  1. We can't eat

    FullGlass replied to vintagegal's topic in General Nursing

    Where are you located? Pay varies widely by location. In California, the RN pay range is $80K to $160K per year or higher. While you wouldn't be able to live in San Jose or Beverly Hills, you...

  2. Leaving outpatient for bedside, feeling guilty?

    FullGlass replied to Mursefirst's topic in General Nursing

    If you have ADHD, why are you not taking medication? I strongly urge you to get proper treatment for your ADHD. That will be very beneficial for your

  3. In need of some advice..

    FullGlass replied to IndecisiveRN97's topic in Nursing Career

    I am going by what you wrote. I am concerned that you may be suffering from depression, which can occur with burnout. That is why I suggested talking to a mental health professional. Yes, I...

  4. In need of some advice..

    FullGlass replied to IndecisiveRN97's topic in Nursing Career

    Reading your post, and some of the answers here, it appears you need to just bite the bullet. You wrote that you were doing well in orientation and were asked to start a normal work schedule, but did...

  5. Should Male Nurse Work In L&D?

    FullGlass replied to Apotheosis's topic in General Nursing

    In general, being a male nurse in L&D should be fine with most patients. There will be come expectant mothers that will not be comfortable with a male nurse for a variety of reasons: religious...

    I have no idea what you are talking about. Your sentence makes no

  7. Discipline/Termination of employment while on probation

    FullGlass replied to Bkmw1989's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I don't know why the board would get involved. It appears your main offense was being insubordinate, which does not seem like something that should be reported to the board. Everyone makes mistakes....

  8. NP Salary/Pay Let's Be Transparent

    FullGlass replied to SurgicalNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I don't see why it is horrible. $115K per year for a new grad isn't bad, depending on the

  9. NP Salary/Pay Let's Be Transparent

    FullGlass replied to SurgicalNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    No, not really. California has been losing some population, except for one group. Nurses are flocking to CA, both RNs and NPs, because of the high pay. Also, for RNs, in Calif they have a union and...

    Congratulations to you! It is wonderful to see stories like

  11. NP school - no RN experience

    FullGlass replied to Karty877's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I am late to this thread. Over the past several years, the debate over whether or not RN work experience should be required for NPs has raged. Should RN experience be required for an NP? The answer...

  12. Advocating for the Integrity of the ARNP

    FullGlass replied to JackStrawRN's topic in Advanced Practice

    Late to this thread. Don't all states require NP licenses to be renewed every few years? In CA it is every 4 years. I would love for all new NP grads to have 1 year residency, but that can't be...

  13. Need advice - what are PMHNPs looking for in a new job?

    FullGlass posted a topic in Advanced Practice

    Hello all, I am a PMHNP in California. I will be assisting with recruiting NPs (PMHNP preferred, not required), and am trying to get a feel for what prospective NP employees are looking for in a...

  14. Can I be forced to take Spanish speaking classes?

    FullGlass replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Career Advice Column

    Glad you were able to clear that up. Speaking Spanish is a huge plus, so if management will let you take the classes, I strongly urge you to do so. Even if you are not fluent, just being able to say...

    FullGlass replied to FullGlass's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I don't know how anyone could come up with a "perfect" system. There are some clear-cut behaviors that are clearly unprofessional/unethical: nurses who post info/pics that violate HIPAA on their...

  17. NP Salary/Pay Let's Be Transparent

    FullGlass replied to SurgicalNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I agree some NPs are being exploited, but not all of them. Honestly, I am paid very well. After 3 years as a PMHNP, I'm making $100 per hour. If I worked FT, that would be $208,000 per year....

    FullGlass replied to FullGlass's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    No, the issue is a question of judgment. This NP demonstrated very poor judgment. As far as morality, sorry, but that is an issue that is pervasive and you can't legislate people from making...

    FullGlass replied to FullGlass's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Has anyone anywhere in this thread discussed this idiot's political platform? No. I said it was foolish for someone to do this if they are running for office. In addition, I said it was...

  20. NP Salary/Pay Let's Be Transparent

    FullGlass replied to SurgicalNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    If NP work was reimbursed at the same rate as MDs, it would be a better case for NPs to demand more pay. NPs are never going to be paid the same as MDs. Period. It's fruitless to pursue

    FullGlass replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Career Advice Column

    Good point. No one is going to become fluent enough to be a certified translator with just 3

  22. NP Salary/Pay Let's Be Transparent

    FullGlass replied to SurgicalNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I understand your argument, but that is just not how compensation tends to work. It's not just "eating what you kill" in most professions, with the exception of sales-type positions. Doctors and...

    FullGlass replied to FullGlass's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Why? We are not discussing politics per se. We are discussing conduct and the dangers of putting one's personal sexual material online, even texting to someone. This goes far beyond politics....

  25. NP Salary/Pay Let's Be Transparent

    FullGlass replied to SurgicalNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I do not agree that NPs are subsidizing MD pay. Where are you getting your information regarding this? The brutal truth is that psychiatrists should be making quite a bit more than PMHNPs....
