    Bedside Nurse Practitioners

    matthewandrew posted a topic in Advanced Practice

    So this is just a thought... like many potential great ideas... But just imagine a new advanced practice speciality, a bedside clinician acting as a registered nurse AND a nurse practitioner, the...

    DNP-Prepared Generalist APRNs

    matthewandrew posted a topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    DNP-Prepared Generalist APRNs

    matthewandrew replied to matthewandrew's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    DNP-Prepared Generalist APRNs

    matthewandrew replied to matthewandrew's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    UCLA MSN Fall 2014

    matthewandrew replied to lovepeacelove's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Do employers look at what Nursing Program you went to?

    matthewandrew replied to HappyBee's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Does that 100k include an MD or PharmD as well? Sound like you're getting played by a for-profit business. Please be very cautious in taking on so much debt. Work harder and try to gain admission in a...
