  1. Anxious I May Lose License Over Diversion

    Guest1144461 replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Career Advice Column

    I have GERD bad sometimes. I am sure if there was a choice between me going home and not rounding on patients or snagging a freaking disused Prilosec so they don't have to call an MD backup (for 200...

  2. Natural "Medicine"?

    Guest1144461 replied to Allison Minor-Green's topic in General Nursing

    Reads like a bored late 20s/early 30s suburbanite mom's MLM scheme (of someone who happens to be in healthcare). Show me some solid RCTs with high power analysis then get back to me. Otherwise...

  3. Chamberlain University FNP Student

    Guest1144461 replied to Guest1030824's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I would not consider Chamberlain hybrid. Hybrid is going to class 1-2 days a week instead of 4. Or at the very least meeting in person for a week once a quarter/semester. Chamberlain is a cash grab...

  4. Chamberlain University FNP Student

    Guest1144461 replied to Guest1030824's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I have had friends who have gone through Chamberlain and schools like it. I never attended because I knew from a mile away that I wasn’t going to waste my money. Chamberlain and schools like it are...

  5. Chamberlain University FNP Student

    Guest1144461 replied to Guest1030824's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Why do people still go to for-profit school with obvious dubious reputations, just why? There are a million programs out there yet people choose to go to the objectively worst

  6. Does RN experience affect NP salary quote?

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

    Sounds like negotiation to me. Nothing in the RN job description aids in being an inpatient provider and my employers knew that. All they care about for current hires is how experienced a NP they are....

  7. Does RN experience affect NP salary quote?

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

    I have seen none on the west coast. Very

  8. The Failing Preceptor System for Nurse Practitioner Students: A Student's Perspective

    Guest1144461 replied to DNPgrad2022's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I am not saying they didn't but I have seen some awfully expensive state schools out there not producing much better of an education...many are online/find your own clinical types. I initially went to...

  9. The Failing Preceptor System for Nurse Practitioner Students: A Student's Perspective

    Guest1144461 replied to DNPgrad2022's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I know what the phrase is referring to, I wasn't throwing it out as a direct reference. I have gone to school for a BSN, MSN, DNP, post-grad fellowship, and I have 10 years of experience. Not my first...

  10. Seeking a Preceptor for my FINAL clinical!

    Guest1144461 replied to WisconsinRN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Telehealth for 180 hours...final clinical....dear

  11. The Failing Preceptor System for Nurse Practitioner Students: A Student's Perspective

    Guest1144461 replied to DNPgrad2022's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Walden is one of many school in the same class. I was in a facebook with Walden/South grad prepping for boards, the questions they were asking were completely asinine/scary and they had GRADUATED....

  12. Does RN experience affect NP salary quote?

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

    I suppose that makes sense, I would venture a guess most NPs inpatient are not union though. Typical union "equity" I suppose. At least in my large urban city I have never seen

  13. The Failing Preceptor System for Nurse Practitioner Students: A Student's Perspective

    Guest1144461 replied to DNPgrad2022's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Not my experience and not the experience of many new grad RNs I talk to on a daily basis. It was drilled into us (me being 19 years old and impressionable), that we would be expected to go to school...

  14. The Failing Preceptor System for Nurse Practitioner Students: A Student's Perspective

    Guest1144461 replied to DNPgrad2022's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Problem is you have nurses as faculty, not subject matter experts. To offer these classes the school of nursing would actually have to collaborate with the rest of the school and stop being an

  15. The Failing Preceptor System for Nurse Practitioner Students: A Student's Perspective

    Guest1144461 replied to DNPgrad2022's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    With on another thread a new NP told me that RN experience was just as good as a medical residency. So they are teaching them something in school at least, delusional

  16. Does RN experience affect NP salary quote?

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

    I also find it particularly interesting that new or novice NPs are so confident that RN experience matters without ever working a day as APN. Even going as far as saying RN experience is the same or...

  17. Does RN experience affect NP salary quote?

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

    "Depending on RN experience and location, it often is just as good, if not better than most residencies. " This is an insane claim @Tegridy. Unequivocally not true in any way shape or form. We...

  18. Does RN experience affect NP salary quote?

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

    I disagree. I also was a RN in the ICU/ER (charge, rapid response etc) for about 10 years before becoming a full-fledged NP. I stand by the assertion that RN experience means little in the realm of...

  19. Does RN experience affect NP salary quote?

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

    Where are RNs at any level doing end-of-life discussions in a role more than just adjunct/supportive? Like hey you have 6 months to live and no I don't recommend moving forward with chemo etc...

  20. Does RN experience affect NP salary quote?

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

    No, RN experience is a hack lobbying point to further perpetuate low clinical hour thresholds required for graduation. Again, no. Diploma mills NP programs exist for many reasons. Having RN...

  21. The Failing Preceptor System for Nurse Practitioner Students: A Student's Perspective

    Guest1144461 replied to DNPgrad2022's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    To further expand, the problem starts with the push for a BSN and BSN programs. Everyone is taught in nursing school that it is almost expected you pursue higher education after your BSN. With this...

  22. The Failing Preceptor System for Nurse Practitioner Students: A Student's Perspective

    Guest1144461 replied to DNPgrad2022's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    What do you mean by residency? Post-grad? Mine was very formal and we were integrated with actual MD residents for a large portion of it. The NP preceptor is a joke because NP admissions is a...

  23. FNP to specializing ?

    Guest1144461 replied to stitchli815's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I honestly think wound care is better. Specialty pharmacists do all of our diabetes management and I think wound care is hotly in demand plus sort of cool. DM is kinda dull and pretty

  24. Does RN experience affect NP salary quote?

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

    No, the issue is that NP pay is inadequate at baseline. With the recent rise in RN salaries post-COVID, even my six-figure income is about the same as most nurses who put in a little OT. NPs need a...

  25. Does RN experience affect NP salary quote?

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

    Other than pattern recognition, what about RN experience or training benefits the provider role? (To the degree where extra pay is
