  1. FNP exam review

    Is there a study guide on CD that you recommend? I am going to a distance FNP program and thought I might get some audio digest sort of things for the long car trips! Also, has anyone used Kindle?...
  2. ArkFan: I wont give you a rash of crap, but I do disagree with some of your thoughts. I hear a lot of anti DNP stuff all the time, and I just don't understand where it is all coming from. I do think...
  3. Mommyhood and Grad School

    I have had Moms on my parenting board chastize me for "letting strangers raise the kids" or neglecting them, but I've never had someone say it to my face. Honestly, that is SO unbelievably rude it...
  4. I think in depends entirely upon the student. My BFF went to an Ivy League school for ACNP, worked 36h a week, raised 3 kids as a single mom, was the brownie troop leader and had numerous other...
  5. "I have to disagree with the above post that everyone is accepted." I wasn't trying to give anyone misinformation. Merely relaying information given to me by whomever that ws that answered the phone...
  6. Academic letter of recommendation

    I was cautioned against using physicians for LOR at all for grad school apps, rationale being they want to hear what NURSES think of you. I was told that physician letters of rec to a nursing school...
  7. Academic letter of recommendation

    Start with someone who actually knew you, of course. If they have moved on speak to the current Dean. Perhaps she can access your records and write something based on
  8. A thread for those awaiting decisions...

    tammy, are you moving? if so, i'd say duke b/c i have been to b-more and i wouldn't go back willingly! did you get tomeet any faculty or did you phone interview both places? try to speak to...
  9. English as Second Language Students

    I am teaching allied health to highschool students, so it is a bit different. I have an ESL student and no, I am not allowed to fail her. I have to remediate her over and over until she passes. I...
  10. Tht sounds about right. At the state uni where I interviewed for a clinical instructor position, it was very much the same as you describe. BSN with 30 continuing education units in nursing...
  11. Nurse Practitioner Salaries by State?

    And here (Southern midatlantic region) FNPs are making 60k. I'm sure it is twice that in
  12. Chronic pain medication notice

    I am not n NP, I am a NP wannabe. In my area the NPs have not posted signs, but the word has gotten around that they will not treat chronic pain. Get your collaborating doc on board and just refer...
  13. What to specialize in for DNP?

    Oops, sorry for serial posting. If you want to do obstetrics, you need CNM. There are many distance programs that will allow you to study and test in both WHNP and CNM. Frontier for
  14. What to specialize in for DNP?

    Yes. If you are sure that womens heath with infertility issues in particular are what you want to do, WHNP is the course of study for you. You should read the practice act and talk to some WHNP...
  15. I have been teaching the same program for three years. The hardest part is dealing with some of the attitude problems one encounters with teens, and of course, parents. My program is coupled with the...

    An engraved high quality
  17. It is threatening to people to hear the profession they are in is not "good enough" for someone else. It isn't unique to nursing either. I am sure it isn't personal. I got a lot of grief from co...
  18. What to specialize in for DNP?

    I think you need to find a school that has a womens health NP option. There are many with distance programs. Failing that, I'd do CNM. Adult is closest on that list, but I don't think the scope of...
  19. A thread for those awaiting decisions...

    Fab1, I was accepted too. Email me at [email protected]. I have a great suggestion for a place to stay for July
  20. I don't think you need to be nervous. I was told they automatically take everyone that meets the minimum requirements. The only reason you would require review is if you fell under those, and then...
