I'm not sure why so many of you are being so mean. This woman is asking for advice and it's obvious that she is suffering from depression. Where is your compassion? Neezy- I recommend you find a therapist- (not a psychiatrist). It sounds like you do...
The National Health Service offers loan repayment facilities in underserved areas in the US. It doesn't necessarily mean you have to relocate though- I live in Tennessee and ever county in the state qualifies as an underserved area. I can think of 3 ...
I went to a Master's Entry Program. We, of course, were in our final classes with the NP students who were RNs first. I felt that there was no difference in ability, or understanding in the students who were master's entry vs the students who were RN...
I also have contacted the program coordinators. I am interested in both what a student of the program has to say vs what a coordinator of the program has to say. As I said above I have 2 young children and I currently live about 11 hours away from Ch...

Why are you depressed? Sounds like you did great! They would not be holding your test for Q and A if you failed- why bother? I hated all of the hype around the NCLEX- it was stupid. It is not a hard test, and if you made it through nursing school, th...
Have you thought about this...? I knew a lot of people who would get a low level job in a big hospital before going to nursing school. Big hospital systems will often pay for a person to go to nursing school as a benefit, provided that you continue t...
Hi! I am a Family Nurse Practitioner and I live in Memphis. I have two small children and am married. We may be moving to New Orleans, but I am having trouble getting good info on the city- esp info on education. I know that the public school situati...
If anyone can give me some information out there, I would really appreciate it. I work in a weight loss clinic and mainly prescribe phentermine. I have worked there for 2 1/2 years and the atmosphere of the office was always very positive. My supervi...
