  1. Yale GEPN 2020

    Ohm108 replied to think34's topic in School, College Programs

    If you want another certification in another specialty, you can come back for a post-masters but you won’t be able to do it concurrently. The only dual specialty offered at Yale is

  2. Yale GEPN 2020

    Ohm108 replied to think34's topic in School, College Programs

    I don't know if you know this but Yale doesn't require pre-reqs to apply but I always recommend that applicants take some STEM classes to be better prepared for the rigors of the program and have a...

  3. Yale GEPN 2020

    Ohm108 replied to think34's topic in School, College Programs

    I never took my pre-reqs in CT but I went to my local community college in my state if that helps. I personally think community colleges are great, affordable, and allows you to fit the classes...

    Ohm108 replied to think34's topic in School, College Programs

    Hi everyone, Congratulations on submitting your applications. The waiting is actually the toughest part of the application process as some of you have mentioned on the threads. Hopefully, all of you...

  5. Yale GEPN 2020

    Ohm108 replied to think34's topic in School, College Programs

    Yes, Yale is a private university so they do not differentiate between in state or out of state tuition. Housing is included in your total cost of attendance which dictates the amount of total...

  6. Yale GEPN 2020

    Ohm108 replied to think34's topic in School, College Programs

    Hi Steve, welcome to the boards. There is graduate student housing available if you are interested. It is a first come, first serve lottery. There is a date in June where Yale Student Housing puts...

  7. GPTPAL Question

    Ohm108 replied to CaneRN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    It is redundant and also confusing since you already have a P for Preterm but then you have another P for Parity. Normally, we take out the parity if you are using GTPAL since as I said before you...

  8. GPTPAL Question

    Ohm108 replied to CaneRN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Parity reflects the number of live births after 20 weeks, not the total number of individual babies born. We also don’t normally combine the two methodologies. Either you use G and Ps or You use...

    Ohm108 replied to adventure_rn's topic in General Nursing

    The smell of a new roll of transpore tape. And the fresh, milky smell of

  10. Yale GEPN 2020

    Ohm108 replied to think34's topic in School, College Programs

    Most direct entry nursing programs with an NP component will require that you pick a specialty prior to joining their program. One of the reasons is logistics, if you had an entire class of...

  11. Yale GEPN 2020

    Ohm108 replied to think34's topic in School, College Programs

  13. WHNP/CNM? Do i need two degrees?

    Ohm108 replied to CRNA2026's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    At the moment, there is no criteria for a CNM to be a DNP. CNM is licensure while DNP is a degree. Licensure and degree are two different things. The required for a CNM at present is for them to...

  14. WHNP/CNM? Do i need two degrees?

    Ohm108 replied to CRNA2026's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    This is a common question amongst future CNMs. Basically, CNMs can do everything a WHNP can do in addition to catching babies so you can be licensed as a CNM and still be able to provide gyn services...

  15. Question about Unfilled NP Program

    Ohm108 replied to mjb6060's topic in School, College Programs

    I think there are many factors that contribute to whether a school reopens their application cycle. The school that I am at decided to attend, extended their application cycle rather than "reopen"...

  16. Abortion education in CNM programs

    Ohm108 replied to Greyiris34's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    I can help point to a few programs that I know about. UCSF in San Francisco just got funding last year to incorporate more abortion training into their program. But someone in that program will...

  18. WIll I hate Ob-gyn nursing?

    Ohm108 replied to Sangrita RN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I’m currently in my OB rotation as well and I also loved it! My first 12 hour clinical just flew by and I can’t wait to go back next week. Clinical is by no means reflective of how it would be...

  19. New Here

    Ohm108 replied to Sumdaymurse's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    If you have a passion and interest in nursing, you will make it work. I left financial services to go into nursing after 10 years. I can honestly tell you that you will worry about money, insurance,...

  21. Can AGNP's work in women's health settings?

    Ohm108 replied to dana16's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    The short answer is that you can. I have a few people in my program that are interested in women’s health but are in the AGPC tract but they plan on focusing on just women’s health upon...

  22. Unvaccinated Boy in Oregon gets Tetanus

    Ohm108 replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, I agree but the only difference I see is that as a minor he doesn't have a choice whether or not he is vaccinated whereas the decisions listed above are made by an individual for themselves and...

  23. Unvaccinated Boy in Oregon gets Tetanus

    Ohm108 replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    There is also the cost component both monetarily and to society as a whole in terms of resources, time, and energy that could have been devoted to someone else. I read a different article about this...

  24. do any NPs wish they did something else

    Ohm108 replied to 8-ball's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    So another perspective. I am still a student and I have never worked in an ICU setting or ever had any intention of doing so. Nor was I interested in working as a ACNP but I do like being in a...
