    Online PMHNP school programs

    Have you tried Brandman University (offers a DNP in psych), and Charles Drew (PMHNP). I believe you meet a few times in the semester but it's mostly

    @eve21 It's not too easy to get in because the program is impacted. They do have a point system: https://www.rcc.edu/departments/schoolofnursing/Documents/Enrollment/RN ADN Info Sheet update...

    LPN program in NY

    If you're going to bridge eventually, why not go into the ADN program right away? There are other ways to make money such as CNA, EMT, etc. I for one, was a CNA before I became an RN. At the time, I...

    Would you do ADN or LPN then LPN Bridge?

    Go straight into the ADN/RN if you can. You're saving time and money if you do the RN straight away. There's no guarantee that you will get into a bridge program and if you do, there is no guarantee...

    LPN program

    If your plan is to become an RN, then go to an ADN program right away. Bridging is more time and money spent. There is also no guarantee that you will find a bridge program in a timely manner. In the...

    Thieves! Stealing Supplies During COVID-19 Crisis

    This hurts. People are acting so selfish. No baby wipes, no diapers, no baby food, no toilet paper, no hand sanitizer, no paper towels, no water. It's not the apocalypse. People have so much while...

    First Semester Nursing School - Tips??

    You can read an entire chapter and still fail if you don't know the rationale behind a process. Don't memorize- you're past anatomy and physiology. Time management is important. If you're studying...

    ADN or BSN??? I’m confused.

    This depends on you. Ultimately, earning a BSN should be your goal. Community college will most likely cost less, and if you eventually go on to earn your BSN by going to a RN-BSN program (one that is...

    PMHNP Vs. Psychiatry MD

    You could get a doctorate and have a DNP. If you're willing to devote 8+ years to become an MD, I guess you could go for it. I don't know your situation and I can't say how realistic it is to tell you...
  14. This offense culture may very well kill us. If what this post states is accurate, then where is the racism? In parts of the world, food preparation is not regulated- this is just a fact. You could...

    Alternative RN jobs?? KY

    Would moving to a different area be an option? Also, consider getting the DNP (it's a doctorate which I hear will replace the NP- which is a masters degree). Also, consider psychiatry. It pays more...

    Alternative RN jobs?? KY

    Have you considered becoming a nurse practitioner? It's more paper work than it is patient care. You act in the role of a provider. You can prescribe medications to patients etc. You're still a nurse...

    Any ex Premeds?

    Have you looked into medical schools in the Caribbean? SGU? Ross? I don't know how easy it is to get residency in the states. I know someone who went to one of the Caribbean schools that's why I

    What do you eat during your shifts?

    You can learn to cook simple meals; YouTube is a great resource. Also, you can cook on your days off and prep for the days you'd be at work so you're not doing it right before work. You can also buy...

    Getting the job

    Hello all. I have been an RN for a year and a half and I have been working in mental health. Recently, I have been thinking of getting a part time job at a SNF/nursing home. How do I stand out in an...

    What to do about DNP and flu shot?

    Why sign up for a career where you will be serving people that require medical attention - with some even being immunocompromised - and not be willing to receive a flu shot (to the extent that you are...

    CNA TO RN

    Like most have said, do get your CNA. I recommend a private one because some are only four weeks long as opposed to the semester long programs at a community college. Please get into school as soon as...

    Dismissed from a Nursing Program (Need Advice)

    As someone commented previously, it is a good idea to get your CNA certificate. You may be able to bypass going to CNA school as you have a semester of nursing school. Getting your CNA allows you to...

    Witchcraft Resurgence

    Ethical Question

    While I agree that it was inappropriate, I don't believe every inappropriate action warrants reporting. If it was an extreme instance of recording patients and uploading it on a website, then yes...
