  1. Psych NP inpatient per patient fees?

    resilientnurse posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Greetings, Does anyone know how inpatient psychiatric compensation works? A psychiatrist has offered me an opportunity to join his inpatient medical group at a local hospital. He asked me directly how...

    resilientnurse replied to DrZaphod's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

  4. UMET @ Interamerican- Fall 2014

    resilientnurse replied to nycgirl305's topic in US Territories, Puerto Rico

    If you need catalogs, the admissions official will let you know. Also, do you know someone already there? That is truly the best way to follow the progress of your application. Puerto Rico is very...

  5. Case Western Reserve University

    resilientnurse posted a topic in Ohio Nursing

    I have recently applied to the MSN Psych NP program at CWRU. Does any have any experience with the application process, being admitted or denied, financial aid (is it just loans?), and the program...

  6. Can you get into NP school with BS in emergency health services

    resilientnurse replied to medic turning rn's topic in Advanced Practice

    They have a FNP direct entry program for ADNs. They call them "bridge" programs. When I was applying to schools I literally checked out every school in the country, one by one, of those that offered...

  7. PMHNP Job Offer

    resilientnurse replied to ch120677's topic in Advanced Practice

    Hi there, You may want to consider the following points (not in any order of importance): 1. What is your general patient population? Were you hired to tend to a specific subpopulation? If so, why? 2....

  8. Doctorate in a field other than nursing?

    resilientnurse replied to greygooseuria's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    I say go for it! I have a MPH and have been considering a doctorate in public health as opposed to nursing. Looks like you are interested in Anthropology. You may want to take a look at CONAA--the...

  9. Does psych nursing affect ur home life?

    resilientnurse replied to ProgressiveThinking's topic in Psychiatric

    Working in psychiatric/mental health does affect my family life only in the sense that I worry about my children and their development, so much more as opposed to when I worked Med/Surg, because I see...

  10. psych nursing in PR

    resilientnurse replied to Ruthcns's topic in US Territories, Puerto Rico

    Puerto Rico does not recognize APNs. In fact, there is no APN license. The nursing license you would secure is for a RN and you will eventually test for that although you can get a temporary permit at...

    resilientnurse replied to Sinedenise's topic in International Nursing

  12. UMET @ Interamerican- Fall 2014

    resilientnurse replied to nycgirl305's topic in US Territories, Puerto Rico

    Wow, that was a wonderful opportunity! How blessed you are. I might have gotten $500 in scholarships. Otherwise, I had to pay the whole thing in cash. As far as working after graduation, I did not...

  13. UMET @ Interamerican- Fall 2014

    resilientnurse replied to nycgirl305's topic in US Territories, Puerto Rico

    Oh, one other thing . . . I don't know about you Jen_Jen88, but I graduated with no nursing school debt unlike many of my colleagues. My tuition was $150 per credit. The degree cost me less than $12K...

  14. UMET @ Interamerican- Fall 2014

    resilientnurse replied to nycgirl305's topic in US Territories, Puerto Rico

    Yeah, the VA was by far my favorite clinical site. Practically all my professors were from UMET. They were picking up extra work by working at la Inter. I miss Puerto Rico, but I lived in such abject...

  15. UMET @ Interamerican- Fall 2014

    resilientnurse replied to nycgirl305's topic in US Territories, Puerto Rico

    Yeah, the one nice thing about nursing professors in Puerto Rico is that they really, really want you to be successful. I cannot relate at all to the horror stories from nurses that studied in the...

  16. UMET @ Interamerican- Fall 2014

    resilientnurse replied to nycgirl305's topic in US Territories, Puerto Rico

    I finished in 15 months at la Interamericana by taking classes in English and Spanish. Now, I already had a BA and had no general education requirements so it was all nursing classes. No one decided...

    resilientnurse replied to Julie.Bird.Here's topic in US Territories, Puerto Rico

    I agree. However, the reality is that it is VERY difficult to get in the VA. There is literally a waiting list of applicants AND it cannot really be done online. You have to physically be present to...

  19. UMET @ Interamerican- Fall 2014

    resilientnurse replied to nycgirl305's topic in US Territories, Puerto Rico

    No matter which program you choose, be absolutely certain to inquire about clinical hours and sites. Are students actually being sent to clinical sites at hospitals? If so, for how many hours each...

  20. Should I go to University of Michigan or Michigan State University?

    resilientnurse replied to Jane1117's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Seriously consider UM. You do not want the added stress and loss of productivity time traveling to clinicals. It might prove to be too much. Good luck to

  21. I HAVE A LOW GPA

    resilientnurse replied to lowgpa's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Maybe this might best be posted under the Pre-NP or Student NP

  22. Hate being an RN

    resilientnurse replied to MILOBRI's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Your title resonated with me because I did not like being a RN either. In fact, I knew before I went to nursing school that I wanted to be an APN. I started my nursing career in Latin America where MD...

  25. Am I really a NP if I do laser hair removal?

    resilientnurse replied to wildcatarnp's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Do you enjoy your job? That's the million dollar question. However, for me . . . you said the magic phrase: "the pay is wonderful." Blessings don't always come wrapped up the way we think they
