  1. ACNP in Psych Hospital?

  3. I'm not too worried about finding preceptors for clinicals. I've been working in healthcare a long time so I have a decent amount of contacts. I just got access to Typhon, that is the system they use...
  4. I find it a bit concerning that people look for the "fastest" route to become a healthcare provider. Does decreased quantity equal a quality product? Not saying it does or doesn't but I'd prefer to...
  5. I'm starting the post graduate PMHNP program in the Spring of 2024. The process has been a little long. You first do the graduate application and after everything is submitted it takes weeks to hear...

  9. Hello, I was accepted for the post graduate (I'm already an ACNP) PMHNP program that starts in January 2024. Are you doing the full program or post-grad? I did the background check and drug...
  10. NP Education Idea

    Great questions..... 1. I think that these NP's would have to be "grandfathered" in and in order for this to work you would have to say any NP's who graduate January 2025 of later these rules...
  11. University of Alabama

    No, the only thing I got was an email back Monday of last week from someone in admissions saying that everything would be reviewed by Friday. It is now Friday the following week and I still haven't...

  14. The University of North Alabama FNP

    I was accepted to start in the Post Masters PMHNP program this fall. Still waiting to hear back from the University of Alabama before I register for classes. So far the process isn't too bad...other...

    Does anyone know what type of questions they ask on the online
  16. I would be careful with this. "You know what they call alternative medicine that's been proved to work? - Medicine.” ― Tim Minchin NP's should be practicing evidence or science based...
  17. Does anyone use Anki to study? If so do you know of any good decks that are more suited for NP's? I haven't found many. I did find a new one called AnkiNP (I think you can find it on Instagram as...
  18. Picmonic and nursing books

  21. FNP with 8 wk classes/one at time format

    I don't think you could pay me to do 8 week classes, unless it is for a nursing theory class. Far too much information to learn in an 8 week class for something like
  22. Graceland University NP Spring 2020

    Awesome, I was too. I'll be doing the ACNP program. I have thought about switching to FNP though. Which program are you
  23. I also wonder about an NP in DPC, and how that would work. I am starting an ACNP program soon, but would be willing to switch to FNP if I could work in a DPC
  24. I have my application in for the PMHNP program. They said it takes 4-6 weeks to get a decision once the application is completed. I completed mine about 2 weeks
