“Three more states — Connecticut, Nebraska and New York — are in the process of allowing nurse practitioners to work without oversight from a doctor, in an effort to alleviate physician shortages.”
“Drug development for Alzheimer’s disease lags behind that for heart disease, cancer, diabetes and HIV/AIDS. Through drug discovery, those four killers have become manageable chronic conditions in many cases. Alzheimer’s still relentlessly destroys cognition and kills within a decade or so of the first symptoms.”

Alzheimers is the scariest disease of all
Yes, it is quite horrible to watch the decay of the brain.
I had it happen to a family member. It is definitely not fun
What about nurses who are allowed to write prescriptions?
Even worse, there are already too many prescriptions being written without nurses getting involved
Unfortunately more and more will be assigned to them, as insurance companies find ways to negate lawsuits
Ahh, the real goal, there it is.
