  1. New Grad Nurse Starting DNP Program

    None of this decision making makes any sense. Apply another time, it's not like NP school is
  2. University of South Carolina FNP 2020

    I started their acute care program years ago. I honestly was disappointed in the program and transferred shortly after starting. I was surprised how unorganized it was for a big state school. Are you...
  3. Acute Care NP without ICU experience?

    I am sorry, pray tell how someone with <1000 hours NP experience (school combined and being generous) prepare someone to be a competent critical care provider. I did acute care at a large state...
  4. That usefulness in coursework would be better served by another 1000 hours of
  5. On line NP or On-campus Np? (MA)

    On campus for sure. I am not saying that online education is bad but you will be VERY stressed looking for preceptors. I know many people who flat out quit because it was not possible. Remember,...
  6. Nurse Practitioner Residencies

    Even so it is not enough, my year long program was close to 4000 hours on top of my thousands and thousands of RNs hours. PAs do at least a few thousand, MDS have 15000-20000 hours. Being a student...
  7. Nurse Practitioner Residencies

    Yes most hospitals due some sort of entry training for NPs but it is no where close to a formal year long residency. I don't know where you live but in my west coast city, new grads NPs are basically...
  8. I would do it if I was forced too. At the juncture, I would find the quickest and easiest program possible. that's how little I care about a fluff degree. I was thinking about pursuing the DNP last...
  9. DNP from Yale?

    I highly doubt it will affect your pay, physician colleagues ad HR could care less. Can you diagnose and prescribe? That is the extent to which they
  10. Nurse Practitioner Residencies

    Reps, as in seeing patients and clinical scenarios over and over. 600 clinical hours doesn't cut it. Honestly I am surprised an ACNP program took you w/o RN experience. I don't really want to reveal...
  11. Acute Care NP without ICU experience?

    Its very rare for hospitals to hire new grad ICU nurses and even rarer to let them go part
  12. Anyone Using 'Doctor' Title at Work?

    I don't have a DNP, because it is literally probably one of the most fluffed up doctorates out there, however NONE of my DNP colleagues use the term "doctor" while in the hospital. I use, "Hi, I am...
  13. Full practice authority only bills for 85%?

    This is a federal thing, get used to
  14. Nurse Practitioner Residencies

    Very very competitive. I did one where only 2 residents were accepted (Well over a hundred applicants). AMAZING program but obviously low pay for a year. My ICU experience did little to help me as an...
  15. A mix of both but at the end of the day everyone uses uptodate for practice, I used frameworks for internal medicine if I need to brush up on concepts. I actually bought board review for MD residents,...
  16. DNP NECESSARY????

    So I work as an ARNP ( I did a year long fellowship as well). No one in clinical practice cares about the DNP and 90% of HR personnel and 99% of physicians in my experience barely even know there are...
