Hi, I'm a Ph.D. student but not in nursing nor am I an RN. I think there are different perspectives, with regard to PhD education, in all allied health/nursing professions where the masters in the entry level (e.g., advanced practice nursing, OT, SLP...
Hi everybody. Next semester I plan on enrolling in the advanced patho class in the nursing department. The course is required for masters students attempting to become NPs or CNSs. I am not a nursing major but rather am a PhD student in a non-nursing...
ASL is also more prevalent in areas that have large Deaf communities (e.g., Washington, D.C., New York, and California). Many school systems teach SEE (SEE2) which is a manual version of English. Although ASL and SEE may share many signs, the syntax ...

You might be better off checking into Anesthesia Assistant or Physician Assistant programs. They are more geared towards biology majors. Anestheisa Assistants are essentially the same as Nurse Anesthetists except they are only licensed to practice in...

Do/can CRNAs do evoked potential monitoring? I was told they do EEG monitoring (at least MDAs do) but that SSEP, VEP, and AEP makes it to difficult because it detracts from the ability to monitor anesthesia. I know in the past evoked potential resear...
The faculty are needed before it produces DrNP graduates! I don't see how this helps the faculty shortage! I'm not sure about nursing but in many other fields tenure for faculty members (associate professor rank) requires an academic doctorate (e.g.,...
I don't mean to offend anyone but some of the responses I've read have somewhat irritated me. I do agree that PAs and NPs are relatively equal. Neither mid-level is inherently superior. When comparing the two, it really comes down to the individual c...
One problem that just came to mind relates to those colleges that belong to universities that are not doctoral-granting institutions. Many smaller colleges/universities award the master's as their highest degree available. I wonder if this transition...
The practical value is primarily political. Having a doctorate as the entry-level for a particular profession, in this case advanced practice nursing, sets a profession up to move towards autonomy. I would say that the quest for autonomy and all the ...
