  1. Doctoral degree to become an NP???

    Dr. Tammy, FNP/GNP-C replied to VickyRN's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    That's the entire point guised in consumer protection. The point of this refuse is not to ensure that consumers are aware of the role--not title of every health care provider, but to make a...

  2. Doctoral degree to become an NP???

    Dr. Tammy, FNP/GNP-C replied to VickyRN's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    So I guess you don't know of any such studies. I do agree with you, however, in that it is quite arrogant for physicians to claim comparable care to NP's when no such studies exist to support this...

  3. FNP program at University of southern indiana

    Dr. Tammy, FNP/GNP-C replied to PRIMESTAR1's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I know what you mean. It made very little sense going into the deal as I wanted a local ER PA to precept me. Trust me, you want to get dialed in with a good FNP mentor in the family practice...

  4. Doctoral degree to become an NP???

    Dr. Tammy, FNP/GNP-C replied to VickyRN's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    again, i'll remind you of what you said, as it might appear you are having a tough time keeping up. first, this was introduced back in 2007 and there is no evidence whatsoever that this will ever...

  5. Doctoral degree to become an NP???

    Dr. Tammy, FNP/GNP-C replied to VickyRN's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    I suppose if there were any truth whatsoever to support this lie, you would have cited and referenced. In the 20 years I have directly cared for, ran buisnesses that have provided care for or...

  6. FNP program at University of southern indiana

    Dr. Tammy, FNP/GNP-C replied to PRIMESTAR1's topic in Post Graduate Students

    And I'm on faculty with them too! No, but the RN-BSN faculty are top of the line people in all regards and most people have not had the same problems I had there. Hook up early with Dr. Hall and...

  8. FNP program at University of southern indiana

    Dr. Tammy, FNP/GNP-C replied to PRIMESTAR1's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

  9. FNP program at University of southern indiana

    Dr. Tammy, FNP/GNP-C replied to PRIMESTAR1's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Congrats. You are going to really enjoy USI. ISU? Well, the RN-BSN program is great, but in retrospect I am very happy with my transfer to USI. The freindly nature of faculty in the MSN program...

    Dr. Tammy, FNP/GNP-C replied to VickyRN's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    Hey congrats on your DNP matriculation. I look forward to starting my DNP program this fall, too. I too am sensing an intense form of behavior from others on this post that just makes me feel that...

  11. US News Rankings

    Dr. Tammy, FNP/GNP-C replied to jnd1213's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Good point. I for one would never not hire someone from Vanderbilt just because the school might have a horrible reputation. Everyone needs to be judged on their own merits. As far as the direct...

  12. US News Rankings

    Dr. Tammy, FNP/GNP-C replied to jnd1213's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I didn't know that about Vanderbilt. So they take people who are RN's and people who have never touched a patient before in the same class and turn them into NP's in the same amount of time? Do they...

  16. US News Rankings

    Dr. Tammy, FNP/GNP-C replied to jnd1213's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I saw and read about that regarding Vanderbilt on another post. That's sad when some people tend to disparage all program graduates, cast aspersions on the quality of an entire program and generalize...

    Dr. Tammy, FNP/GNP-C replied to jnd1213's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    You might want to check out University of Southern Indiana. Less than $10K for everything. Pay as you go--no debt when you graduate. 100% pass rate on boards. Not even ranked in the top 100 by The US...

  18. Captain of the Ship doctrine and NPs.

    Dr. Tammy, FNP/GNP-C replied to cessnadriver's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Just curious. If a hospital refuses admitting privileges in an independent state, would the APN have a legitimate claim related to restraint of trade

  19. Experience with Distance Ed NP programs

    Dr. Tammy, FNP/GNP-C replied to Dr. Tammy, FNP/GNP-C's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    The Pearson Report (2008) provides that NP's are regulated in NC jointly by the BoN and BoM. "Registration means authorization by the BOM and BON for an RN to use the title NP. The BOM appoints and...

  24. discussion regarding education of NP (DNP) and PA compared to MD/DO

    Dr. Tammy, FNP/GNP-C replied to RN to Medschool's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Since NP's are not physicians, exactly where do NP's lay in the middle? Identify one state in the US where a PA may work independent of a physician. Please let me know if you need a list of...
