    Blessedx3 replied to Mudwoman's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Blessedx3 replied to buster4's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I have attended Fitz-and have the life Hollier review on CD. They do compliment each other-but Fitz is much more in depth than Hollier. As the above poster noted--Fitz does warn against studying...

    Blessedx3 replied to yelnikmcwawa's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Carachel2-Your post about balance of home and school is one of the best I have seen. I too did the creative summer camps for my youngest (and jammed as many clinicals in as physically possible). I...

  8. Any info on University of South Alabama

    Blessedx3 replied to Live Well RN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Hey--I found it best to go personally to the site...and say "just a 4 hour observation"...so they don't think you need clinical time. Go ahead and line up your OB and Peds for spring-they are the...

    Blessedx3 replied to pedspnp's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    As a former school nurse for 1600 k-3rd graders...it was very hard to convince the administration to change. What was most frustrating were not the kids who got it once and the parents attended to...

    Blessedx3 replied to yelnikmcwawa's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I had a 3.9 for my BSN---with a previous degree in Statistics. I agree-grad school for NP is very different. We have the same textbooks as the MD students and it's crammed into a very short amount...

    Blessedx3 replied to firstyearRN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I was recently at a National Boards Review---the speaker said there is a movement to make all NP programs based around a core program of FNP--and then specialty beyond. Now who knows when and if that...
