I just talked to the adviser about the PMHNP DNP program. She said we would have to meet on campus once a month for 8 hours (on Mondays, she thinks) for clinical courses only. And that our instructors would help us find preceptors and clinical sites....
I was accepted for the PMHNP full time program. Does anyone know if it's mainly on-line, or are there some classes in Gainesville? Have you heard anything about clinicals? I am also accepted at USA, so I'm calling for information next week before I m...

I feel the same way. I was working in an E.R. once and a coworker commented on a patient that had attempted to OD. She went on and on saying how this young person should have "just done it," and was "just whining" and was "wasting everyone's time." I...
Yes, they do what they are ordered to do because they took an oath to do so. They have to do things whether they agree with them or not because they took an oath to do so. They are not allowed to quit if they don't like it. You do not have to think t...
Ok, here's the deal...the folks in the military do what they are ordered to do. Just because you don't agree with the politics of a specific war, it doesn't mean that those same people have not taken an oath to defend the freedom of the country. The ...

Thank you for the great article. I am currently going through a preceptorship, and all I hear or read are horror stories. My experience so far has been nothing but pleasant. Maybe I'm just lucky, but so far everyone I have worked with has been patien...
Congrats on finishing high school and being accepted to college! I can only speak from my own experiences and perspective. I went into the military after school, then got married and had a kid, then made it back to nursing school. If I had it do over...
I am prior U.S. Navy. I was enlisted for 6 years, as a CT. Didn't love the job, but I have massive love for the military in general. Now that I'm a nurse, LPN soon to be RN, soon to be BSN, I am seriously wanting to join the Air Force...eventually. ...
I am interested in becoming a nurse practitioner, someday, and I have worked with a few great NP's. I was wondering what do you tell your patients to call you? One NP I know introduces herself by her first name, Sally, (not real name) and I have hear...
I am currently an LPN, working toward RN and beyond. I work in a primary care clinic and I love being a nurse, but if it were at all possible for me, I would go to med school. I'm afraid for me, though, that's it's just not possible right now. I'm 31...
