  1. How to educate spouse about what I do as an NP?

    Guest1144461 replied to deliverator's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I think there are more problems here than just telling your wife about work. I run into the same/similar issues and my gf is an RN. Just don't talk about it, she won't understand

  2. Are there many jobs RNs can do that do not involve direct patient contact?

    Guest1144461 replied to Kara638's topic in General Students

    Sounds like the $$$ interests you to me. Two highest paid nursing gigs. Mental health escapades will drain you far more than those scary viruses in the hospital. Those tele health jobs are going...

  3. FNP or AGACNP?

    Guest1144461 replied to nursern828's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Sounds like ACNP. Do a residency/fellowship. You might have to move, just accept

  4. NP Specialty Advice?! Which do I choose?!

    Guest1144461 replied to Allivernoche's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I am an ACNP, I have no idea how to do primary care so obviously I don't venture there. FNPs are basically not hired in hospitals anymore unless you have a ton of NP inpatient experience. RN...

  5. Doctors limit doctors; First do no harm?

    Guest1144461 replied to Guest 1152923's topic in General Nursing

    ANA and AMA both lobby hardcore. As an APP ( we don't say mid-level) I will say that yes many MDs out there are trying to snipe our squash our role as much as possible. A lot of it behind our...

  8. AGACNP- new grad- starting in hospice?

    Guest1144461 replied to NPJenn44's topic in Advanced Practice

    You are going to probably pigeon hole yourself if you stay in the gig too

  9. Perhaps a silly question..

    Guest1144461 replied to macsmith777's topic in Advanced Practice

    No, that's outside your scope. I work internal medicine and besides acute antipsychotics inpatient and stable SSRIs, I don't treat into the psych realm. Make

  10. Family Angry About ER Transfer

    Guest1144461 replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

  11. Short Staffed: An Epidemic

    Guest1144461 replied to KellyM RN's topic in General Nursing

    Yup I am sure you don't cherry pick those precious 4 shifts months too. Nope not at all. Oh noes, the point and click dreaded nursing "education and certifications". How awful. Yes Ctrl-P CNE and...

  12. Short Staffed: An Epidemic

    Guest1144461 replied to KellyM RN's topic in General Nursing

    No I will not, every RN job I had had rusty entitled per diems who would never come in when needed (literally the whole point of per diems) and complained all night about their assignment. Also...

  14. Fast-Food Ads Target Minority Youth

    Guest1144461 replied to J.Adderton's topic in General Nursing

    Yes yes, the US Army where the majority of combat troops and deaths are disproportionately poor and white. Also ways trying to bring down the minorities though yeah? But yes believe your...

  15. Unsatisfied Patient

    Guest1144461 replied to summertx's topic in General Nursing

    To be fair as long time nurse to NP, I am sure the doctors are aware of skin wounds but updating assessments is fraught with copy and paste errors. I thought nursing documentation was tedious, but a...

  16. Short Staffed: An Epidemic

    Guest1144461 replied to KellyM RN's topic in General Nursing

    No I am not grateful. I was an ICU charge who would have to deal with per diem nurses coming in on their mandatory 3 shifts or whatever a month. They were woefully rusty in every sense of the word and...

  17. Short Staffed: An Epidemic

    Guest1144461 replied to KellyM RN's topic in General Nursing

    Male, close to 10

  18. Short Staffed: An Epidemic

    Guest1144461 replied to KellyM RN's topic in General Nursing

    1.Another factor is that nursing is female dominated. I can't tell you how many times we have had new nurses come in and work 2-3 years, start to have kids then go per diem. Per diem nurses are...

  20. Total Number of Nurse Practitioners Hits 325,000

    Guest1144461 replied to MentalKlarity's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    100% over saturation. My residency had 100 applicants for TWO positions. Literally every floor nurse I meet is in NP school and new nurse techs already ask me questions daily about

  21. Wise Orders From Wise Doctors

    Guest1144461 replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

    NP here who works on the floors. I was a RN for years and didn't realize how many nurses lacked common sense until I was the one getting pages... So yeah...this one falls

  22. Nurse Practitioner Residencies

    Guest1144461 replied to JuiceBoxHero's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Hold out for a real residency. I checked Thrive out, its a joke and cash grab. A real residency is 80-90 hour weeks for a year training alongside MDs and residents. Not half *** "live" seminars with a...

  23. How do we prevent Nurse Practitioners from undervaluing themselves?

    Guest1144461 replied to MentalKlarity's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Tough because schools can cash easy checks with their crazy online school presence. Look at online doctorates, most are nursing or education related. It's a racket. The credentialing groups don't care...
