  1. Excellent Employment Prospects for Nurse Practitioners

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

    Whether or not you used autocorrect, the statement did not make sense in English. I do not understand why you feel compelled to attack me. You recently obtained your NP and got a good job. I,...

  2. Excellent Employment Prospects for Nurse Practitioners

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

    You start your comment with"I won't commuter I someone thinking their own projections are somehow superior to federal government estimates." That statement makes no sense in English. Your view of...

  3. Excellent Employment Prospects for Nurse Practitioners

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

    The big if in your statement is by 2024 "at current rates." A lot can happen by 2024. I don't think that underserved areas will go away by 2024 and surplus of NPs does not mean they will be...

  4. Excellent Employment Prospects for Nurse Practitioners

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

    Respectfully, I disagree. If we are concerned about the quality of NPs, then we do not want to limit the supply of NPs. By limiting supply, that sets up a situation where all NPs get hired,...

  5. Excellent Employment Prospects for Nurse Practitioners

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

    I see no point in discouraging good NP candidates or in discouraging current NP students. The best will get good jobs. Obviously, demand for NPs and pay varies by location. It is up to NP students...

  6. Excellent Employment Prospects for Nurse Practitioners

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

    I believe you recently posted that you had no trouble finding a good NP job. So I'm not sure why you want to promulgate negativity. With regard to IT, you are incorrect. I was in high tech until...

  7. Excellent Employment Prospects for Nurse Practitioners

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

    I am tired of the negativity on this forum. I don't share this view and I also want to encourage good NP candidates. There is indeed a maldistribution of all primary care providers, as your source...

  8. Jobless FNP

    FullGlass replied to Nicola301975's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Very well, thank you. It's hard and scary, and I worry about ever learning everything I need to know, but my feedback has been

  9. Med school to NP

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

    Also, I wanted to add that there are nurse practitioner residency programs. Not enough, but the number is slowly rising. In addition, as a new grad, make sure you choose an employer with a good...

  10. Med school to NP

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

    I'm so sorry for your troubles. It is good that you are now doing better. Being an MD is not for everyone. Many NPs could have gone to med school but chose the nurse practitioner route instead. A...

  11. Jobless FNP

    FullGlass replied to Nicola301975's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Trolling? Why? I gave specific tips for success in job hunting. You provided a lot of negativity and standard pablum like networking. I think you are angry because I am a positive person and my...

  12. Jobless FNP

    FullGlass replied to Nicola301975's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    If someone wants a job, and they can't get a job where they are, they must move. That's what people in all professions do. My offers were not all in rural areas, either. They included cities of...

  13. HS student with odor, call nurse?

    FullGlass replied to guest83140's topic in School

    In most countries in the world, people do not bathe or shower every day. Recent evidence suggests daily showering is not necessary. Our bodies have a normal and natural microbiota which protects us....

  14. Jobless FNP

    FullGlass replied to Nicola301975's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    With all due respect, you are incorrect. There is a great job market for new grad NPs, depending on the location. I'm a new grad NP and I got NINE job offers! But I was willing to go where the jobs...

  15. What is your salary as an NP?

    FullGlass replied to niwas209's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    New grad Adult and Geri Primary Care NP in rural (very affordable) California. Total first year compensation $125K includes salary, bonus and option to work just 3 extra half days a year. Rotating...

  16. HS student with odor, call nurse?

    FullGlass replied to guest83140's topic in School

    There are a variety of reasons a high school student can have an odor. Poor hygiene is one of them, and it would be within a nurse's purview to have a discussion about this with the student. Having...

  17. International student holding a BSN from a prestigious school in the US

    FullGlass replied to fna977's topic in Nursing Career

    Yes, it does matter, as other RN hiring managers on this forum have stated. New grad RNs are evaluated on their school and their grades. It's not important for an experienced RN. This is true in...

  18. CA RN license by endorsement

    FullGlass replied to MommyRN89's topic in California Nursing

    The California BON states paper applications may take longer to process. Perhaps you can get someone to help you with the online process. Good

  19. Looking to start in sub-specialty

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

    I think people are getting frustrated with you because you are being extremely picky for a new grad NP. I don't know your financial situation, most but most new grads need to get a job ASAP. So you...

  20. Looking to start in sub-specialty

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

    Based on previous posts on this forum, there are FNPs who get hired by EDs. So if you can't find an employer in your area, then move to an area where you can get an ED job. I don't understand what is...

  21. clinical sites

    FullGlass replied to 8-ball's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Call the NP schools you are interested in, talk to an actual human being, and ask about clinical site

  22. Looking to start in sub-specialty

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

    How long do you want to be unemployed? As a new grad, you are not in a position to be super picky. Go get some solid FNP experience for one year, then apply to

  23. International student holding a BSN from a prestigious school in the US

    FullGlass replied to fna977's topic in Nursing Career

    Ignore all the negativity. One of my classmates at Johns Hopkins nursing school is also from China. She lived in China her whole life and went to Univ of Kentucky for her BSN and then worked in the...

  24. San Francisco Living as an RN?

    FullGlass replied to didi22's topic in Nursing Career

    You don't have to live out of you vehicle in order to pay off student loans. When evaluating job compensation, one must consider cost of living. Making $125K a year in SF is not going to provide a...

  25. Can AGNP's do prenatal/post natal care?

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

    At least in California, the laws are not clear on this. Yes, AGNPs care for adults from adolescent through elderly. I didn't receive any education or training beyond basic prenatal (pregnancy test,...
