  1. Another "Thrown to The Wolves" Preceptor Search

    bryanleo9 replied to naptimeRN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Please tell me what these schools clinical coordinators do because they sure don't land preceptors or clinical

  2. Disappointment in NP Program

    bryanleo9 replied to naptimeRN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Schools aren't taking the initiative seriously. I have called over 6 which all said students need to find their own preceptors. Both brick and mortar and online. When I mentioned the initiative...

  4. LTC nurses: Can I hear from you, please?

    bryanleo9 replied to 37changes's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    What a great thread. Good luck wherever you end up. Nursing homes vary so much but it sounds like this is a nice one. I would have loved 12 hour shifts when I worked

  5. New grad @ LTC/SNF/Rehab Facility. Hating it

    bryanleo9 replied to FromMNtoCA's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I would probably still be in LTC if I had only 25 residents or so. I had 46 on the 2 - 10pm shift. It was hell and should have been illegal. I ran away and never looked back. If you feel it's a...

  7. Another "Thrown to The Wolves" Preceptor Search

    bryanleo9 replied to naptimeRN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Another thing is consider committing. I drove 2 hours away to finish my BSN every Friday for 3.5 years. It was totally worth it and would do the same to advance my education in the future. Look at...

  8. Another "Thrown to The Wolves" Preceptor Search

    bryanleo9 replied to naptimeRN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    As far as advise, I would definitely show up the the clinics in person. Have a nice letter that explains your program and what your objective is ( to find a quality preceptor). And as stated above,...

  9. Another "Thrown to The Wolves" Preceptor Search

    bryanleo9 replied to naptimeRN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I hope it works out for you. The Sawyer Initiative that passsed recently gave us some hope of the schools finding clinical placement. Reality is I have called four different universities and all of...

  15. Seeking advice of correctional nurses

    bryanleo9 replied to AnonymousDeleted's topic in Correctional

    In California, you won't know what crimes the inmates have committed as this information is not in the electric medical records system. I don't want to know and I treat everyone the same. Respect...

  16. What should I expect as a new NP student

    bryanleo9 replied to WalterWho's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    We all have 24 hours in a day. What we do in that time is key. Wife, kids, hobbies etc can all be balanced with proper planning. If you are determined, you can get it done like the tens of...

  17. Any graduate or current student @ Univ of Phoenix MS FNP program

    bryanleo9 replied to aiker31's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I contacted UoP recently and specifically asked if they would help students find preceptors after 2019 (per new accreditation guidelines). The enrollment advisor flat out told me no...it's the...

  18. Walden University Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner

    bryanleo9 replied to JustSN1219's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I have questions here as well. 1. Any official word from Walden regarding finding clinical preceptors in 2019 and beyond? Did any students have to drop out because they couldn't find a preceptor. I...

  19. FNP vs psych NP

    bryanleo9 replied to krisgo88's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    With your background definitely consider psych NP. Our backgrounds are very similar and I am heading back to school maybe next year. Also, search your area for all np jobs. In northern California...

    bryanleo9 replied to NewKidOnTheFloor's topic in Nursing Career

    From my experience as a student in med surg, the staff RN's that were "fast" were the ones thst skipped doing vital signs and did rushed inadequate assessments. Stethoscope on the chest and back for...

  22. Drowning on the floor...only 2 months in. HELP!

    bryanleo9 replied to NewKidOnTheFloor's topic in Nursing Career

    Med surg units are packed with patients with one foot in the ICU already. 10 to 1 is a joke. You will burn yourself out like I

  23. Drowning on the floor...only 2 months in. HELP!

    bryanleo9 replied to NewKidOnTheFloor's topic in Nursing Career

    Run, don't walk, away from dangerous situations. It's your license on the line when something bad happens. I was in a situation like you before as I had 48 patients as a new grad LVN in a nursing...

    bryanleo9 replied to JustSN1219's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    bryanleo9 replied to JustSN1219's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner
