    Pediatric Certification?

    They are NOT baby size adults. There are lots of post master PNP certificate programs but....probably going to take at least a year. There is more to know than just calculating dose based on weight....

    Pediatric Certification?

    Um...I'm thinking you need to go read what the patient population is for an Adult Gero NP. There is a reason you didn't do peds in

    I am drawing a blank at her name. I know others had a male teacher...I had a female and that's really all I can

    UPS Drivers make HOW much????

    I'm comparing to salaries of those I know near me to RN salaries here. Here the McDonald's manager made more than I did as a nurse. The teachers...some of them making salaries nurses here could only...

    UPS Drivers make HOW much????

    Me too. I respect all professions. There is an issue when nurses are making less than hairdressers and waitresses and managers at fast food joints. It's a major issue. Everyone deserves a fair...

    I apologize for the mistaken identity. Clearly I should turn my license in because my lack of detail on a message

    UPS Drivers make HOW much????

    I see nothing wrong with my view but do see a crap attitude in your first post...so differing opinions. I can't change yours either. I'm just glad all you are doing is delivering my boxes. If you...

    UPS Drivers make HOW much????

    I'll put us pretty equal with the trash guy. I've always said they trashman I done of my best friends. The McDonald's manager...no we don't need that job. So I still believe in the ladder of...

    UPS Drivers make HOW much????

    It isn't elitist at all. You want a low paid RN taking care of you? The big attitude is see is from you about how much better you are than nurses and how hard you work and how you deserve your pay....

    UPS Drivers make HOW much????

    It's not that you don't deserve your pay but...certainly an RN deserves at least a similar rate. It's messed up when nurses make less than McDonald's

    Want to be L&D rn but hate the OR?

    I hated the OR...but sucked it up as part of L&D. I just would cross my fingers I didn't end up in there. You can certainly make in L&D and hate the OR...not every aspect of every job is...

    I'll never forget the time i was working and had a patient to transport....in her bed. We always use 2 people as we transport in full hospital beds. I was told ask Joe to help because Sally was...

    FNP/RN job description

    I think you missed what could have likely been a really crappy position. The attitude of the doctor tells you a lot. The fact that they see RN = NP is an issue. If he isn't doing nursing stuff why...

    FNP/RN job description

    Hmmm....sounds like an office who likely doesn't respect the NP title as a provider. Does the doctor who is there do nursing

    Student Appeal

    I think an appeal won't get well. In the real world if you pull the wrong med...still an incident even if you didn't give it. So still a med error. You can try to appeal but I wouldn't be too...

    Help Selecting FNP Program

    You aren't opposed to completing some BSN course work? You do realize you need an RN to be an NP. I'm not sure what you are really aiming for. You are going to have to do all the BSN coursework (or...
  23. I'm wondering what is going to happen if I have my RN (which means the 2 hour course) and next year I earn my NP. Do I need the 2 hour or 3 hour? I have an existing license and getting the NP. I'm...

    Medical Assistants being called nurses

    Thank you for the info. I'll still continue changing and err on the side of comfort for the patient. It's still doesn't excuse them putting the syringe on the counter without a cap or capped needle...
