  1. horror stories--are they true?

    Sheri FNP-C replied to NPs4health's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I think it depends on what you call a horror story. I graduate in May and am scared to death at the lack of jobs. I will be giving up 8 wks paid time off and over $70,000 annual salary if I worked...

  2. Salary info?

    Sheri FNP-C replied to jeepgirl's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Did you check Salary.com? For my geographical area (which is saturated with NPs resulting in a relatively low salary) it is pretty accurate. In upstate NY the starting NP salary seems to be...

  3. Direct-Entry Programs with Neonatal Speciality

    Sheri FNP-C replied to AfterTheStork's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

  6. GPA on NP resume??

    Sheri FNP-C replied to CaseAlum's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I just created my new resume and I did put GPA on there. I had a 3.99 in my AAS and BSN programs which I really wanted to list. I only have a 3.68 in my MS program, but without listing it it looked...

  7. Just curious.. will I get a pay cut as an NP

    Sheri FNP-C replied to tammyg652's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I WILL take a pay cut to become an NP. This has always been my dream, so the pay is not important. I like the idea of non-rotating shifts and being home Christmas and Thanksgiving every year! I...

  8. Experience with Distance Ed NP programs

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

    I will graduate in May from a distance ed program with my FNP. I feel 100% capable of safely caring for patients in primary care. My distance ed program requires more than double the number of...
