-scenes look at the ICU, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
