1. Certification exams AANP vs. ANCC

   StaceyFNP replied to JACKMAC's topic in NP

   I took AANP cerification. Fitzgerald's is the only review I used. It was very helpful. I highly recommend it! I learned stuff not even taught in my program

2. Differences (Educative/Clinical) between NP & PA

   StaceyFNP replied to jstuben's topic in NP

   No. I had all those and they were helpful. In my opinion, the extensive amount of research, nsg. history was something I could have done without.

3. What is the average hourly pay for a FNP

   StaceyFNP replied to chyrn's topic in NP

   I am an FNP in Texas making $50/hr with benefits. I work in a minor care of an ER. I just switched to this job from a pvt. practice clinic where I earned $70K + bonus and benefits.

4. Differences (Educative/Clinical) between NP & PA

   StaceyFNP replied to jstuben's topic in NP

   Wow! Lots of thoughts about advanced practice. I am glad to be in advanced practice nursing, but if there had been a choice of a PA school closeby, I would have done that instead. I liked the fact that the PA programs offer more clinical training ...

5. Triage sucks!!! Any tips??

   StaceyFNP replied to BrnEyedGirl's topic in Emergency

   4 hour increments help the task of triaging not drive you completely nuts. It can also be entertaining. Try not to take it personally.

   I completed my MSN at Tech in a collaborative program. I was very pleased with the program comparatively.
