   So sorry this happened to you. I would definitely try to take a deep breath, get up and dust off your clothing as it was a little stumble. It was also an experience that you can use as ammunition for the next round. I would certainly consider registe...

2. Job Search New FNP

   RNBSN11 replied to TicTok411's topic in NP

   I would definitely start the process during middle or latter part in your last semester. Certainly evaluating job market for the area. See if the area also has an NP program, as it may make it tougher if competing in a new market with local candidate...

7. Would you be willing to do this?

   RNBSN11 replied to CocoaLoverFNP's topic in NP

   I would NOT agree to a 2 month orientation without pay. This physician sounds like an inconsiderate jerk that only values his own time! He likely would not be a great mentor when one is needed (during those first years).

8. Do you text your patients?

   RNBSN11 replied to automotiveRN67's topic in Advanced

   I do not give my cell number to patients.

9. AANP failed

   RNBSN11 replied to lcharris's topic in NP Students

   I am so sorry. I know this can be very upsetting, but also perhaps a learning experience. FIRST, take a small break and then gather your thoughts. Do you usually do well on exams? Did your school have you take HESI exam? During the testing, did you ...
