  1. Huge Zoom Mistake....Nurse Instructors Caught!

    PaulL replied to Pre.Nurse_tobe's topic in General Nursing

    This behavior is completely unacceptable and unprofessional. The students should contact the dean, ethics committee, and other resources available to them within the school. Hopefully, the school will...

  2. How to Respond When Family Blames You for Patient Dying

    PaulL replied to CaliRN2019's topic in General Nursing

    While it is quite emotionally taxing to be berated by family members, people will grieve in their own ways. However, there is no reason for you to be subjected to threats or overly aggravated...

    PaulL replied to amc248's topic in Advanced Practice

    Feelings of anxiety and insecurity in your decisions are NORMAL when taking on a new role with this much autonomy! Utilize the resources available to you and ASK when you have questions. Learning is a...

  4. How did you decide?

    PaulL replied to JustAnotherNursemaybe's topic in Advanced Practice

    While I'm not an NP or even an RN, I think this problem will continue to be widespread due to nursing schools actively recruiting those without any experience in healthcare, RN or otherwise into...

  5. Full vs Reduced vs Restricted Scope of Practice- Do you feel it?

    PaulL replied to Myec's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Super interesting that you want to do something like this. I feel extending care into medically underserved areas/populations is one of the primary benefits of allowing independent practice for

  6. Best RN Clinical Experience for Acute Care NP?

    PaulL replied to BiscuitStripes's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I think Juan makes a great point in that you should keep an eye on jobs that are available, and in a specialty similar to that you would want to practice in. Obviously working as a NICU would give you...

  7. Best nursing background for FNP?

    PaulL replied to Juliet BSN RN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    You should change this attitude, all the best positions will come to those who pursue it aggressively. Call around or find out who the hiring reps are on linkedin and ask about the positions you're...

    PaulL replied to eg96's topic in School, College Programs

    Sounds like Yale would be the ideal program if it pans out, however Fairfield and Columbia are both great options to

  9. MDE Columbia University 2021

    PaulL replied to eg96's topic in School, College Programs

    I was accepted this round! If you didn't get in yet, KEEP AT IT. I was waitlisted and unfortunately never accepted last year, but made it this year! Stats for those interested;...

    PaulL replied to FutureRN2FNP's topic in School, College Programs

    Did anyone from the waitlist ever hear back or did they just not take anyone from the waitlist this

  12. Direct Entry MSN 2020 at Columbia University

    PaulL replied to FutureRN2FNP's topic in School, College Programs

    As in they’re not taking people from the list or just they haven’t made any progress with sorting

  13. Direct Entry MSN 2020 at Columbia University

    PaulL replied to FutureRN2FNP's topic in School, College Programs

    Figured Id post the email for those of you who did not receive it. I'm not quite sure if this is applicable to anyone as many of us are quite a ways through the required prerequisites that we would...

  15. Direct Entry MSN 2020 at Columbia University

    PaulL replied to FutureRN2FNP's topic in School, College Programs

    Any of you fellow waitlisters get any news? NYC is pretty much shut down right now so I’d assume most of the staff isn’t in the office if no one has heard

  16. Direct Entry MSN 2020 at Columbia University

    PaulL replied to FutureRN2FNP's topic in School, College Programs

    I’ve been living in NY for almost 2 years now and commute from Brooklyn to Columbia for work without issue. Between insurance and car payments if you’re still paying on it, you’re probably...

  17. Direct Entry MSN 2020 at Columbia University

    PaulL replied to FutureRN2FNP's topic in School, College Programs

    If youre thinking about bringing your car, Washington Heights doesn't really have the best reputation as far as neighborhoods go in NYC. NYC street parking can also be kind of a pain, so make sure you...
