   Two jobs, one has to go

   aerorunner80 posted a topic in NP

   I have been working at an urgent care clinic for the last two months. I'm not liking it. I'm a new grad FNP (May 2019). It's 12 hour shifts. 1 hour drive each way. No benefits. Have to provide my own malpractice insurance. Pay is good ($55/hr ...

   How long it took you to find your first NP job

   aerorunner80 replied to singleye's topic in NP

   It took me 3 months after graduating to find both of my jobs. For my main gig, I'm still in the credentialing process. For my side hustle, I start tomorrow.

   Job offer. Urgent care

   aerorunner80 replied to aerorunner80's topic in NP

   I will not be on my own during this time. I will be in the process of getting credentialed. When I go on my own, then I get full pay. During credentialing, someone will be signing off on my charts.

   FP Notebook

   aerorunner80 posted a topic in NP

   Does anyone here have experience using the FP Notebook app? I like that it's MUCH cheaper than Up to Date but is it as informative?

   What's the difference between a NICU nurse and a pitbull? The pitbull will eventually release.

   Doctors Say the Darnedest Things

   aerorunner80 replied to allnurses's topic in General Nursing

   Not a quote but rather a situation. One time a resident went to consent parents for a circumcision .......on a girl!!!! The resident didn't even realize it until one of us (nurses) said something to him.

    Same Undergraduate & Graduate College?

    aerorunner80 replied to Icooka4u's topic in NP Students

    I couldn't agree more. I got my undergrad and am getting my MSN at the same school. What I like about this is that I already know the system and am familiar with how the school of nursing operates so I'm hoping that the transition into a graduate d...

    Exactly how competitive are MSN-FNP programs?

    aerorunner80 replied to smnoh's topic in NP Students

    I'm accepted into my local state school and will start classes this May. Not everyone who interviewed got into the program so it was moderately competitive. It's nothing like applying for CRNA school, which is extremely competitive (I applied and i...

    We'd like to offer you the position but............

    aerorunner80 replied to aerorunner80's topic in General Nursing

    I'm actually looking to different areas with better hours such as PACU. If I'm going to work holidays and weekends, I'd almost rather stay where I'm at because I have a lot of seniority.

    Facebook groups and professional boundaries

    aerorunner80 posted a topic in General Nursing

    I am very active in some local Facebook groups. I go to meetups regularly and participate in online discussions. It's inevitable that the parents of a patient will end up in one of the groups I'm active in (they are parenting type groups). My questi...

    aerorunner80 replied to aerorunner80's topic in General Nursing

    I actually spent a year and a half floating to PICU to get more experience in hopes it would help. We are not allowed to float to adult areas because we are a children's hospital.

    I didn't realize it may be asked on purpose. I hope I handled it well enough. I really want this job I interviewed for on Wednesday. It seemed like it went well but I haven't gotten a call yet and they took the posting down the next day. I'm just...
