I don't know what they could possibly be asking you for four hours! I think they may go through a series of interpersonal questions (to see how well you'll fit in with the team), maybe provide a few scenarios of "tell me a time when....", or maybe th...
Hello there!
I have not applied or was interviewed for a ICU NP position, but I have applied and interviewed for a Cardiology NP position, a Rapid Response NP position, as well as three Hospitalist NP positions (which I landed two of those posit...
Thank you! I was just informed that my previous employer is under CMS investigation for possible fraud. I am so glad I left when I did (although under unfortunate circumstances).
Hello. Yes, things are going well. The update was nothing never came of it. I moved on to get another NP position directly with a respectable hospital system this time. My privileges are still good at my previous hospital and I was offered a position...
Thank you all for the advice.
I have consulted with an attorney, currently awaiting reply.
You are correct in stating I should not have taken this contract. Again, it was my first NP job, I was just excited to be starting my new career and...
Hello. I am a NP that worked for a private hospitalist group. Due to a family emergency (family member critically ill/possibly death, coded, in ICU), I had to go home (reside in a different state). This was during my work week, I advised my superviso...
Hello there!
I started a new Hospitalist NP role last month. I have 13 years experience as an ER nurse. Let me tell you, this has been the most challenging transition I've ever encountered to date in my professional life. The learning curve is S...
Rosh review helped some with the ANCC, I had a 98% passing rate on the Rosh review and still failed on my second attempt with a score of 334. My first attempt was a 318 without Rosh. I passed on my third and final attempt by joining the ANCC Study Bo...
OMG! I so feel you on this! I am an ACNP, with 13 years of Level 1 teaching/trauma ER experience as a RN. I am starting a new role as a Hospitalist NP. Totally different role than ER. As my credentialing is almost complete, I am freaking out! I have ...
Hello!
I'm not sure if the AACN has changed the test recently, but in the past they provided some "study questions" and a study bank when you purchased your certification.
I found Rosh Review to be more in lined with the AACN, along with B...

No, you're not alone. I have been an ER nurse since 2009, graduated with my AG-ACNP in August 2020 and I have been applying for NP jobs and I'm unable to land anything. I have no choice but to continue to work as an ER nurse and travel to get the mon...
Hello there! My main travel nursing companies are Flexcare, Fastaff, and Kruical. I used Flexcare pre-covid and they had the best rates for CA and paid the highest at the time. I used Fastaff for a local assignment and was given great hourly rates,...

I've been an ER nurse for over 12 years, worked at several hospitals across the country due to being a travel nurse. Some of the most memorable ones:
Pt comes in by ambulance. States he has a "funny taste" after eating something "my girlfriend c...
Kruical just posted crisis needs again for TX this AM. Favorites is posting crisis needs for CA today. While I'm not happy about COVID, with each new variant, crisis rates will be around to stay.
I'm personally taking a local travel assignment f...
I am a new grad NP, passed boards, and been a travel nurse for 8 years, RN for 12 years. I am doing a local assignment for 115/hr, OT 172.50/hr. I only have to commit to 36 hours a week. Right now, that's more than what any experienced NP is making t...
