  2. Credibility of Walden University

    KansasFNP replied to angie16451's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Disagree.

  3. Credibility of Walden University

    KansasFNP replied to angie16451's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    To my knowledge, the purpose of a MS Ed program is NOT to "prepare" you for NP school. This individuals my be great educators but not have the knack for the advanced clinical knowledge to be an NP....

  4. Credibility of Walden University

    KansasFNP replied to angie16451's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    It seems a little unfair to say that they received FNP education at a different university and blame waldens program for their shortcomings. Walden has offered a non clinical masters in nursing for...

  5. Do you (Active NP's) feel respected by MD's/DO's/PA'S

    KansasFNP replied to KansasFNP's topic in Advanced Practice

    Fluffy, that is too bad. I have heard that some NP's have met resistance from the nursing staff. This is such an oddity. A profession that eats their young and frowns at clinical advancement....

  6. Are online ANP degrees destroying our credibility?

    KansasFNP replied to jilljw's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I posted this to a different OP but I will repost here as it is just as applicable... For those of us poor saps that have chosen to remain in rural America (Kansas here) going to a brick and mortar...

  7. Will you get a job not matter what school you received NP degree?

    KansasFNP replied to sav3alif3RN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    For those of us poor saps that have chosen to remain in rural America (Kansas here) going to a brick and mortar school is simply not an option. The nearest state school with an NP program is 100 miles...

  8. Credibility of Walden University

    KansasFNP replied to angie16451's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am a current Walden FNP student and have been nothing but impressed with the program. They have been quite helpful and are the ONLY distance education program to be approved by my home state BON...

  9. Trust yourself and all you've learned

    KansasFNP replied to mammac5's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    As a FNP student soon to be FNP graduate, I am very nervous about the premise of working around clinicians who are three times my senior. Thanks for the

  10. Do you (Active NP's) feel respected by MD's/DO's/PA'S

    KansasFNP replied to KansasFNP's topic in Advanced Practice

    TraumaRU's: Most of what I have come across is the PA profession stating that since our training and education are similar, NP's should not be independent practitioners but require oversight by a...

  11. Do you (Active NP's) feel respected by MD's/DO's/PA'S

    KansasFNP replied to KansasFNP's topic in Advanced Practice

    You all are GREAT! Thanks a million for the responses. This is very encouraging to hear. I try not to pay too much attention to all of the hooplah regarding this topic but ran across the American...

  12. Is all this school just crap or what?

    KansasFNP replied to burnedoutRNinSC's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    As someone who is currently in the mix of an FNP program I am going to take a unpopular stance on this. I believe that having to take all of this "crap" is what eventually makes us good holistic...

  13. Going for a MD program from FNP

    KansasFNP replied to mahaandai's topic in Advanced Practice

    If your goal is to be as close to a physician as you can without putting in all of the "hard work" then a NP track is not for you. If you love what you do/did as a critically thinking registered nurse...

  14. Young, Thin, and Cute New Hires

    KansasFNP replied to TheCommuter's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I don't care how old/young, fat/skinny, new/experienced you are. What MATTERS is that in a pinch situation, you know what you are doing and how to intervene using your God-given common sense. I have...

  15. Walden University BEWARE

    KansasFNP replied to SassieRN's topic in School, College Programs

    I am a BSN graduate from WGU and have had NO issues being accepted into other schools. Starting with Walden for the AGNP program in December. They have been great to work with, are accredited and...

    KansasFNP replied to kenyohunt1's topic in School, College Programs

    I am in Kansas and starting the AGNP program on December 4th. Anyone

  17. How would deal with these type of CNAs?

    KansasFNP replied to Born_2BRN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I have come to learn that many CNA's/PCT's are not exactly sure what your role as the registered nurse is. I have had my fair share of unlicensed personnel give me the "why can't you do it" speech. I...

  19. Any RN's that would like to fill out a quick interview?

    KansasFNP replied to KansasFNP's topic in General Nursing

    Nursequilter -- You are correct about this. Hence my plea from all of you on allnurses. I work in a small rural area with no local NP and few specialty RN's. I'm in a rough situation but oh well. I...

    KansasFNP replied to 2bELNurse1's topic in Male Nursing Students
