   brownrice replied to cosmetic tattooist's topic in Entrepreneurs

   Hi! I have been to your website and tried to call but couldn't get through on the number....to comment on your post here, I think this is a novel idea because I do believe there are many services being "held captive" by traditional providers. Not th...

2. Aesthetics Nursing

   brownrice replied to NurseKimberley's topic in Aesthetics

   The best and only way I know of to get the information regarding the laws in any state is to call the state, department of nursing, and speak with someone about the laws. Ask them to direct you to their website, which will list their respective laws...

   Hi: Regarding fixing up your place....with some creativity, you can end up with a much cozier, neater feel than the newer, glitzy strip malls!! You need not spend a lot of money, just like Periwinkles is saying--be creative! Now, for your sink: Ther...

5. What is the average hourly pay for a FNP

   brownrice replied to chyrn's topic in NP

   I would also move away from the area. Statistics reveal that the midwest is the "armpit" of the nation if you will, for NP salaries/respect. Conversely, both coasts offer much high salaries for NP's/PA's. Perhaps the fact the AMA is centered is Chi...

6. RN-BSN or MPH?

   brownrice replied to Pianoforte's topic in Career Support

   Was having the MPH degree not marketable in you geographical area? This, ultimately is one of the reasons I have chosen the NP track, which I am currently in. I love epidemiology, prevention, etc. However, unless I was prepared to move to the capito...

7. AMA must be disturbed

   brownrice replied to ERNP's topic in NP

   Notice the wording is medical doctors. Not just doctors. They are opposing nursing doctorates or "doctors of nursing". The AMA is not just now setting out to quash the scope and rights of midlevels. It's a little late for that.

8. AMA must be disturbed

   brownrice replied to ERNP's topic in NP

   Okay, this is pretty clear to me. It is saying that if you are not an MD, OD, or DDental med/Dental surgery, that you cannot imply, advertise or connote to the unsuspecting public that you are a doctor ready to practice to heal someone under the guis...

9. NP w/no desire for RN?

   brownrice replied to Pinoy2.0's topic in NP

   Cyndee MSN RN: What is a "top tier" university doing hiring NP instructors who were "never RN's?" And what does this say about the quality of education you received from this "top tier" university?

10. Washington Nursing Students, Fall 06

    brownrice replied to pegbord's topic in Washington

    Just wondering, did any of you consider an online program? I'm now in a grad program (FNP)...switched from WSU in a hurry--just did it initially because it was here in the state and didn't think there would be that much difference in programs, boy w...

    Ch123 Hello! I'm cruising the website and came across your question. I'm an FNP student with a year to go (43yrs old, if that matters at all)...but I couldn't resist offering my 2 cents. If this is what you want to do, of course you need to go for ...

12. FNP's - how much psych do you do?

    brownrice replied to catch33er's topic in NP

    Dear Catch33er: I empathize with your plight. I will be an FNP in a year, and could just as well be facing this issue. As you remember from the pm I sent, I'm about an hour away from you geographically. I emailed one of my favorite NP professors P...

13. Why would she say this?

    brownrice replied to ellieRN06's topic in NP

    If nurses continue to refuse to unite and organize, demanding better pay/respect commensurate with the level of education and responsibility they shoulder, they will only continue to work crappy hours, holidays, nights and weekends, passing out meds ...

    CGFNP: Amen! You are RIGHT ON with your message. Some may not like the direct approach, but yes, XXXXXXXXXXX. Those that can't stand the heat need to get outta the kitchen. There is something to be said for those with the courage to say it like it is...
