  1. Olivet FNP/FNP-C

    Hello! Looking for those currently enrolled in Olivet Nazarene University FNP/FNP-C for 2021/2022. I've been searching and cannot find any groups with current students! If you have attended there recently or are attending I'd love to hear how i...
  2. Best RN jobs to have more time for children/family

    I went from full time ICU nights to part time 8 hour shifts in outpatient. It has made my home life so much better. I have soon to be 3 kids- all weekends and holidays off with them. Outpatient always has options to pick up extra shifts and because I...
  3. Alright allnurses folks! Looking for opinions over here! Are internal job transfers considered job hopping? I currently work for a very large health system. I was hired a year ago into my "dream" job. I stayed 8 months and found out that I did not li...
  4. Olivet Nazarene or Chamberlain MSN/FNP

    Hey everyone! Starting Olivet FNP program soon. Working part time and going to go through the classes full time- with two kids under 5. How many hours per week are you studying/homework for the first year?
  5. What was your hardest prerequisite course?

    A & P for sure. Only class I got a C in (79%) I hated it so much that I did not want to retake it for a higher grade. I LOVED pathophysiology though!
  6. 40 yr old with GED. Is a MSN even possible?

    Go for it! I pretty much blew off all of high school- barely graduated. I got older and more mature and wanted to go to college to be a nurse. I started at a community college, took the placement tests and started from there. I studied my behind off ...
  7. What's the meanest thing a patient has said to you?

  9. Your Starting Salary?

    27.15 plus differential (I mostly work weekends, 7-3 is 2$ extra and 3-7 is 4.50 extra) I work in a LTC/ rehab in the Chicago suberbs.
  10. So I am a new grad- 7 months in. I currently have been working in a subacute rehab/LTC since I passed boards. I had applied to many jobs without offers, so I took an offer from a facility with the highest rate of pay and the quickest start date. As s...
  11. Recommendations for online FNP-30k range

    I have just started applying to Olivet. I sent in my application and transcripts yesterday to begin in August. How long did it take for you to find out that you were accepted? Do you know what the average GPA that is accepted into the NP program? I h...
  12. Hi everyone! I always frequent this site and never contribute to anything so here it goes! I passed NCLEX on June 4th. I referred to this site for people's opinions on study material and I received a lot of great help. I took the exam almost a month...
  13. Do you auscultate your NGs?

    I was also taught that auscultation in itself is not accurate. It is acceptable with other interventions to confirm placement. If we are dealing with a preexisting NG tube that has already been verified by imaging, we just need to aspirate, assess PH...
  14. ATI predictor

    Hi all! I am scheduled to take the ATI predictor Late February. Any tips for studying for this? Do you study the same way as the other ATI's (take exam-focused review-take all available practice tests?) Thanks for the help in advance!
  15. HELP!! Evolve Adaptive Learning/Quizzing

    I do not know about the adaptive learning, but we are doing the questions. We have to get to level 5 for all the ones assigned for the week. This week we had 3 tests to get to level 5, I got all done in one night and it was less than 200 questions.
