California passed a law, AB-890, effective January 1, 2023, giving NPs in their state more autonomy than they previously enjoyed. It’s being implemented in a stepwise fashion. And like many laws, it’s rather confusing for everyone involved. On January 12, 2022, NPBO was lucky enough to host a webinar with Melanie Balestra who is a nurse practitioner and an attorney in California, where she spent nearly 2 hours answering questions.

It may have been a comment you heard long before graduating from nursing school — the one about nurses “eating their young.” It’s a statement that is unfortunately true for some nurses. For a profession seen as the most honest and ethical , it would seem unlikely that nurse bullying could be an issue that many nurses face.
