   That's not necessarily true. I work in a small hospital in Tidewater area of Virginia and I've seen FNPs work in inpatient. It might not be everywhere, but I've seen it.

2. What a coincidence. . .every single student nurse who shadows me. . .

   ButterflyEffect06 replied to thesundowner's topic in General Nursing

   I'm doing the accelerated BSN track and have dreamed of becoming a CRNA for a while now. Not because of the money either, although the salary is a bonus, but because it seriously looks like something I'd enjoy doing until I'm crippled and can't do it...

3. Sometimes You Just Don't See It Coming

   ButterflyEffect06 replied to realnursealso/LPN's topic in Home Health

   LMBO!

7. Woo Hoo! Accepted into nursing program!
