  1. Possible HIPAA issue?

    Through Microsoft Outlook. The EMR isn't great, so there is no way to send messages through that. The wife thing is weird, so I'm just ignoring that and see what happens. I'm also going to...
  2. Travel RN to New FNP - Is it worth it?

    You have to decide what is more important to you: short term $ or long term career prospects, plus a job you will like better. Do some research on FNP earnings in Texas for experienced NPs, so...
  3. Justifying the cost of an Ivy League Nursing Education

    You are largely correct. However, there are many individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds that truly believe they could never get into, or afford, a top-tier university. I read an interesting...

    I do not know why everyone latched on to Yale. I did my initial undergrad at Yale, majoring in East Asian Studies. After a successful business career, I then attended Johns Hopkins School of...
  9. Justifying the cost of an Ivy League Nursing Education

    I was not discussing SOCIAL issues. I was discussing schools that do not provide good support to their students. At many nursing schools, if a student flunks one class they are simply kicked out of...
  10. Justifying the cost of an Ivy League Nursing Education

    You seem very angry and I don't know why. All I am saying is that don't assume students going to big-name schools all come from wonderful privileged backgrounds. That is not true of all of them....

    Thank you for your response. While there are a mix of program graduates noted on the Nurse Corps site, it is a competitive process. The odds of getting this scholarship are higher from better...

  13. Considering becoming an APRN

    I just want to note that FNPs and AGPCNPs can make excellent money, but you must be willing to move if you live in a part of the country that pays crappy. I just saw a want ad for an NP to...
  14. Yes. While some other responders say different, there are a lot of remote telepsych jobs available now. 1. You must be certified via the national PMNP exam 2. You must have a valid RN...
  15. You just need to have a valid state license for the states you serve via telehealth. It doesn't matter where you are physically located. However, you will have to consider time zone
  16. Considering becoming an APRN

    I totally agree on a fast track for NPs to become MDs. It would also be a great way to get more primary care MDs. In Europe, becoming an MD is faster than here. MDs can do 3 years undergrad,...
  17. Considering becoming an APRN

    I was thinking about this some more. Another reason that MDs make more $ is that they do practice good quality control and NPs do not, in terms of who enters the profession. Medical school is...

  21. Considering becoming an APRN

    I think NP pay varies a lot by location and speciality. As a new grad NP, I worked in a rural area in California and made $125K my first year. After 1.5 years, I was being offered primary care jobs...

    Sorry you are feeling burned out. Would it be possible for you to take a sabbatical? Some time off to recharge might help. I have seen some job ads for PMHNPs to work remotely focusing on one...
  23. Confused about choosing NP specialty

    In choosing a specialty, be clear on whether or not you want to work in a hospital. If you want to work in a hospital, then the specialties to choose are Acute Care Adult NP or Acute Care Peds...
  24. Considering becoming an APRN

    I don't know if most RNs who become NPs do so for the wrong reasons, but I agree that many do. However, that is a very different perspective than there is going to be some huge crash in demand for...
  25. Considering becoming an APRN

    I don't believe that there is going to be some crash in the NP market. That is ridiculous. Are people suddenly not going to need healthcare? This is why there will be a good demand for...
