United States University (USU) FNP
I just finished my first course, and I felt that It was overwhelming. I work 8-5 and did not feel as if I had enough time to complete all of the required assignments on time and have time for anything else. There are 2 discussion posts per week, you had to respond to 2 classmates on 2 different days on each post and use a scholarly source from the last 5 years (most referenced the book). Each week there were at least 3 chapters to read and based on each reading there was a 10 question quiz (open book) weekly and no way to see the correct answers. On top of all of that, there was an assignment every week and one "signature" assignment with a 2000 word requirement.. I am familiar with a Master's prepared curriculum and I did not feel the same support as I had before.

Homehealth ICD10/Oasis reviewer
Hi Guys, I am considering training in this program. Does anyone know what the future job prospects are? I am currently a HH nurse. I am looking at the Decision Health programs. Most jobs also want you to have experience coding (chicken or the egg). Any advice on getting my foot in the door?

56 and considering NP school
TraumaRUs -My MSN is in Leadership and Management, that hasn't worked out for me too well. I have an extensive clinical background, however, my current situation is in Home health executive management. I enjoy working with geriatrics but do not want to limit my options by doing just the AGNP. I took the 3ps but it does not come near what would be required to practice and I am prepared to repeat them. Thank you everyone, for your encouragement!!

56 and considering NP school
Hi everyone, I have been lurking this forum for a minute. I am considering an FNP school post-MSN certificate. I am 56 and living in Austin, Texas. I have 35years experience and I expect to work into my seventies and working with Housecall Doctors. Anyone know if it would be difficult to find employment or know of anyone having difficulties which they suspect is due to age?. I'm weighing the costs and benefits and appreciate the input.
