  5. Is the market becoming saturated with NPs??

    coco3299 replied to DroogieRN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    The Messiah? Be lucky you have a job. Getting paid peanuts in your scenario would take years, in the meantime be happy you have a CAREER that is lasting. Stop trying to find any excuse to get to the...

  9. Any preceptors??

    coco3299 replied to bayouchick02's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Well I am bumping this thread because I want feedback from others- who else had state limits on preceptors? What if you were mainly online? I had no idea there were contracts with BON regarding...

  10. Any preceptors??

    coco3299 replied to bayouchick02's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am confused by this too because some programs take nurses from all over the US online, but my online program is saying that students can only go so far for preceoptors because of BON contracts??? So...

  11. Make Advanced Practice Nurses Independent

    coco3299 replied to Pete495's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Theoretically I know NPs can make the difference. I have been treated by an NP and request that my preemie son see an NP at his peds office- she is great. My main concern has come my first semester at...

  12. NP Programs Online

    coco3299 posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    So I know many NP programs offer distant learning now and I have decided to start one myself. I went to University of Phoenix for an MBA years ago and I just wanted to know if anyone could answer any...

  13. NP Programs Online

    coco3299 replied to coco3299's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    So you liked UOP too? What type of MSN do you currently have? I am sitting here considering transferring from this school. While their BSN program seems to be more organized, perhaps they are not in...

  14. Verifying Multiple State Licenses

    coco3299 posted a topic in Nurse Management

    How many of your facilities do this? It can be costly using a third party company for accuracy. Or do you verify in your state only?

  15. Low GPA- Need Help!

    coco3299 replied to Live Well RN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Students usually take classes to bring GPA up. Go to a GPA calculator and see how many classes you would have to take to bring it up. The other option is 'conditional acceptance' where you have like a...

  16. Any info on University of South Alabama

    coco3299 replied to Live Well RN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

  18. New idea for NP/PA to MD

    coco3299 replied to FNPinKS's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I do not have the time nor the energy to argue the 'what if' all day. We stated our positions, moving on. I did not read past your first line when I saw the thesis you had written. Point is when the...

  19. New idea for NP/PA to MD

    coco3299 replied to FNPinKS's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    If you read the concept of the initial poster the topic was a bridge from MD to NP.

  20. New idea for NP/PA to MD

    coco3299 replied to FNPinKS's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I'm sure it was 'doubtful' that nurses would ever have prescriptive authority but they now do. Chaos and conflict brings about change. Primary doctors are running low and the number of insured will...

  21. Is it just my facility, or are nurses really this backbitting?

    coco3299 replied to Nurse_Tricia's topic in Geriatric, LTC

  22. New idea for NP/PA to MD

    coco3299 replied to FNPinKS's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I told my friend last year that these programs would be sprouting up in no time. Its the only natural progression that can come from NP's and esp since nurses make the best doctors. It sounds like you...

  23. NP in a free clinic setting

    coco3299 replied to RN-ing's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    This is the second of my top two areas to work in. I notice, though, that most free clinics are ran by local medical schools. If you live where there is a medical school then chances are they have...

  24. Discouraged!

    coco3299 replied to TJFRN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

  25. Question- Nursing license 'Active (Restricted)'

    coco3299 replied to nurseontheway's topic in General Nursing

    It sounds like it might just be you being nosy and this may be none of your business, but in any even if you are THAT nosy you can request a public document of that person sent to you for around...
