  1. CNS Preceptors for a Current Student In Oklahoma

    Hi everyone! I am a current CNS student at the University of Oklahoma-Tulsa campus, and I am searching high and low for preceptors that fit the specialty that I am interested in. I am interested in perioperative nursing and wound care. I have calle...
  2. SICK of BSN Pedestal

    Why would a more educated person get a better job? That's terrible. Sent from my iPhone using allnurses
  3. Quick tips on Combating the Commoditization of the nurse practitioner degree

    This is the best thing I have ever read. Thank you so much.
  4. ACNP - Job Opportunities and Long Term Viability

    With the ANCP, you will be able to do speciality clinics like ortho or cardio, ER/trauma, hospital inpatient, ICU, rehab units, or like my focus, urgent care. I do not want to have anything to do with any GYN stuff, and only peds when I have to, so ...
  5. Give me advanced patho advice!

    The class I took had modules you read through, and then if you had more questions, you could read the chapters, so maybe it's like that. My modules pretty much covered everything I needed, so after I figured that out, I didn't use the book much afte...
  6. Give me advanced patho advice!

    That's a heck of an 8 week course, but it can be done. The last three weeks of my 16 week one I just finished up were spent doing nothing... so I guess it can all be crammed in there. We had a case study/discussion board due each week and at least ...
  7. eating disorder recovery center

    Yeah, I would not mention that.
  8. Really dissapointed in myself

    I agree with the above advice. Let the teacher know what's up, and that you really do care about your grade. That usually goes a long way if the teacher knows you are making a good effort. Also, a B is not the worst thing in the world. I used to ...
  9. I have enough problems finding preceptors, and I go to an brick and mortar, with an online format. I am out of state, and it has been impossible to secure any contracts with any of the hospital systems in the state, except for one out in the middle ...
  10. What do you love about your DNP progran?

    My program seems to take care of me :) Everyone seems invested in my education, and truly concerned if I am having a problem with the coursework/preceptors/whatever. I was so scared when I set out to do the DNP thing, because I was not sure if I wou...
  11. University of Arkansas Fayetteville DNP

    I know this is an old thread, but I wanted to comment, for anyone that may see this post in the future :) I am in the first class of this program, that started last fall. I have found this program to be very organized, and the professors/advisors s...
  12. What was your clinical experience like?

    My clinicals have been awesome (except for the first couple of days when I was stuck with a complete quack that didn't see any patients and just had me sit there and told me weird stories all day, but that story is for another time). My preceptor, ...
  13. What is/was your job going through grad school?

    I am the clinical staff nurse for an outpatient surgery clinic 8-5, M-F, and I fully intend for this to be my job throughout school. I was able to keep this job throughout my MSN in Admin/Management, and since I am doing the ACNP track, with a focus...
  14. How does your program verify clinical hrs?

    We use Typhon, as well. My hours so far have all been at an urgent care, so I have not had to worry about logging lunch breaks or anything. I log the actual time I was @ the facility, and them I also log the actual time I was in the room with the p...
  15. CNS Preceptors for a Current Student In Oklahoma

    I would definitely be interested in meeting with you for the upcoming semester. I am still in the search for someone to work with this spring. Thank you so much for your response!
  16. Calling all current cns students

    I attend University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center-Tulsa branch.
  17. Calling all current cns students

    Hello everyone! I am a current CNS student. Just wanted to day hi!
  18. I would personally do the doctor's office position, but that is only because I work in one now, and know how much less it sucks than working in a hospital.
  19. Strange encounter at flu shot clinic

    I would not have even thought that that would be an option for her to give the shots herself. I would have just said "absolutely not". That is nonsense.
  20. Please help me LPN's or former LPN's...

    1. how long were you or have you been an lpn? i was an lpn for eight years. 2. where did you attend school? baptist health school of nursing. 3. where did you or do you currently practice and in what area of nursing? i did med surg, adult psych, ado...

  22. LPN instead of RN?

    For me, I was not sure that I wanted to be an RN until I was an LPN. It was also a lot easier to get the prerequisites needed to start the LPN program than the RN program. I was able to work as an LPN while competing the RN program, and I feel that...
  23. What is nursing coming to?

    That sounds like nursing was 8 years ago when I started out, except that I would have cried tears of JOY if I only had four patients on the med surg floor I worked on.
  24. Offensive Nursing Behavior

    I agree that this is abuse. She needs to be fired. She has no business working with ANYONE, much less those with dementia, who require a lot of time and patience.
  25. Mandatory Overtime-- what do you think?

    I would not do that. Ever. I would find another job before I let someone tell me I have to work overtime. Sounds like the facility needs to work on training and retaining more nurses, instead of running off the ones they have left.
