    Home births gone wrong

    IrishIzCPNP replied to MNNICU, RN's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    IrishIzCPNP replied to OkieNP's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Actually, one of the instructors in my program did this. She was an FNP and working in peds and decided to do the PNP. You would just do a post-master's certificate...so it wouldn't take too...

    Not getting charge nurse position

    IrishIzCPNP replied to frisky's topic in Nurse Management
