  1. EKG help

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

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

  5. FNP CERT EXAM

    amberfnp replied to kellynp's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    2 questions about cert exams: 1) when you get a question with lab values, do they give you the ref ranges? 2) are the names of meds given in trade and generic names, i.e. Lasix (furesomide)?

  13. University of South Alabama MSN program

    amberfnp replied to MSNtobe's topic in Post Graduate Students

    CMMG, I can tell you it was a blow to my ego to have gotten 3 B's (CMN 571~health promo, CMN 568~Adv Family Nsg 1, NU 508~Roles). The only other B I got was in patho. All of these Bs were like one...

    amberfnp replied to Daitch's topic in Post Graduate Students
