6. I'm an NP student - How did you choose your specialty?

   NHGN replied to abc616's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

   Well, consider it. Columbia has a well-known DE program, right? Why wouldn't we be as scrutinizing of their results as we are of studies funded by drug companies? There's no need to sensationalize my...

9. new grad NP contract negotiation

   NHGN replied to travelRN555's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    NHGN replied to dmstanl1's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I don't see any overt trolling (what am I missing!)? OP- you might get a warmer reception if you gave us some evidence of putting in your own effort in finding this info before asking here. IE "I did...
