  2. ACNP Program Structure and Clinical Questions

    JDCitizen replied to medicrnohio's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Anyone that has been there done that (Acute care NP)... How was your program structured and what did you do (course work as well a clinical wise)... Thanks in

  3. Dumb question--What do you NPs do?

    JDCitizen replied to Joe NightingMale's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    One shouldn't confuse minimal requirements as applying to everyone. I myself have taken more classes than are required for most premed students (Biology, Chemistry, Math, English). I have even delved...

  4. New NP feeling discouraged...

    JDCitizen replied to christvs's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    OK add me to the discouraged list.... Poof: A marginally bad job goes to terrible..... New rules: new doctor (medical director) but same overall state practice. Yes, I work for the state so this...

  5. FNP Admission Privileges

    JDCitizen replied to revolution's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    So in California with DEA number in hand one gets to prescribe, furnish of whatever... Important part is the NP gets to take care of the patient without running to big daddy each and every time. Most...

  6. FNP Admission Privileges

    JDCitizen replied to revolution's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I kind of thought the maybe the wording was in such a way as to keep the California association of medicine

  7. FNP Admission Privileges

    JDCitizen replied to revolution's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    So it's all about semantics? Any other profession allowed to furnish? I must say it's interesting and more than a bit frustrating to read about the never ending mosaic (mishmash) groups of laws NP's...

  8. FNP Admission Privileges

    JDCitizen replied to revolution's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    MAC (Medical association of California) is probably laughing about this all the way to the bank... Over simplification (but still some truth).....Does that mean when I order a test, a medication or...

  9. New NP feeling discouraged...

    JDCitizen replied to christvs's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I agree 100% rotating shifts really are rough. Every time your sleep patterns get adjusted that is when the rotation hits... My first 6 months of nursing I did the swing shift thing; came close to...

  10. Training / Continued training medical wise

    JDCitizen posted a topic in Government, Military

    Air Force / Army: Looks like for nurses there is more training once in; does anyone know about the actual mid/upper level providers (MDs, NPs,

  11. Training / Continued training medical wise

    JDCitizen replied to JDCitizen's topic in Government, Military

    No I didn't make it clear sorry.... but great information anyway. What I have come across in my readings here and there is that there seems to be way more training of nurses once they are in (not...

  12. Georgia NP practice questions

    JDCitizen posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    While I await the bureaucrats here in Georgia to answer my questions I thought I would pose two here: Delegation: Law in part reads: ...shall include a provision for immediate consultation with the...

  13. NP providing Rx across state lines?

    JDCitizen replied to revolution's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I think this is probably where technology is moving faster than the law.... With the federal government pushing for all things be computer generated this is probably going to be the norm instead of...

  14. Quick FNP/PNP Question

    JDCitizen replied to revolution's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am a Family Nurse Practitioner and worked with an internal medicine / Nephrology group... Let’s see I have/worked with Family Nurse Practitioners in the ER, trauma, cardiology, and...

  15. Barriers to Entry: Medical Waivers

    JDCitizen replied to StudyinginCT's topic in Government, Military

    Not to get your hopes up... Read about what can cause a DQ than go for it anyway: Not sure about Wolf-Parkinson-White Syndrome getting a waiver. My expereince: History of a Tibial plateau fx and...

  16. Locum tenens nurse practitioner? Travel NP?

    JDCitizen replied to lannisz's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    You know I had thought about that in the past... I would say one would have to be very confident in ones skills... I wonder how they handle new NP's. I have seen the sites and received the emails but...

    JDCitizen replied to faline1973's topic in Government, Military

    Hope you don't mind if I chime in. I agree with wtbcrna... Seems to quote what I have been told/seen. Now here goes the flight of thoughts: While I was in NP school my partner from nursing school...

  18. NPs, do you know if this is true?

    JDCitizen replied to Spacklehead's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Actually may depend on the states Nurse Practice Act as well as the auspices one was hired under. Contracts or hiring agreements can stand up in court; this is not to say in the court of law ones...

  19. NPs, do you know if this is true?

    JDCitizen replied to Spacklehead's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I would probably go for the higher coverage; just to be safe. I don't know about other states but here in GA APRNs are double charged by the Board of Nursing: You have to have your RN license and the...

    JDCitizen replied to lannisz's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP
