  1. A Deep Dive into NCLEX Next Generation 2023

    nitenurse replied to Payton RN Writer's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I am not generalizing, I am speaking from my experience. That was why everyone put study groups together. Academically speaking, I have two bachelor degrees (one in HR and a BSN), two master degrees...

    nitenurse replied to Payton RN Writer's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Not a conclusion on my beliefs and I'm not sure as to how you arrived at that

  4. A Deep Dive into NCLEX Next Generation 2023

    nitenurse replied to Payton RN Writer's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Yes, they were 'general' A&P classes; in A&P I, we had two ultrasound students, one MRI, one CT and three HIM students (out of 54 students total). In A&P II, two respiratory, one medical...

    That's what Ben Carlson did. He never attended any lecture and just read the medical texts -he said he learned better by

  6. A Deep Dive into NCLEX Next Generation 2023

    nitenurse replied to Payton RN Writer's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    This absolutely correct. I work at a teaching hospital and I don't believe that a single student has been able answer basic A&P questions when asked. However, its like any other experience, its...

  7. A Deep Dive into NCLEX Next Generation 2023

    nitenurse replied to Payton RN Writer's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    A couple of thoughts: 1.The discussion here is directed specifically at the NCLEX, not overarching talking points for all healthcare disciplines, however, with that being said: 2. I state...

  8. A Deep Dive into NCLEX Next Generation 2023

    nitenurse replied to Payton RN Writer's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    As I stated, pepper scenarios that would be found on standardized exams, not every situation that a nurse could possibly encounter (that's just plain silly to even attempt). So, for example, the if...

  9. A Deep Dive into NCLEX Next Generation 2023

    nitenurse replied to Payton RN Writer's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Curriculums do not teach critical thinking, yet every standardized test expects the test takers to have it mastered for certification/licensing which is just silly. There is no 'right' answer, you...

  10. Offensive Raise Structure

    nitenurse replied to adventure_rn's topic in General Nursing

    hmmm if this true, there has to be more to this; are these new grads with BSN's? across the board of acute care inpatient hospitals or an LTC

  11. Florence Didn't Fake It

    nitenurse replied to Leah Mraz's topic in General Nursing

    Absolutely fake it till you make it -not for the reason of purposeful deception but to project confidence to someone that is not feeling their best. It's no different from taking your car to a...

  12. Should I Specialize?

    nitenurse replied to Ellie Kearney's topic in General Specialties

    The only solid piece of advice in this was the shadowing if one is already a floor nurse and trying to do something else (essentially every position you look at/want to apply to will want experience)....

  13. High Risk Student Liability Insurance

    nitenurse replied to yelly23's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I have come across a few programs that require you obtain your own insurance -this is addition to the liability insurance that you are covered under with their program. So, there are a few providers...

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

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

    I wish that was the case? In all of my travels, I have never come across any nursing program that did not require prerequisites. If you have some examples, I would love to see them. Now regarding...

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

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

    That sounds about right; the average nurse practitioner salary is $93,000 to $130,000 depending on specialty and zip code. So, if you a new RN grad that completed just enough hours to qualify to sit...
