NP Binder

I'm a new NP.  I began working at a nursing home and wow was that a mistake.  There are a lot of problems at that facility and I didn't think it was safe for my license/liability to stay there.  Im starting a job at a family practice job in 2 weeks and I want to be well-prepared.  What do you guys have in your NP reference binders?  I've saved little things along the way thorough school and I'm looking to add to mine.  What do you guys suggest?  Just simple little "cheat sheats" that might help me along the way

    UpToDate is awesome and they have an app for quick references.

    5minute clinical consult is my general go to.  I like uptodate for the nitty gritty.

    @babyNP. @djmatte thanks guys for the recommendations!  I definitely already use both of those references like every single day.  I have UTD on my phone and I have the hardcover version of 5min clinical consult.  I'm looking more for suggestions quick-reference pages to put in a binder like dosing children's tylenol, CPT codes, anemia labs to order for workup, etc.  I have a pretty good one already started, but looking to add some stuff I may have not thought about.  I appreciate the input!

    Labs we have Epic.  So lots of functionality to create my own lists for whatever typical things I see.  I really just recommend having go to short cuts wherever possible.  A fatigue other diagnosis nets you a broad range of labs to cover a lot of bases.  Having short lists of labs for common diagnosis either in the EMR, posted on your desktop, or listed elsewhere goes a long way.

    @anchorRN Hi, Im a new FNP grad and recently hired for a family practice office as well. I was wondering what has been your experience so far and if you found any good cheat sheets that has helped you. I read the comments and bought 5 min clinical and uptodate as suggested. If you or anyone here have any notes or any other recommendations that could help me along the way would be greatly appreciated! My email is [email protected]
