  1. Post Grad PMHNP Certificate program

    NurseSugar replied to Mednerd's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I'm at Old Dominion. 12 months. 11k. Totally hate it. It's all tests. Hard tests. Highest score on the last one was an 80. Everyone is in danger of failing and stressed. I've also seen U of...

  2. Kentucky Christian university

    NurseSugar replied to Kklimited's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Katrina, how is the program going? I have all the classwork in and about 240 clinical hours. I'm in Carmel, IN just north of Indianapolis. So here's some more things I learned that are good...

  3. Schools That Provide Preceptors

    NurseSugar replied to beeker's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Well that is lucky for you. KCU does not allow preceptors to have more than two students total and you have to be the only one your days with the practitioner. I can’t speak for if other programs do...

  4. Kentucky Christian university

    NurseSugar replied to Kklimited's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Finding preceptors is a huge issue... they have a lecture about obtaining preceptors... then if you say you can’t they will start looking for you. I’ve called about 50 so far and haven’t had...

  5. Schools That Provide Preceptors

    NurseSugar replied to beeker's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    For all of her clinicals? When I talked to them, students had to find the first 60 hour primary care section. The rest the school set up. With so many practices continuing to say they aren’t taking...

  6. Schools That Provide Preceptors

    NurseSugar replied to beeker's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Are you talking for NP programs? Yes they exist. Texas Women’s (men can go too!), Carson Newman, and Walsh University secure your sites for you. Kentucky Christian wants you to try to get preceptors...

  7. Kentucky Christian university

    NurseSugar replied to Kklimited's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Hi Katrina Yes, In couple weeks I will be halfway done with the course work. One more half and then Clinicals. I think it’s a good program! The format for classes works well for my schedule....

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

    NurseSugar posted a topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I am looking at schools for FNP but think I would do better with a one class at time schedule. I'm a single mom with full custody and have to work full-time. So far I've found American Sentinal and...

  9. Texas Woman's Online FNP Program

    NurseSugar replied to caity0218's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I live in Indianapolis so the on campus requirement means airfare. I selected KCU. They aren’t as well known but their format is one class at a time which I personally like even though the classes...

  10. Texas Woman's Online FNP Program

    NurseSugar replied to caity0218's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Call and talk to them! I ended up accepting a different spot but they were in my top 3. They said about 10 to 15 hours of course work a week which is manageable. There is one 3 day on campus intensive...

  11. Sterilize and Reuse Mask

    NurseSugar posted a topic in Disaster Preparation

    My employer is handing out isolation masks (the yellow tie ones) at the beginning of our shift and collecting them at the end to "be sterilized and reused". We are being told that is being done...

  12. Sterilize and Reuse Mask

    NurseSugar replied to NurseSugar's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Again, this is not N95s. LOL "kleenex with strings" xD ... apparently isolation masks are still preferred over the cloth mask, so they must have some sort of micron permeability rating. I wonder what...

  13. Kentucky Christian university

    NurseSugar replied to Kklimited's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I spent quite a while on the phone with the dean of the nursing school at KCU yesterday discussing the FNP program. After a lot of research And speaking with several schools, I’ve applied here as my...

  14. UWF FNP Fall 2018

    NurseSugar replied to hdrn90's topic in School, College Programs

    @hdrn90 @PBJBanana88 How has this program been for you? Is it 8 week format? Papers and tests? Would love some insight into your experience and if you think its manageable working

  15. School with new program but finds preceptor? Or established program that doesn't.

    NurseSugar replied to Nurse Magnolia's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Are both the programs nationally and regionally accredited? If its a new program I would make sure of that. The only programs I found that connect you with preceptors are Newman Carson and WTU, and a...

  16. Texas Woman's Online FNP Program

    NurseSugar replied to caity0218's topic in Online Distance Learning

    There seem to be a lot of posts about the on-campus program... But I haven't seen any for the online version. I am waiting to talk to an advisor but I think I will apply here. If the classes are 13...

  17. ETSU experiences and reviews?

    NurseSugar replied to GCM19's topic in School, College Programs

    @GCM19Did you end up in this program? I am looking at them now and am hoping for some insight! Their deadline is next week so if I want to apply, I better get the essay etc together

  18. FNP

    NurseSugar replied to sandyn's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    @ArmyRN79 how do you like it so far? I'm thinking about them for the same reason, although want to confirm they find people local not two hours away. Can you manage while working
