1. VANEEP - ULTIMATE GUIDE

   Non Sequitir replied to Non Sequitir's topic in School Programs

   Great info but readers please be aware that VANEEP is not the same as EISP.

2. VANEEP - ULTIMATE GUIDE

   Non Sequitir replied to Non Sequitir's topic in School Programs

   VANEEP can be used for any program that falls within its outline. Since CRNA would be a first time licensure for you, I believe it could be used. There are maximum funding and time limits however. For my BSN at my state’s flagship university I am ...

3. VANEEP - ULTIMATE GUIDE

   Non Sequitir replied to Non Sequitir's topic in School Programs

   Forgot to mention: The VANEEP scholarship is maxed out for my degree costs and leaves about 5% of the degree not funded. This means that my out of pocket expenses for the entire program (books included) will be $1,000-$1,500. Given the fact that I ...

4. VANEEP - ULTIMATE GUIDE

   Non Sequitir posted a topic in School Programs

   I posted about this quite a while ago, but in the meantime missed an application deadline so had to wait an entire year to continue with this. This is my experience with applying to and being accepted for the VA's VANEEP scholarship. What is VANEEP?...

5. Quitting during Orientation?!?!?!

   Non Sequitir replied to mar2112's topic in General Nursing

   It would be prudent to speak with this person vis a vis before throwing in the towel via email. If they are absolutely unwilling to accommodate your school schedule then that is unreasonable, and no future employer, if they even ever knew that you h...

6. Patient is a sex offender with a tracker on his ankle

   Non Sequitir replied to Alex_RN's topic in General Nursing

   Good grief, all this talk about searching for people on google...convicts are all registered on city and/or state law enforcement websites, and yes the information may be pertinent if, as aforementioned, the floor also sees adolescents. If this or a...

7. AZ APRN can't get a CO position!

   Non Sequitir replied to OBrien-FNP's topic in Advanced

   I would call the CO SBN back and hopefully get another person, just say you are out of state. Sounds like the person with whom you spoke possibly doesn't know whet they're talking about. Board of Nursing: Advanced Practice Applications and Forms Doc...

8. ER/ Trauma vs Trauma ICU

   Non Sequitir replied to Alexxoxox's topic in Emergency

   It's basically the same difference between the ER and any other floor. The ER stabilizes with the goal of 'how quickly can we get this pt to where they need to go', the floors treat with the aim to fix the problem. That's a gross oversimplification...

9. To the Nurse held Hostage yesterday

   Non Sequitir replied to YoutubeTheNP's topic in General Nursing

   Agree 100%. In my current non-nursing role, I work very closely with providers and nurses in an ER, including when law enforcement is called on scene for patients with active warrants. Some of our nurses - as awesome as they are otherwise - have ta...

    Thanks for this :)

11. VANEEP

    Non Sequitir posted a topic in School Programs

    This is an update to my previous thread, which can be found here. I've been accepted to a competitive BSN program at the local university, now the question is how I pay for all of this...for some context I have a wife, 2 kids, a car payment, mortgage...

    Word. Thank you for the input.

13. I quit the PA rat race.

    Non Sequitir replied to Non Sequitir's topic in Pre-Nursing

    My intention with the op was to list the reasons why I chose to, as the title says, quit the pa school rat race. I mean no offense to PAs, students, applicants, or hopefuls. I just found that it is not the path for me. I don't see PAs fading out e...

    I appreciate your feedback and advice, many thanks. Thank you, and best of luck to you as well.

    Wow, you all are incredibly supportive. I thank all of you for your humorous and encouraging responses. If this board is reflection of the profession itself, then I really look forward to my pending admission decision with the local state U. Shoul...
