   Thank you, I will look into the HPSA. Unfortunately, I can't move at this time. I just moved to my current location (Nashville) in May because of my husband's job. I have been applying at places outside of the city. And I am getting responses and the...

4. Frustrated New Grad

   AshleelRenee posted a topic in NP

   I am beyond frustrated looking for a job. I graduated with my FNP in May. It's now 6 months later and I still don't have a job. I have applied for everything. I have sent my CV to countless number of clinics and made connections. No one will even int...

5. Do I really need a DEA?

   AshleelRenee posted a topic in NP

   I just got a job as a NP at a hair restoration clinic doing injection procedures. There is no controlled substances administered or prescribed. The employer is not willing to pay for the DEA, and I'm wondering if I really need it? I don't want to pay...

   Hello All, I'll be graduating with my FNP in December and I'd love to work in a Med Spa. I've been looking for jobs, but many require years of injection experience. I'm concerned that I will get over looked because I'll be a new grad and my backgroun...

8. Where are all the NP preceptors out there?

   AshleelRenee replied to kittypants247's topic in NP Students

   Finding a preceptor is difficult no matter what part of the country you are located in. I felt pretty hopeless at times, but eventually I did find all my preceptors. The best advise: start looking early, as many preceptors fill up and it can be diffi...

    AshleelRenee replied to gelli.25's topic in NP Students

    I asked in a variety of ways. I asked in person, had a mutual contact give them a heads up, called, and e-mailed. Calling can be difficult because they are busy with patients, meetings, ect. In this day and age, I personally don't think it's distaste...

12. Philly Vs. New Jersey

    AshleelRenee posted a topic in NP Students

    My husband just took a new job in Philadelphia. I'm a couple months away from taking my ANCC exam. Looking at the job market, I'm wondering if it's better to work in New Jersey. The pay seems to be better and offers more independence as a NP. Can an...

13. Low GPA for NP school

    AshleelRenee replied to iharticu's topic in NP Students

    Many programs require a 3.0 or 3.5 gpa to apply; however, the chances of you being accepted with a lower gpa are slim. You can always retake classes to replace lets say a C grade with an A. My undergrad gpa for my my associates was 3.25. I was not ac...
