  1. General NP question, please

    ANPFNPGNP replied to macizu's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    You have to remember that your employer is billing and collecting far more than your salary, so he/she can pay expenses and make a profit off of your work. I have a friend who billed well over...

  2. NP "Glut" on the market

    ANPFNPGNP replied to dgclough's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Of course not, I'm completely

  3. Online program recommendations

    ANPFNPGNP replied to bhstarz's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I can tell from your comments that this is an extremely touchy subject for you. Obviously, I'm not the only one you've encountered who thinks 100% online education isn't what you've envisioned it to...

  4. Master Degree in Nursing

    ANPFNPGNP replied to yoginurse2b's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    How do you know you're a graduate of the top nurse practitioner program in the country? You take 100% of your classes online and never even have to show up on campus and you actually think this is a...

  5. NP Schools

    ANPFNPGNP replied to cardiacnurse1969's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Is that the out of state

  6. Master Degree in Nursing

    ANPFNPGNP replied to yoginurse2b's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I visited the website. Where's the information about the 100% pass rate? What is the national ranking of their FNP program when compared to

  7. NP "Glut" on the market

    ANPFNPGNP replied to dgclough's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    It's all due to supply and demand. Online programs are certainly contributing to an oversupply of NP's and this will affect both urban and rural areas - I'm currently seeing this in my area. I do...

  8. what are my ethical responsibilities?

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

    You're right, it takes a long time for the entire process to be completed. The DEA and Board of Medicine can't give out confidential information, but you would be surprised as to what is going on...

  9. Online program recommendations

    ANPFNPGNP replied to bhstarz's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I took 7 graduate hours online and transferred them to another program which had "block" times on campus. I obtained a post-graduate certification from another program and it was a "brick and mortar"...

  10. Online program recommendations

    ANPFNPGNP replied to bhstarz's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Disturbing and repugnant? Those are strange words to describe a comment made regarding online nursing programs (?). So, your preceptor had 10 students precept with him/her during a 25 year period...

  11. FNP salary

    ANPFNPGNP replied to ragincajun24's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    If I were you I would go the CRNA route. You will be guaranteed a high paying position. There are 2 excellent CRNA programs in Houston - UT Health Science Center and Baylor. The NP jobs in...

  12. what are my ethical responsibilities?

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

    You don't have a choice but to report this. If something happens and they find out you had knowledge of all of this, but didn't report it, then you are just as liable as they are! I don't know...

  13. new FNP, already burning out

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

    I contacted the Board of Nursing and told them about everything that I had witnessed. They told me to write everything down, including names, dates, etc. and report him. It's important to note that...

  14. I'm too old if my ultimate goal is to be a NP?

    ANPFNPGNP replied to greenland's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I graduated from a MSN program at the age of 45. Half the class was older than me and a couple of the students were in their early sixties. I seriously doubt you'll be the oldest in your class!...

  15. ACNP without acute care background

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

    I've seen folks with other degrees and no experience as a nurse do well in those programs. I don't know if this had an affect on their job prospects. I remember they had a tough time in clinicals,...

  16. Aesthetics

    ANPFNPGNP replied to emtneel's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Surprisingly, in TX a person doesn't even have to be a midlevel in order to perform these procedures. I know MA's who have been trained to administer botox injections. Yep, they're not even LVN's or...

  17. ER mid-levels - how to get along with MDs.....

    ANPFNPGNP replied to traumaRUs's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    That's pretty amazing. I guess I don't understand why they are willing to pay someone to do so little. Do they really think that midlevels are incompetent or do they just worry about losing their...

  18. Should I report doctor who yelled at me?

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

    I work for a ER staffing company and so does the doctor. I just found out that another NP is no longer allowed to work at that facility, because she "got into it" with this doctor. This company...

  19. Should I report doctor who yelled at me?

    ANPFNPGNP posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I just started a brand new position in the ER. I'm working in 4 different hospitals and up until last week, everything had been great. One of the hospitals pays a "bonus" on each patient that you...

  20. ER mid-levels - how to get along with MDs.....

    ANPFNPGNP replied to traumaRUs's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Good luck tonight - I'm right there with you! I'm filling in for someone tonight from 5-9. I'll get to work 1 hr with that doctor who yelled at me - please say a prayer for me! I found out that...

  21. ER mid-levels - how to get along with MDs.....

    ANPFNPGNP replied to traumaRUs's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I work for EmCare, but ECI used to have the contract at these hospitals until 2 years ago. I think the EmCare contract is up in 10/09, so we'll see what happens. I was told that ECI paid $15/hr less...

  22. ER mid-levels - how to get along with MDs.....

    ANPFNPGNP replied to traumaRUs's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    This is just amazing...what exactly do they want you to do?? I just posted a new thread asking advice on what to do about an ER doctor yelling at me the other day. I've been a NP for almost 4 years...

  23. I'm too old if my ultimate goal is to be a NP?

    ANPFNPGNP replied to greenland's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I graduated from NP school when I was 45 years old. About half the class was OLDER THAN ME! Trust me, age is not a factor

  24. 1 year, 2 years, or 3? or 5?

    ANPFNPGNP replied to westcoastgirl's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    It all depends on the job market. I just went to work in the ER and I was told that they only consider NP's who have 2 years of experience in a minor emergency/ER setting (RN experience is NOT...

  25. NP in neurosurgery group.

    ANPFNPGNP replied to kevagonia's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I must say that I'm shocked that you're being offered these types of jobs right out of school. I would think someone would have to work for years as an ACNP in neuro before being offered jobs like...
