  1. How far would you drive?

  2. APRN role in specialty clinic

    if the attending wants to bill under his/her name (incident to) then the initial visit must be completed by the attending. If you are billing under your own name there is no reason you can't see the patient initially. I work in a specialty and when w...
  3. Does anyone do medical writing?

    Goldenrod, you plan to write articles on the topic of your choice and then submit them for publication? I guess my first step would be getting my paper from school published... It was rejected from the first journal i submitted to and then i started ...
  4. Does anyone do medical writing?

    I have extensive freelance writing/editing experience but not in the medical field. How do I break in? I'd like to work on a freelance basis. I actually interviewed once for a clinical editing job with a major publisher but they required full time an...
  5. NPs in the Emergency Department

    I do not work in an ER but I did do clinical rotations in an ER so I will try to answer some of your questions. - What level ESIs do you see? Do you see only 4/5s? Or all acuities? As a student I only saw 4-5's but I shadowed on more acute patients a...
  6. The Story of Jahi Continues

    My thoughts exactly. There hasn't been any real break in this case for over a year. I'm also surprised she's held out as long as she has, but the family will do whatever they're gonna do. For people who ask why they can't move on, maybe the question ...
  7. Suturing

    We had a suturing workshop in NP school but I didn't have an opportunity to practice the skill in clinicals. During my ER rotation they mostly used glue. In my workplace suturing doesn't come up.
  8. Online Schools--Is it a "jungle out there"?

    I got my first bachelor's through an online school, which I was then able to use to get into an accelerated nursing program (I did science pre-reqs at a brick-and-mortar). My experience with them was very good. I had an advisor who was very supportiv...

  10. Physician Extender ???

    Why not? I am proud to use the term nurse and I always consider myself a nurse first and foremost in the way I approach and relate to a patient.
  11. First Job for New Grads

    My first job is in pediatric pulmonology. Pros: 1. an area where there's a lot of need (where I live has one of the highest rates of asthma in the country) and you can really see your work making a difference in kids' lives 2. Lots of autonomy, I wor...
  12. Does any NP regret becoming one

    I don't regret becoming an NP but I sometimes regret my choice of specialty. I still feel that pediatrics is the best fit for me in terms of personality and aptitude, but I wish I had gone with a higher-paying choice. Also, the FNP program was only o...
  13. NP starting salaries in the Capital region of NY

    As a new grad RN I interviewed for a job in Albany Medical Center and the starting salary for an RN was about 50k, so 80k for an NP does not surprise me.
  14. New NP feeling so out of place in new job

    I have been working as an NP for about a year and a half. What you feel is completely normal. For a good six months I felt like I was play-acting. I checked everything with the MD. Now I check maybe 1 in 10 patients with the MD. I work in a specialty...
  15. What is the best NP job you have seen???

    There is no single best NP job. The best job is the one that's the best fit for you. Sometimes you have to see the opportunities and use your job as a platform to get to where you want to be. You may not have a lot of choices straight out of school f...
