1. DNP Project

   NursKam replied to NursKam's topic in Doctoral

   Thank you for your response. I am actually already an NP with my MSN, so I’m not worried about clinical sites and preceptors etc. I’m more curious about the capstone project, but I see you have addressed that as well. Thank your

2. DNP Project

   NursKam posted a topic in Doctoral

   Hey guys! I'm starting to think about going back for my DNP and I want to know how intense the project is. How was your experience in the program and with the project? That seems to be the only thing scaring me off from going back for my DNP. I know ...

   Does anyone know when we'll hear something? I'm guessing by late June or early July. I hope it's soon!

   Good luck to everyone! I hope we all get chosen! Let's stay in touch throughout the process! Also, For anyone who did not have a preceptorship in their program, like myself, they said we will still be considered. They will go off of clinical rotation...

   Hey guys! I wanted to start this thread for those of us that have applied to the UC Davis RN residency program for the August and October 2017 start dates! This is so exciting! Let's keep each other updated and support each other along the way!

6. Being Gay and a Male Nursing Student

   NursKam replied to RShieldsSN14's topic in Male Students

   I agree. It sounds like that particular nurse was being unprofessional. That kind of talk should be saved for outside of work.

7. Being Gay and a Male Nursing Student

   NursKam replied to RShieldsSN14's topic in Male Students

   I should probably also add that I live in California. That may have a lot to due with my experiences in the workplace, versus someone from a more conservative area.

8. Being Gay and a Male Nursing Student

   NursKam replied to RShieldsSN14's topic in Male Students

   I am gay and have never felt discriminated against in the workplace. My sexual orientation just does not seem to be an issue for my colleagues or my patients. If they do have an issue, they respectfully keep it to themselves. I am not overtly flamboy...

9. Should I go for my DNP?

   NursKam replied to NursKam's topic in NP Students

   Unfortunately, most hospitals around here offer very little tuition reimbursement. Nowhere near even half grad school tuition.

10. Should I go for my DNP?

    NursKam replied to NursKam's topic in NP Students

    Thanks for your reply! You're right. There is no real DNP requirement for NPs in the near future. I've had some time to contemplate the issue and for now, I'll save some money and go the MSN route.

11. Should I go for my DNP?

    NursKam posted a topic in NP Students

    Hey guys! I am looking for some input. I have been in the field for 7 years, working as a CNA and an ER Tech. I am about to finish my BSN this summer, and have already applied for a BSN to DNP-FNP program. I work alongside RNs and NPs in the ER, and ...

12. National University Fresno Cohort 15

    NursKam replied to NursKam's topic in California

    Hey there. Sorry for the late response. I've been really busy lately. First off, Bio Stats was easy! I hate math and aced the course. Just do your best in your prerequisites. Realistically to get in, you need to have above a 3.0 in your core classes,...

13. Help with Major CNA Problems

    NursKam replied to JSBoston's topic in Relations

    In response to Kooky Korky... I think you mean well, but I have to disagree with you on some points. First off, a floor nurse is not the boss or in charge of anyone but herself and her patients, so a floor nurse does not have the authority to give th...

14. CNA vs ER Tech experience

    NursKam replied to BrewCrew312's topic in General Students

    Having been both a CNA and now an ER Tech, both within the same hospital, I'd say either one will give you good experience. I was bored being a CNA on the same Tele floor for almost 5 years! I like the ER because it challenges me and is always someth...
