  3. ANP to FNP

    I have been an adult NP for 9 years. I have been working in diabetes for past 3 years. As I pursue other job opportunities many listings are for FNP despite not having a lot of peds patients I have been thinking of getting my FNP certification. I h...
  4. Adult NP asked to cover call for Endocrinology

    Thanks for all the information. Our community based hospital medical staff is not receptive to hospitalists managing their pts- probably why the Endo gets bombarded with call- but I do believe he may prefer this process of handling these pts. Now th...
  5. Adult NP asked to cover call for Endocrinology

    Interesting but the Endo states how he gets called all night on dka patients, bg readings. Wonder if this is something he prefers! I do see this as an opportunity to grow but would like to see the salary be in alignment with the responsibility Tha ...
  6. Adult NP asked to cover call for Endocrinology

    Adult NP with 8 yrs experience. Currently working in suburban Endo clinic w 2 docs. I see outpatient DM & thyroid patients. 1 of the docs is leaving and they have approached me to take call instead of replacing the doc. (No talk of salary adjus...
  7. NPs ever have to take call?

    As a clarification of above - I'm here to serve the patients as well but feel our salary should be commensurate with the responsibility and level of care we provide My patients always ask- "why didn't you become a md" my response was because I e...
  8. NPs ever have to take call?

    That is my point precisely. The other endos in clinic salary is significantly more than what I am making. I know the newest is at base of $160k + bonus. I'm at mid90s no bonus- now with a proposed 50% call- which would be one week on, one week off No...
  9. NPs ever have to take call?

    I don't even know where to start with negotiations. I'm just concerned if we don't start setting a precedent- it will be expected as part of our duty. Sure , physicians don't get paid to take call, but their compensation historically has been in alig...
  10. NPs ever have to take call?

    Our primary clinic is looking to transition NP/PA to start taking call but also to incorporate specialty clinics to cover call; I am in endocrine so the thought would be to cover patient AND hospital/ER call (DKA patients) 1 week/month. My issue is...
  11. Benefits

    Just accepted a position with a community hospital setting. I will be a "pioneer" NP in their organization. Unfortunately I do not feel that their HR department is up to par on their salary and benefit offerings. I came from a solo practice provide...
  12. Consider going for MD?

    I did not mean for it to sound "special". It is an ad in nursing mags I have read (Advance for Nursing) that is an ad that states NP to MD- on your terms...whatever that means. I have never called the number. The next time I see it, I will post the...
  13. NP's Malpractice insurance....

    I used to be with NSO, but then I found Marsh and Affinity Ins services. Very competitive rates. I work part time so they offered p/t premium where NSO did not. This was important for my first job b/c my employer did not pay /cover NPs malpractice.
  14. Going back to school!

    I did my NP program working part time with 2 children, ages 5 & 1. I started with only 2 classes/semester. After my first year, I became pregnant and decreased to 1 class/semester. I had great family support and I my job at the time was very f...
  15. Anyone wait to get a NP job?

    I would look into your new states licensure--I think it is best to get the NP experience sooner than later. I remember when I was close to graduating, I wanted to stay in my current RN job--it was my "safe, comfort zone". But, I kept my ears open a...
