  1. Chamberlain University FNP Student

    Isn't it amazing that nurses defend this? I honestly think it's a weird cope mixed with buyer's remorse. When your school is like a used car salesman, that is a
  2. I make exceptions for anatomy mostly, it's definitely a diminishing knowledge realm for most LOL. It's too hard to
  3. I agree, I have seen more motivated and intelligent young college or high school kids coming through than NP students. Almost all heading to PA or med school. I am not trying to stereotype but...
  4. Which to pursue?

    I don’t see why
  5. CRNA vs AA?

    I am not going to get into the details but it’s the reaction of CRNAs to another player in the field that gives me rise. It’s interesting is all. PA schools study two years under the medical...
  6. CRNA vs AA?

    I feel like CRNAs snubbing their noses at AAs (PAs of anesthesia) are the same as MDAs snubbing their noses at CRNAs. It's a pseudo turf, control and money battle at the end of the day until proven...

    When my brother was applying for CRNA school, all the schools were transparent with their overall pass rate and 1st/2nd attempt pass rate over a 5-year period... This is obfuscation
  8. Talk To Me About Being An Inpatient NP

    Possible but much less likely. Unlike the RN world, continuity of care is really important. Trust me, you don't want a new set of patients every 3 days..... it's not fun. 7 on and 7 off is...
  9. Does RN experience affect NP salary quote?

    I know where it is, I lived right next to it. My point still stands, it is not common and frankly only in the nursing world would something completely irrelevant count for something. I want my salary...
  10. Chamberlain University FNP Student

    It's a crazy weird cognitive dissonance where they want to be respected as a provider in a white coat but balk at the most basic methods of vetting or selectivity. Truly astonishing. People touting no...
  11. Talk To Me About Being An Inpatient NP

    I am a hospitalist and did an inpatient fellowship (1 year). Jobs vary but my role is pretty independent. I have a supervising MD but I see them once a day. I then "run the list" with them maaaaaybe...
  12. I'm sorry but at the very least you are introspective and thoughtful about everything. Many here aren't. Some new NPs around here even think RN experience is just as good as a medical (MD)...
  13. Which to pursue?

    I think primary care is better, but if the UC is a fellowship I would say it's better at
  14. 100% they would fail out. I even have seen people complain that simple patho and pharm were too intense on this forum. It's crazy. People want dumbed down convenience, not actual
  15. Which to pursue?

    Umm a fellowship is like a residency and if its anything like mine, its worth 10x more than my actual NP Program was. Fellowships are rare and highly sought after. 1 year of salary loss is trivial and...
  16. Which to pursue?

    It would make you a far more competent provider. I sucked up the low 70k fellowship I did and doubled my salary the next year. Minute Clinics are dead ends for learning and growth IMO. Your...
  17. Which to pursue?

    100% take the urgent care
  18. NP school - no RN experience

    NP education is inadequate regardless. Some of the best NPs I met were not nurses but they were older. Younger and no life experience were a mixed bag. Life experience makes a big
  19. Rosalind Franklin University CRNA App 2023

    One of my friend's ex-coworker goes here, apparently, they had a MASSIVE increase in apps last year. Like double from prior years. Must be post-COVID folks fleeing bedside or something. One of my...
  20. I don't think nursing knows what to focus on academics wise for NPs. Traditionally yes, grad school is research and paper-heavy, but NP school should be focused on competency in a clinical sense and...
  21. Chamberlain University FNP Student

    This is what low-quality diploma mills do. they could pump out 10,000 grads a year with little effort since they don't even have to do anything other than collect checks and post powerpoints on...
  22. I line up stuffed animals and place the, around my house doing mock exams with rounding and presentations to myself. I get way too enamored with my note formatting and seem excited when I see...
  23. My hospital refuses to hire NPs unless they come from their organic fellowship program (1 year) or have SERIOUS experience. My manager (not a provider) told me flat out that the quality of NPs...
  24. Which to pursue?

    Define fellowship. I would always recommend this if it is a true fellowship and not some extended orientation. The lower salary is worth
  25. Chamberlain University FNP Student

    I feel like this is a cope, its okay to accept objective faults with the investment you have put time into. 1. Flexibility. Why does a patient care about this? How does flexibility help produce...
