    FNP vs ACNP? Please help

    BostonFNP replied to Smccar's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    This is a topic that is more hotly contested by students and prospective NPs than practicing NPs. The truth of the matter in practice is that everything is blurred. In an ideal world it would all be...

    Recommendations for online FNP-30k range

    BostonFNP replied to BirkieGirl's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Could you picture a student applying to medical school saying "well I just don't know how I am going to fit in all those residency hours"? How successful would they

    Good oncology units?

    BostonFNP replied to Daisy90's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    BostonFNP replied to vitiana's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    Simmons, BC, and MGHIHP are all good places to look as they have the best academic/clinical reputation. Don't make a graduate program choice based on the

    The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    BostonFNP replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    I agree that we need to be vigilent about what we put into our bodies, and with every medication/vaccine there is a risk. There is also risk of inaction and not vaccinating. Formaldehyde is a...

    The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    BostonFNP replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    The FDA/CDC are government organizations and the government set-up the VICT so they are accountable. Providers are mandated/required to report all adverse effects. Manufactures are immune from most...

    The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    BostonFNP replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    Putting on a moderator hat for a moment: Ok everyone, let's get back to the topic on hand, which is influenza vaccine. We have veered too far off-course. If someone would like to make a post about...

    The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    BostonFNP replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    There were 34 cases and out of them 6 were reported to be vaccinated. You just demonstrated how herd immunity works! Imagine that. Vaccination stopped a pandemic spread. One case of mealses will...

    The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    BostonFNP replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    You might think that but it doesn't make it true. I know you are a self-thought expert on all these topics because you "just know" and you "read it" but there have been hundreds of studies on...

    Prescribers vs Providers

    BostonFNP replied to Mavrick's topic in Advanced Practice

    What do NPs provide to who? To patients, access to quality and cost effective health care. To themselves, the chance to take the next step, write the orders, make the diagnosis, lift the ceiling off...

    Does everybody want to be a NP?

    BostonFNP replied to Cola89's topic in General Nursing

    The irony is that as one of the most lucrative medical specialities they strictly limit supply but because NPs are revenue generators, derm physicians love to hire them. Win win for the money

    The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    BostonFNP replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    This is the very definition of pseudoscience. You had a belief and you searched out support for your belief. It is the exact opposite of the scientific process and rational thought. A scientific or...

    Does everybody want to be a NP?

    BostonFNP replied to Cola89's topic in General Nursing

    The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    BostonFNP replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    Difficulty of NP education

    BostonFNP replied to studentFNP16's topic in Advanced Practice
