  1. Wilkes postgraduate PMHNP program fall 2020

    FNPDreams replied to ToFNPandBeyond's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    For Lisa above… program was OK. Honestly I don’t think what you learn in these programs allows you to feel competent managing serious mental illness. Once you graduate, you definitely need a...

  2. Wilkes postgraduate PMHNP program fall 2020

    FNPDreams replied to ToFNPandBeyond's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Finished last Summer. Had to find my own preceptor…sat out one semester because couldn’t find child/adolescent preceptor. I don’t know how this current program is working as we were not part of...

    FNPDreams replied to ToFNPandBeyond's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I am pretty sure the Covid grants are for students in a certain income category who were enrolled in degree programs. I want to say undergrads too. I don’t think I would qualify. There is a new...

  4. Wilkes postgraduate PMHNP program fall 2020

    FNPDreams replied to ToFNPandBeyond's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Thanks! ? I am in my second to last semester in Fall. I hope I can continue. Usually in a program like this financial aide is just Federal Loans. I was going to try and cover it myself. I will ask....

  5. Wilkes postgraduate PMHNP program fall 2020

    FNPDreams replied to ToFNPandBeyond's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Honestly that’s just even more upsetting because I tried to tell them that I thought they were incorrect since other schools were doing it but they were adamant that the program didn’t qualify....

  6. Wilkes postgraduate PMHNP program fall 2020

    FNPDreams replied to ToFNPandBeyond's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Hi Dayzee NP, I believe you are correct about the residency. There is no on campus requirement. As far as preceptors, that is not true. They provide NO assistance at the moment and will not for the...

    FNPDreams replied to ToFNPandBeyond's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    The letter we received to prepare us for rotations states Telehealth is not an acceptable clinical site. So I do not believe we are allowed to

    FNPDreams replied to ToFNPandBeyond's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Hi there. Sorry I haven’t had a chance to comment. I asked our current contact person about this. She said this is a “new” program although the content is the same. I am a little upset because...

  9. Looking for post masters PMHNP program ASAP

    FNPDreams replied to stillearnin's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I am in Wilkes. I am in post grad program. Program seems fine but I’ve only taken Psychopharmacology. I am having problems finding a preceptor though which I need by

  10. Wilkes university pmhnp fall 2019

    FNPDreams replied to futurenaijaRN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Yes they are proctored @ $15 each. It is through RPNow. Was a bit confusing to figure out how it interfaces with their online delivery system L.I.V.E but I finally figured it

  12. Wilkes postgraduate PMHNP program fall 2020

    FNPDreams replied to ToFNPandBeyond's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    It is entirely possible that they are redesigning the program and in fact are offering this to new students. Is it fair? Not really, but as I mentioned, my prior FNP program charged us a fee for each...

  13. Wilkes postgraduate PMHNP program fall 2020

    FNPDreams replied to ToFNPandBeyond's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Just to confirm that this is the post graduate PMHNP program Wilkes offers? As far as I know no one has offered to find me a preceptor. They actually told us if we need to defer until the Spring...

  14. Wilkes postgraduate PMHNP program fall 2020

    FNPDreams replied to ToFNPandBeyond's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Hi! WOW! really?! They are not doing anything for those of us already enrolled in the program. I’m knocking my head against the wall trying to find someone!! I wish they would help us too! I would...

    FNPDreams replied to ToFNPandBeyond's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    You do what you have to. If you start early...keep good notes on who you contacted and when etc...hopefully you will be OK. I have heard people say they go in person which unfortunately is not an...

  16. Wilkes postgraduate PMHNP program fall 2020

    FNPDreams replied to ToFNPandBeyond's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I cannot speak to that. Did not need to do this in my previous program and even though my school said they do this (paid preceptor $500!), I still had to do legwork to find them. Honestly, with the...

  17. Wilkes postgraduate PMHNP program fall 2020

    FNPDreams replied to ToFNPandBeyond's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Good & Bad...more competition for the already slim pickings in preceptors. I feel strongly that schools should be responsible for this. I thought there were guidelines to make this mandatory for...

  18. Wilkes postgraduate PMHNP program fall 2020

    FNPDreams replied to ToFNPandBeyond's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    You too! Also ANCC I think allows teaching hours to apply for recert. Both will allow some portion of preceptor work to apply for recert as well. Don’t quote me because my FNP cert is thru AANP....

    FNPDreams replied to ToFNPandBeyond's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I was not required to take other classes this semester due to my former coursework so cannot speak to that part. Yes. Weekly DB - 1 main post & minimum 1 response (I always did at least 2). 3...

  20. Wilkes postgraduate PMHNP program fall 2020

    FNPDreams replied to ToFNPandBeyond's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Might get bigger bang for your buck to get DNP as that opens the door for teaching & there is a lack of educators and preceptors in pmhnp at the moment. One thing to keep in mind for dual...

    Good luck to you! Almost my entire psychopharmacology class were NPs except 1. You have more info than I

  22. Wilkes postgraduate PMHNP program fall 2020

    FNPDreams replied to ToFNPandBeyond's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Sorry...I’m trying to get the hang of how to properly reply on this!! You definitely have an advantage. I believe FNPs & CNS are acceptable to Wilkes if they have been in psych for @ least 5...

    FNPDreams replied to ToFNPandBeyond's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    For NPinthefuture...it is different if you are coming from another MSN. I did that too. I was MSN med/surg Clinical Specialty before I did post MSN for FNP, but from some time back when Roles etc was...
