1. OCU FNP-DNP

   secretagent2011 replied to Miss Kitty00's topic in Oklahoma

   I don't know exactly how difficult it is to get in. I believe 50 applied or so and 24 got in. Small class size. But that's just for the part time program. I really enjoy the pace, the professors, and the atmosphere. I did my undergrad at OU and I tho...

2. OCU FNP-DNP

   secretagent2011 replied to Miss Kitty00's topic in Oklahoma

   I'm enrolled currently. I havent really had much going on with it yet bc we just had orientation. From what I can tell though it seems like a solid program. A lot of NP schools are online and this one is in person for a lot of the classes ex: patho a...

4. Night shift and school

   secretagent2011 posted a topic in NP Students

   I'm about to switch to night shift and start school in the same week. WOO! Any advice on how to switch to daytime life for my class once a week. Most weeks work will be sun-tues nights and then Thursday class.

5. Interview questions

   secretagent2011 replied to secretagent2011's topic in NP Students

   From what I've gathered from other NP students and also my Dad (who is a physician) most interviews aren't that intense. I was also asked what I would write my doctoral capstone paper over and how I would research it. I was however accepted to the pr...

7. Oklahoma City New Grad Nurses

   secretagent2011 replied to kjordan5's topic in Oklahoma

   I am in a large hospital in Tulsa. My pay is 20.70 base but on nights I'm 24.70 with differentials. But I have friends who make more bc they did their externships and the Tulsa hospitals they work at

8. Oklahoma City New Grad Nurses

   secretagent2011 replied to kjordan5's topic in Oklahoma

   It's so weird how Tulsa pay is better when the cost of living in OKC is higher. I work in Tulsa but my friends in OKC are paying minimum 200 more in rent. Not cool

10. POSITIVITY

    secretagent2011 replied to secretagent2011's topic in Rock

    Very true that's what I try to remember at work or at clinicals during school, it's hard for people to dislike you or be harsh if you're smiling!

11. POSITIVITY

    secretagent2011 replied to secretagent2011's topic in Rock

    I assumed you could report but didn't know how thank you! I wouldn't ever do that if it wasn't myself being attacked but I just think we need to all be mindful of how we approach topics and responses. This site is meant to be a resource and forum for...

12. Extremely Overweight Nurses

    secretagent2011 replied to WonderousIvy's topic in Career Support

    I know people have said this but as someone who has had an eating disorder (anorexia) I'm sure the times I was eating 500 cals a day was a time I was impaired, which was before I was a nurse or even a nursing student. And I feel like I'm impaired if ...

13. POSITIVITY

    secretagent2011 posted a topic in Rock

    Sometimes this site can be a little disheartening. I love to read allnurses to hear the struggles and hopefully the joys that we experience as professionals in this profession. But sometimes it is so sad to see how quick we all are to jump down each ...

14. MDs dont own the physician title

    secretagent2011 replied to platon20's topic in Doctoral

    Thanks for that info! I only used that term bc my current employer and all my clinicals have used it. I didn't realize it was derogatory. Very glad to know what the AANP stance is on it though.

15. MDs dont own the physician title

    secretagent2011 replied to platon20's topic in Doctoral

    I'm currently in NP school getting my DNP but as much as I'm sure I will be proud of my Doctorate at the end of the day I don't want to confuse my patients. My father is a physician and keeps saying you could technically be "Dr." But I say in my area...
