  1. NP protocols

    Gator FNP replied to ILoveIceCream's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I do not see my protocol as limiting, it is between your supervising MD and you so whatever you are comfortable with can be in the protocol. It also can be changed at any time. I think a sample is...

  2. Nurse Practitioner in Sports Medicine?

    Gator FNP replied to jensfbay's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

  4. NP or PA for ER w/ some primary practice

    Gator FNP replied to Bird1987's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Gator FNP replied to JazzyRN's topic in Post Graduate Students

  8. Epocretes

    Gator FNP replied to cruisin_woodward's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I have Epocrates for 2 years now. I have the version with dx, labs, symptoms. I find it very useful, it keeps me up to date on medications, disease processes, new treatments. What I find very useful...

  9. Good/bad idea for new grad FNP to specialize?

    Gator FNP replied to abcdefg's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I would suggest a primary care office for experience. You will see everything from children to geriatrics. It will give you a good base on which to build. Do this for at least one year and then you...
