and answer the following questions:

1. What differentiates
the practice of a master’s-prepared nurse compared to that of a
baccalaureate-prepared nurse?

2. What is the value
of a master’s degree in nursing?

consider to be the most essential professional competency for a
master’s-prepared nurse practicing in the 21st century?
