About Hello123456

I'm just another overly optimistic millennial :) I believe that the nursing needs to progress and innovate. New models of nursing education and nursing care need to be explored because current models are obviously flawed. To accomplish this, we need to form strong partnerships, build roots in research and academia, and advocate for advancement in our profession.

  1. ANCC FNP exam: My experience

    Hello123456 replied to GoodNP's topic in NP Students

    Same boat as Snarf. I passed FNP ANCC without too much studying. There were way more "soft" skill questions on the exam regarding how to approach patients of different cultures than I expected. It was almost 50% of the exam.

  2. New grad interested in operating room nursing

    Hello123456 replied to Nicole018's topic in Operating Room

    I was in the same boat, I hated med surg and ICU rotations when I was a student and chose OR as a new grad. It was the best decision I have ever made. It is true that you lose "nursing skills" such as NG tube/vents/hanging blood etc...the motor memor...

  3. Good San Francisco Operating theatres

    Hello123456 replied to lizkim80's topic in Operating Room

    I would just apply online. There a lot of openings in all of the SF operating rooms. Here are some of the the places my friends or myself have worked as an OR nurse in SF/Bay Area: 1. Kaiser - (+) top tier pay grade, (+) benefits are great, (+) str...

  4. OR RN position for FNP or CRNA

    Hello123456 replied to alalani3's topic in Operating Room

    I was referring to the original author's concern regarding exit opportunities in OR versus ICU, not "critical care". In any case, all schools require "critical care" experience. However, some schools define "critical care" broadly to include ER/OR...

  5. OR RN position for FNP or CRNA

    Hello123456 replied to alalani3's topic in Operating Room

    I was referring to ICU experience specifically, not critical care. "Critical care" experience is always necessary. However, some schools define "critical care" broadly (some will consider ER, OR, PACU as critical care). DUKE CRNA Admissions Requ...

  6. PhD student who is also a New Grad! So Confused!

    Hello123456 replied to magnoliablossoms's topic in Post Graduate

    I have a similar experience (PhD while working with the help of tuition/fees/benefits covered by the university). I 100% advocate for getting the nursing experience in psych (working part-time/per-diem) while working on your PhD. I did it and it was ...

  7. OR RN position for FNP or CRNA

    Hello123456 replied to alalani3's topic in Operating Room

    Great questions and I hope I can give you some insight on the topic. My first job was as a new grad nurse was in the OR (also with a 2 year contract in an academic hospital in SoCal). I am now an FNP with certification as NP surgical first assistant....
