Looking to see any NP's experience with NP Fellowship or Residency Program? I know the stipend pay sucks, but I dont care for that, just the knowledge and experience to become a better NP. I am looking into Charlotte, NC Advance Clinical practitione...

Epocrates, MPR, Skyscape, and Medscape. UptoDate is the best, but expensive.

Thanks morganvibes. I have checked HRSA, not much openings. I hope 2013 brings more NP jobs. Sadly, I have been rejected due to lack of experience. Thank god that I went back as an RN just to make ends meet. Its disappointing no one wants to tra...

I am too in the job limbo. Everyone wants experience NPs. How can I become experience if I can't find get a NP job. This late summer I did take a np job and realize it was too much for me bc I did not get the support I needed as a new np. I was ...

I never brought it up during the phone or face to face interview. Eventually, the interviewer or doctor will tell you the salary. Most of my phone interviews asked me what salary I'm looking for and I replyed with whatever the starting salary is fo...

I too am feeling the same as you. However, I did not get the support a new grad NP should get and I made the right choice to leave realizing the first 2 weeks the reality of the NP job I took. I was thrown into the wolves! Currently, searching for ...

I was in the same boat. Don't let anxiety overwhelm you during the test. During the test I notice my nerves were getting to me. So I took the time to close my eyes, took a couple of deep breaths, and told myself to calm the heck down. Fitz, hol...

I passed the AANP yesterday!!! I'm still in shock from 3 months of stress from studying for this test. I'm glad its over and now I can enjoy my life.

I took NCLEX today which I got up to 140 questions. Throughout the test I was so anxious especially when I did not stop at 75. I am worried, did I pass or Failed? I feel like I failed. Did any of your guys have 140 question??? Right now I feel li...

Anyone applying or in the NP program at USF? I want to go there. I have been doing alot of research. The requirements are easy to get into. How's the NP program there?

I recently moved to a new city in fl and just finish my nursing orientation. I work at a hospital that is so disorganize, nursing is always the blame, and the system is corrupt. Being new to the area and desperate for a job to be with my husband, I...

I am renewing my BLS, but should I also get ACLS certified as a new nurse. I am floating to different floors that do have telemetry monitor. Anyone have any suggestion for me as a new nurse?

i am a new nurse. i had a patient who was admitted for medical reasons. this patient had an extensive psych history. i finally got admission orders and pain medication 4 hours after the patient had arrive to the floor. i medicated the patient wi...

The patient took Seroquel that morning at home.... 8-9ish. I gave Dilaudid at 1915.

believe it or not... the admitting diagnosis for this psych patient was 2nd degree sunburn. this patient went to the beach and baked herself.... with the combination of photosensitivity of seroquel.

Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (NMS) or extrapyramidal (EPS) signs and symptoms could of cause this since the patient was on such high dose of Seroquel. Drug interactions when taking Seroquel: Barbiturates such as phenobarbital Carbamazepine (Tegret...

No, the doseage on the Dilaudid bottle said 2mg/1ml. The order dose was dilaudid 2mg IV PRN Q4 hours. I only gave 2mg.

The only Psych med was Seroquel 450mg QAM and Seroquel 550mg QHS. The morning dose was already taken prior to admission. Our pharmacy said that Seroquel's max dose is 800mg. The mother of the patient said the patient needed the 450mg + 550mg daily...

I had a bad week... I was so stress from having 5 patients one day and broke down and cried at the nurse's station. THat was embarrassing. Usually I am able to handle stressful days with no problems, but that day was horrible. I wanted to show ot...

I had that happen to me this week. On other floors that I been by myself I was able to handle the stressful patients. But this particular floor that I got off of orientation a week ago was not. They gave me 5 patients on a weekend (always short st...

yeah... i had that happen to me. the other nurses were chit chating behind my back when i was overwhelmed one day.... why didn't i ask for help? well, i wanted to show them that i was able to managed my patients. it was one of those bad days... pat...

Anyone been stressed when your patient deterioates and can't figure out the source when you have all the red flags? Twice, I had that happen. I get so stress and worried about my deteriorating patient that things don't click when I have everything ...

Nursing 3500 can be downloaded from a CD that is sold at books a million, borders, or barnes and nobles. It's great... 3500 practice questions. Saunders questions are too easy and not like NCLEX.

Yes.. I am A new Nurse since March.

Alternate practicing taking questions (Kaplan, Nursing 3500) and reviewing (saunders, Kaplan).
