Hello,

Your post offers a compelling perspective on the importance of the DNP movement. I

agree that elevating clinical practice to the doctoral level not only enhances patient outcomes but

also empowers nurses to take on leadership roles in shaping health policy and evidence-based

practice. Your mention of bridging the research-practice gap is especially important, as DNP-

prepared nurses serve as a critical link between academic research and real-world clinical

application. Moran et al. (2025) and Waldrop et al. (2023), reinforce the growing need for

advanced clinical leaders in today’s complex healthcare environment. Your future goals to lead

interdisciplinary teams and influence policy with a DNP are inspiring and reflect the evolving

role of nurses in transforming care.
