   Nurses who have their own business?

   Nacki replied to indiangurl711's topic in Career Support

   I'm not an LNC, but have had my own business since 2014 and went full-time with it in 2020. What kind of business are you wanting to start?

   Business Ideas

   Nacki replied to MexicanFNP's topic in General Specialties

   You can do anything you like, it doesn't have to be nursing-related. What hobbies or interests do you and your wife have? Do you want to work remotely or have to go "out in the field" to complete your work? Are you going to offer ...

   Life after NP...

   Nacki replied to britt_possible's topic in Advanced

   Funny this topic should pop-up considering I'm strongly looking to get out of clinical work. This month marks 18 years as a nurse, with 5 as an NP. I enjoy making things (processes) easier and teaching others. Like others have said, I don't want to...

   How do you become a specialized NP? Does it require a post-masters?

   Nacki replied to nightrn5's topic in NP Students

   Check out Duke University's post-masters cerfications. They have cardiology, endocrinology, HIV/AIDS, Ortho, Oncology and VA care. I'm applying to the ortho program that starts this fall. Good luck!

   Occupational Health NP!!!

   Nacki replied to nursebetty24's topic in Advanced

   Way too low. I'm in Occ Health and my base is $110,000, this does not include my monthly bonuses and my stipend. I'm in Texas though and that may be the difference.

   Why I'm leaving nursing

   Nacki replied to UK nurse88's topic in General Nursing

   What a timely post. I've been in nursing for 15 years and have contemplated many times ways to leave nursing. I've obviously been unsuccessful because I'm still in nursing, although I'm an NP now. My role is different, but I still feel the effects of...

   How are you saving for retirement?

   Nacki replied to YoutubeTheNP's topic in NP

   I've heard about the "backdoor" Roth before, but I'm still confused on some points. I have both a Traditional IRA and a Roth IRA (not with the same company). Because of my income, I won't be able to contribute to the Roth anymore. Do you have to open...

    Private Practice- maternity leave?

    Nacki replied to l-styx's topic in Advanced

    How long will it take you to set up tele visits for your practice? Have you even looked into it? 5 mins from home without a kid is vastly different when you have one. You won't want to be too far after the baby is born.

    Telemedicine for FNP

    Nacki replied to MarBug7's topic in NP

    I do this, but don't work from home. I've written about it on the forums previously and I'm on a phone so I can't search for my old posts now. What states do you live in? My company has remote clinics in a variety of states.

    How to get DOT certificate

    Nacki replied to xiaobear007's topic in NP

    I've been looking into getting certified too. Is the CMV Medical Examiner Training from AANP the same thing? You have one year of access to the study material and the price is only $150 if you are a member. That sure beats the $300-$400 range I've be...

    Is there a market for tele-NPs?

    Nacki replied to bstacy1313's topic in NP

    1. Yes 2. Yes 3. Yes 4. Yes 5. Yes Pros include flexibility, keeping up with technology, being able to see patients quicker, seeing more patients (working in different time zones). Cons I currently see with my position are connection issues, remote ...

    Telemedicine for NPs

    Nacki replied to OUNURSE's topic in NP

    Hi OU Nurse. My company is based out of Texas. I don't know how the international aspect would work. We don't have any contracts in the VA/DC area. Bstacy- the remote NPs work out of an office in whatever city they live and do the consults from ther...
