Are there any ACNPs that work in a primary care clinic or Urgent care clinic, as well as the hospital setting? The scope of practice for ACNPs in NC, where I practice, states that we can see patients with acute or chronic conditions in any setting th...

Thank you Juan. I'll be honest that I'm glad you responded. You have a lot of information that is very helpful and is presented in an easily digestible manner. I've read your background elsewhere, I think you are an ACNP in California, but I can't re...

The only difference is in the training and your liability. Technically, you could see the same people in the hospital setting that you see in primary care. But, if a lawyer wanted to get "froggy" they might could cite you on not being "technically" t...

Yeah, can't be any help with documentation but I can add my congrats! Congratulations!!!

The certification and title will be changing to AG-ACNP but there will not be a difference. The program teaches a little extra about Gerentology because they are eliminating the Adult Gerentolgy NP degree so they just combined it. You'll be fine in e...

Yeah, thats pretty much what I think but I would call the universities now and start taking whatever classes are on their pre-req list there at CC so you'll have as many out of the way as possible. Whatever you can do to lighten your load while your ...

If you are almost finished with your BSN then I would suggest you stick with it and apply for an NP program. It will take less time than going to med school and you can do everything a med degree would allow on a primary level, even specializing(card...

The outside of the envelope should say: ALL THE ANSWERS TO EVERY CLINICAL QUESTION YOU HAVE EVER HAD!!!!!!

Go straight into an RN program. If you don't have to work full time then go into a Bachelors of Science in Nursing program and get all 4 years out of the way. I'm not sure I understand what kind of courses you are talking about that they are offering...

Congratulations!!!!!

Why would you suggest it a good thing to live off the government while you go to nursing school. Looking for ways to rip off taxpayers to pay for your interest in becominga nurse is not good advice.For shame, Larry77, for suggesting it. Either save u...

Basic Economics: A Citizen's Guide to the Economy by Thomas Sowell is a book every person, ESPECIALLY nurses, should read. It will explain in clear and absolute terms why the individual is better off making his own decisions for himself rather than h...

Union ideas come from the great ideology of socialism. H2M has POSITIVE quotes about union's from Big Union websites. SHOCKING! They want everybody to be equal, but guess what? The only way to make everyone absolutely equal is to take everything from...

I don't want to get beat up for not staying in lock-step with whatever the union bosses have decided to do. Getting buried under the in-zone of a football field is not the future I want.

Hey, what book did you get all of that info from? Or was it from the net? That is some great detail that Saunders doesn't bother including

Hey, I'm about to graduate in 3 months and am starting a job in the PICU in July. Any advice would be great, but looking for some specific PICU advice. Namely, what does the PICU staff look for and what makes a good PICU nurse. Thanks for the help.

Thanks, will do.

I highly agree that public schools are socialist plots. If you want healthcare on the level of public schooling system then prepare to have a lot more deaths. We are in the lowest rankings for math and sciences, kids drop out constantly and there are...

a quick poll for allnurses.com members. reply with a "yes" or "no" please. does the federal constitution give the american federal government the authority or power to collect money in the form of taxes to pay for the health care for anyone who wan...

Just a few of the numerous statements by our founders demonstrate that their vision and the vision of Shadegg's Enumerated Powers Act are one and the same. James Madison, in explaining the Constitution in Federalist Paper No. 45, said, "The powers de...

"They are not to do anything they please to provide for the general welfare, but only to lay taxes for that purpose. To consider the latter phrase not as describing the purpose of the first, but as giving a distinct and independent power to do any ac...

no, we don't. just like a liberal to think he knows what everybody thinks and what is best for everyone. couldn't have come up with a better example. thanks tee.

Yeah, because the government can just print off more money with the click of a button. But, this brings the value of those dollars down that the over 65 get every 3rd of the month.

A RIGHT is not a RIGHT if someone else has to provide it. A voluntary exchange between customer(patient) and seller(doctor) at an agreed price is the only single payer system that is economically viable and morally correct. Seller(doctor) charges too...

senior housing isn't a right because some one has to provide the housing. a persons right ends where another persons right begins. if someone wants to give a senior a house then fine, but you infringe on the rights of others when you force them t...
