1. Is a FNP working for a Psychiatrist legal ??

   MC1906 replied to lmonet82's topic in NP

   I definitely would not do it because its not an area I am trained in as a FNP. Just like I should not manage ICU patients either, because I'm not an Acute Care NP. My ICU experience as a RN would not hold up in court. Nothing wrong with treating medi...

   MC1906 replied to emain86's topic in PACU

   I think it would be good to look at some data and show it to the Drs. and your director. They may be unaware that they are taking so long to progress through in Phase II. Nausea: there are a few things that you can give preop that will help. To add ...

   MC1906 replied to ksteen's topic in NP Students

   I graduated from Ball State in July 2013. I'm glad the program was designed the way that it was because I was able to continuing working full time. The last semester is the most challenging, especially because of the amount of clinical hours you have...

9. FNP review classes

   MC1906 replied to sugarsweet21612's topic in NP Students

   I used several resources because not everyone covers everything. Sometimes I understood something better from one person and not the other. Just depends on how much time you have and how you learn best. I studied for about 3 months. I passed both AAN...

11. FNP Certification Review Book

    MC1906 replied to olvr00's topic in NP Students

    The M.Fitzgerald CDs were God sent. They are definintely a great way to review for the boards and for test during school. I would listen to them in the car over and over. I used M.Fitzgerald book, CDs, and Leik's book. Passed both ANCC and AANP, fir...

    MC1906 replied to bsnanat2's topic in NP

    I recently tested and passed the exam. IMHO there really isn't a great benefit to doing a review course that is non-NP focused. Ere are tons of NP reviews available that will prepare you for the exam. I used several np review resources to prepare. Lo...

    MC1906 replied to cougdogrn's topic in NP Students

    Nervous...but I PASSED! MUCH harder than I would have ever thought this exam would be. I would definitely get the yellow book from ANCC, familynpprep.com questions were really helpful and use Fitzgerald (attend a seminar or buy the CDs). If anyone ha...
