  1. New to nursing career

    FullGlass replied to Nica Ramy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I suggest the OP simply contact the schools she is interested in and ask to speak to Admissions for more information on the best route. If speed is the most important factor for her, then that will...

  2. Working full time

    FullGlass replied to DeputyNurse's topic in General Students

    Thank you for your service as a police officer. It is very hard to work FT and go to school FT, especially nursing school. Does your nursing school have a PT option? If so, go for that....

  3. Nursing Schools COVID Vaccine Requirements

    FullGlass replied to Jennifer S.P.'s topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    While GA may be more lenient in this regard, it is not common. My honest advice is that a person that does not want to get vaccinated should not choose a healthcare career. This isn't a judgment...

  4. New to nursing career

    FullGlass replied to Nica Ramy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You have multiple options for becoming an NP. Cheapest - go to community college to earn ADN RN. Then you can do a bridge program to earn your BSN or MSN. Fastest - get an ABSN RN, which...

  5. New to nursing career

    FullGlass replied to Nica Ramy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    NPs do not perform bedside care. The PA and NP role is almost identical. PAs used to be more common in hospitals, while the vast majority of NPs work in primary (outpatient) care. It is...

  7. New to nursing career

    FullGlass replied to Nica Ramy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes, there are direct-entry MSN programs, but that is to obtain an RN. You must obtain an RN license first, then you can apply to NP programs. If you earn an MSN, then you would likely go to a DNP...

  8. Sexism in Advanced Practice?

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

    You continue to put words in my mouth that I never said. From your defensiveness, it appears that you are insecure about being an RN, and I am very sorry for that. Best wishes to

  9. Sexism in Advanced Practice?

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

    I am sorry that you feel RNs are "just plebes." I do not understand how you are able to know and comment on the lived experience of other people, including

  10. Sexism in Advanced Practice?

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

    You are being overly sensitive and you also did not read the original question closely. Here is the original question: "I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced sexism in the workplace as an NP,...

  11. Sexism in Advanced Practice?

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

    Did I say that? No, I did not. I correctly pointed out that the question was for Advanced Practice Nurses, not for RNs. I would not answer a questions directed at RNs, as I am not an RN. I think...

  12. Sexism in Advanced Practice?

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

    I'm sorry you went through this, but the question was about sexism in Advanced Practice, not for RNs. I think pretty much every woman that worked in the 20th century experienced sexism. Sexism has...

  13. How to change specialties as an FNP?

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

    Most primary care providers do a fair amount of basic mental health. In fact, primary care providers are the #1 source of mental health care, as they are qualified to treat basic depression, anxiety,...

  14. How to change specialties as an FNP?

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

    FNPs are not educated or trained to work in an acute-care setting. Yes, some hospitals will hire them, but they shouldn't. This is a huge liability risk. NPs should practice within the scope of...

  15. Bill introduced to allow AI to prescribe medications

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

    I saw them advertising on TV and was wondering about that. Thanks for the link - I want to check it out. The legality seems

  16. Bill introduced to allow AI to prescribe medications

    FullGlass posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Personally, I find this very disturbing: "Artificial intelligence (AI) could be used to prescribe medications to patients -- if a new bill makes its way through Congress. The proposed...

  17. How to change specialties as an FNP?

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

    Start applying for jobs in other specialties. Think about what experience you have as an FNP that is related to other specialties. For example, if you have treated a lot of patients with acute...

  18. Bill introduced to allow AI to prescribe medications

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

    I agree. Hopefully this bill will be squashed. AI is in no way ready for this type of work. They still haven't been able to produce a truly safe self-driving car! Yet this idiot in Congress thinks...

  19. Sexism in Advanced Practice?

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

    Me too. Clinics and practices have M.A.s and administrative staff. So I have no idea what kind of secretarial work the OP is referring to. Larger clinics may also employ LVNs and RNs. The OP...

  20. Sexism in Advanced Practice?

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

    I've never faced sexism as an NP. Most NPs are women. I worked in primary care and at that position had a female CMO. No sexism experienced there. Now I work in outpatient mental health and no...

  21. Can I still go to nursing school with an academic dishonesty charge?

    FullGlass replied to anonymoussss's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I just want to clarify. When you request that a copy of your transcript be sent to another school, you also have the option to request a copy of your transcript be sent to yourself. So request a...

  22. Remote or no!

    FullGlass replied to BsnBull's topic in Government, Military

    I don't think the VA is going away anytime soon. For one thing, as most of us know, the private healthcare system is already overburdened, with primary care patients having to wait months for an...

    FullGlass replied to trailrunningmama's topic in School, College Programs

    Call Admissions and find out if you can just submit your application with the Sac City equivalency form. They should also be able to tell you if they will accept the Sierra College
