  1. Can you recommend a PDA

    I use an HTC touch. This is also my phone. You can add up to 4gig mem so I also use it for mp3s... The only issue is when texting it is difficult to get used to. I have free apps from Merck Medicus which can be activated using your license number for...
  2. ADN to NP... how?

    I did this in Mississippi. The BSN program at South Alabama is a good program and is online. I was able to do this working full time and it takes 2 semesters with 1 summer. For Mississippi, the out of state tuition was waived (you'll need to check fo...
  3. Unsure about your skills as a NP

  8. Is this standard treatment for a new NP?

    This may take a while and this is my 1st post so please forgive my rambling. I completed NP school in August and started a new job on Sept 1st. My "big test" is on the 22nd. My job is at a clinic with 3 MDs who have never had an NP there and if I wer...
