  1. Is a FNP working for a Psychiatrist legal ??

    Alicia777 replied to lmonet82's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I think it's fine too. You could always check with your BON but if you're an FNP then you're qualified to take of patients across the age spectrum, assuming he will train you as needed for this

  3. Broke and unemployed

    Alicia777 replied to Brokeand unemploye's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    A friend of mine emailed several clinics that hadn't even posted a job and spoke with the office manager. She ended up getting a part time position. I bothered a family member who works within the...

  4. Job offer help

    Alicia777 replied to rightwithin's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Agree with PP, I've never heard of paying for all of these fees yourself. Have you tried negotiating? Doesn't hurt to ask. Give HR (or whomever you're dealing with) a rough estimate of what everything...

  5. How did you celebrate passing your boards?

    Alicia777 replied to xos4eva's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

  7. Boycott schools that make you find your own preceptors

    Alicia777 replied to Pilot2FNP's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I haven't read through all the posts but I went to a school where I had to find my own preceptors. While it was extremely difficult (and only happened because I already knew 2 of the 4 and the other 2...

  8. Which is more marketable/more job opportunities: FNP or ANP?

    Alicia777 replied to Summers3's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I chose FNP because my background in nursing is both with adults and pediatric patients. I didn't want to limit myself especially since I had previous

  10. Pregnant question

    Alicia777 replied to nurse4ever08's topic in General Nursing

    #1 I went into labor at home at 39/2 after a 10 hr shift and with my second it was a scheduled section, much more pleasant. Just listen to your body! Congrats

  11. Yearly Bonus Ripped Off?

    Alicia777 replied to cd365c's topic in General Nursing

    That's a ridiculous statement, ****** has no where near the history the other word does. If you don't like it correct people and move

  12. New NP feeling so out of place in new job

    Alicia777 replied to Anewnp's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    It's seems like a very natural thing to feel out of place. Remember what you felt like when you were a new grad RN?? One day at a

    Alicia777 replied to kasi2g's topic in Advanced Practice

    The best place to find your answer will be either your state BON or the NP assoc of NY.. Good luck, sounds

  14. NP job negotiating help!

    Alicia777 replied to Cosmeticnp's topic in Advanced Practice

    Wow, 63K a year? Ouch. I guess it depends if this is your dream job? Are they willing to provide a residency? Did you speak about a productivity bonus and pay increase once you take a full patient...

  15. How many patients are you expected to see daily?

    Alicia777 replied to URGR8T's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Yuck!

  16. Improving NP Education

    Alicia777 replied to matthewandrew's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I feel at a disadvantage not having had an class on reading X-rays and how to dress a would or sew a simple laceration. Skills that an NP in a hospital-setting could use. Something like that would...

  17. Getting it in writing

    Alicia777 posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I have now been "fooled" twice by potential employers. I get to the third round of interviews for my first NP job and then either HR and or the Nurse manager has told me that they will not be...

  18. Interview questions

    Alicia777 replied to reyesnp's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Geesh really?! Did you have to actually recite the pap guidelines? Mine haven't focused on clinicals nearly at all and more with what I'm currently doing as an RN and past experiences and how this...

    Alicia777 replied to MLB4's topic in Operating Room

    Me! I'm an OR nurse and graduated with FNP-still trying to find a job. Honestly, coming from the OR, and having been there for almost the past decade, it has been somewhat of a detriment to my finding...

  20. Why the NP degree will be the next MBA with 7 simple, quick reasons

    Alicia777 replied to chillnurse's topic in Advanced Practice

    Oh I hate the term. Oddly enough, it's been used by many Nurse managers (and a couple PAs and HR) in my experience. What does that make those RN managers then, 'low

  21. Seeking a job

    Alicia777 replied to Jdailey's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    That's a tough one but assuming your boss knows you'll soon be seeking a new job, I guess you need to go speak with your manager and point blank ask her if your past write ups will result in a poor...

  22. Should I mention this to my coworkers?

    Alicia777 replied to nyc2011's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Well, I guess you have to think about the pros and cons. If everyone *did* know they'd be more willing to switch shifts/weekends etc if you need to get papers written or clinical. Plus, in the off...

  23. Seeking a job

    Alicia777 replied to Jdailey's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    What was the nature of the final warning? It matters whether it was something like being late a few times for work versus making medication

  24. Coworker is Innappropriate

    Alicia777 replied to missnurse89's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    I think someone correcting your grammar isn't "inappropriate". It makes me second guess if what your co-worker is doing is
