I am considering attending the 2 year Associates/ADN Nursing program at the City Colleges. I already have a bachelor's degree and would like to get my associates RN then earn my MSN while working....

…missed a few additional gems from this post… Correct, but not because there is a mandate/requirement for the DNP. Because the DNP is not really a clinical degree, schools can tack on...

This post is not correct and once again makes it seem like this is a done deal and a finalized issue when it's not at all. Please take a look at this post from one of the AllNurses site guides...

You might want to consider posting your question on an LGBT message board instead/as well. Generally speaking, any health care practitioner who DOES treat people differently because of their sexual...

It's not an "unfair assumption", it's a direct and clear assessment of your response. The response of the OP is irrelevant. (Thought I wouldn't blame them for not wanting to respond after your...

It's really not that mysterious. One can have a basic understanding of a type of job from educational program descriptions, reading message boards, and other internet research. However...this is...

Direct entry programs are a great option. Just be aware that the 1st year where you get your accelerated RN license is usually pretty expensive in these programs. Also, be aware that you will have...

Right now, I am quite confident that the concept of clinical psychologists gaining prescription rights on any kind of wide scale is in no way something that someone entering the mental health field...

I wouldn't be worried about psychologists universally getting prescriptive rights any time soon. Currently, psychologists only have prescriptive rights in Louisiana and New Mexico and for some...

Just to be clear, the DNP isn't going to be mandatory by 2015.

Josh, Please don't listen to anyone who tells you it's too late to start on a career path in health care. Especially if you just graduated high school a year ago? You have so much time to do...

Yes, you may have read that on the website but there is such a thing as larger context and specificity. Let me direct you to a number of threads on this issue that come up with a simple search on...

You took the words out of my mouth BlueDevil :yeah:

Zenman, would you mind elaborating on what you are defining as an "integrative psychiatry" practice and the elements or modalities you envision it will include? Also, is this practice something...

Thanks for the input mojo. Please know that if you face the wrath of the Psych NP Illuminati, your sacrifice will have been appreciated. :yeah: Are there any other brave Psych NPs out there who...

Hey Myelin! I am looking to apply at Yale, University of California San Fran, Columbia, and Oregon Health & Science. Their curriculums seem to be the most comprehensive as far as direct-entry...

So glad I found this thread. I am a black male pre-nursing student. If all works out as planned, I will be a black male Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. I suspect that will make me the nursing...

I don't think anyone here was suggesting this in any way. I was originally planning to pursue a PhD in Clinical Psychology and decided that the Psych NP path was a better choice for me for several...

Just as I suspected…nothing but the sound of crickets…. I think this is a conspiracy designed to reduce market saturation for Psych NPs. I bet when you graduate and get your Psych NP you...

I think I've seen posts from both of you in threads similar to this regarding the "Psych NP Experience". I'm starting to think that the majority of Psych NP are keeping quiet in response to these...

Hello All! I am an aspiring Psych NP currently taking my prerequisite classes. I have been reading and searching through this board for many months now (and will continue to) in order to try and...

Hey Ataylor65! If you are also interested in psych, some of the programs I have found are: University of Illinois Chicago http://www.uic.edu/nursing/prospectivestudents/gep-about.shtml...

Hello All, This is my first post on this forum. I am looking into accelerated bsn/direct entry psych NP programs and need some clarification from the pros. From what I can see, many of...
