  3. DNP Project site needed ASAP

    DrCOVID replied to rninformatics's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    Yes I am at a DNP program, it's hybrid, mostly online which is a good setup. This is mostly about patient care anyway, and we have 1200 clinic hours (thank god) over years 2 and

  5. DNP Admission Essay Conundrum

    DrCOVID replied to blondenurse12's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    To be honest, your post to me is a conundrum; Why get a degree, pay for and spend 3 or more years of your life doing something you are not going to use? "Because I just want to finish..." LoL You do...

  6. DNP capstone (PMHNP)

    DrCOVID replied to DrCOVID's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    That's a really good idea, but the thing is there is no way to measure that. The clinic doesn't collect that type of data, and I'm not even sure how you would. You can't make someone take/use BC. As...

  7. DNP Project site needed ASAP

    DrCOVID replied to rninformatics's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    Wow... this is kinda interesting. Sounds like you want a very specific location... for us its' the opposite. You do a needs based assessment wherever you can get in to determine the project. Most of...

  8. DNP capstone (PMHNP)

    DrCOVID replied to DrCOVID's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Don't you usually check for learning by administering a test? ? Most of us are a little upset, since this is supposed to be a practice focused degree and we aren't focusing on providing patient care....

  9. DNP capstone (PMHNP)

    DrCOVID replied to DrCOVID's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Thanks for linking that I'm going to check it out. Well... in my city, the Universities are getting rid of the master's programs. Even if it isn't "mandatory," I can see it going that direction. I...

  10. Reporting homicidal patients

    DrCOVID posted a topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Hey everyone :) So I am in a PMHNP program and I am looking for some advice on an assignment. I need to answer this question regarding a patient that has expressed wishes to commit homicide. Before...

  11. UMB

    DrCOVID posted a topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Hello fellow nurses, I applied for the DNP program at UMB for Fall 18. Anyone know about the school? The school of nursing has good reviews. Some of the other stuff I hear is dissuading me from...

  12. Is getting your DNP worth it?

    DrCOVID replied to brookeg30's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    Setting all the digressions aside... It is completely worth it if you look at it from a wholistic perspective (ahhh nursing education); education is an investment in yourself and your future. It's...

  14. Help! Failed NCLEX five times, out of school for 9 years

    DrCOVID replied to cpmom's topic in Retired Nurses

    Dang... 7 year old thread but I guess it's popular so here we go: To all those trying and trying over and over, taking so many tries to pass - ask yourselves; if you were in a hospital, would you want...

  15. Occupational Health NP!!!

    DrCOVID replied to nursebetty24's topic in Advanced Practice

    Private care is patient/time based. I have heard so many providers talk about how money is all about how fast your turnover is. I have a friend that works in an opthamology clinic. One doc sees 1...

  16. Occupational Health NP!!!

    DrCOVID replied to nursebetty24's topic in Advanced Practice

    Why are people so suprised at an FNP making 150k? It likely has nothing to do with the state and is just the hours they are working. There are jobs where you can put in more hours which means more...

  17. Occupational Health NP!!!

    DrCOVID replied to nursebetty24's topic in Advanced Practice

    It's kinda hard to judge based on just the salary alone. What hours does the job entail? I guess OCH is 9-5? M-F? I would not accept that. I am at 80k as an RN with 7 years. Not taking less esp if I...

  18. Are you a nurse practitioner without any nursing experience?

    DrCOVID replied to bethymaester's topic in Advanced Practice

    I've read research regarding how provider dependent healthcare is. The healthcare outcome you recieve is completely dependent on where you go, and the providers you have. Think about it. Is any human...

  19. PROBATION

    DrCOVID replied to 1235's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    My state board publishes what licensees lose their license for quarterly. It is all case by case, but most of the people caught again breaking the law and they are already on probation end up with...

  20. Should I pursue DNP FNP?

    DrCOVID replied to jensfbay's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    That sentence.. lol It's worth it depending on what you want. If you want a change of lifestyle, a different job, more autonomy, more responsiibility, the ability to make more money, differnt hours,...

  21. Nursing school burnout

    DrCOVID replied to Nursestef2's topic in Health, Stress Management

    You need a break, have you talked to your counselors or the leadership at all? Ask for a change of assignment? I'd also recommend a therapist if you can afford it or talking with someone close you...

  22. Psychiatric NP

    DrCOVID replied to xtl311's topic in Advanced Practice

    Well, ever since I started an interest in NP route, I've been keeping my eye out for whenever I run into one to pick their brain or pay close attention to what they are doing. I've run into a handful...

  24. Lost nursing grad

    DrCOVID replied to rodibonilla1991's topic in Nursing Informatics

    For now you have to set aside your passion for informatics and focus your attention on passing NCLEX. You can't do any of it until you pass that examination. Yes its sorta stupid, to base competency...
