  1. Central Cali Childrens

    Can you say which company you are using or PM me? I am looking at CA and would love to go to a children's hospital (so i won't be forced to float to adult med/surg) i only do Peds primarily with low...
  2. I am a new graduate and I do plan on doing this. I think if you committed a little longer for an assignment say 6mo vs. 3mo. then they won't mind training you a bit. Anyways, I am probably doing a...
  3. left stranded by last minute contract canceled

    I have not travelled before but i plan on getting the $100 nso malpractice ins. I'm sure if you have this ins. which provides you a lawyer to stand up for you! that could
  4. speciality post graduation

    I am a FNP and my first job as a new grad was at a Peds hospital doing pre-op assessments for anesthesia. It is interesting and you do have to use your brain a lot! But also different field than i...
  5. Travel Assignment to Cali

    A lot of agencies have told me they don't have jobs for more than 1 month out. I think June is wayyyy to far in advance. i would apply for your CA license and be ready then you can apply in april/may...
  6. NPs, do you know if this is true?

    OKay but then you got this issue... the whole reason I want to work as a RN for a few months is because it will take time to apply and get a FNP license in that state, so if you aren't licensed as a...
  7. NPs, do you know if this is true?

    okay well that is what we should be doing as a RN as well? I don't see how that is holding a NP to a higher standard. I guess what I am getting at is, if I work as a RN (which i did for several months...
  8. NPs, do you know if this is true?

    Another thing is this, why this seems confusing to me, and why i would like some proof. If you are employeed as a RN you are not allowed to work outside your scope of practice. So why would I be held...
  9. NPs, do you know if this is true?

    I'm still not sure what this means 100%. So does it mean if the BP is 200/100 I have to not only call the doctor but tell him what I think as a FNP should be done? What medicine to prescribe?...
  10. NPs, do you know if this is true?

    oh...okay.. so buying the $100 nso insurance for travelling won't cut it? I have pay the $1300 for private FNP insurance as a travel nurse even though i won't be treating pts as a FNP, no diagnosing,...
  11. Did you go to UM for nursing school? I graduated UM 05 and got offered 2 jobs at JMH on in Peds ER and one in Adult ER. I still miss the fact that i have no ER experience. I moved back to Colorado...
  12. New job offer help please

    I don't think many care about your experience as a RN. Most interviews i have had for NP care more about your clinical experiences.. My experience as a Peds RN did help me get a job in a Peds...
  13. NPs, do you know if this is true?

    my friend just told me this yesterday, because i am a new grad NP and might do some travel nursing as a RN, and was just telling me to be careful. She is in a masters program and is taking a legal...
  14. i am thinking of doing travelling as a RN for maybe a yr to pay off my student loans. I've been talking to some people and a girl said i could probably pay them off in 6mo. but i'm only Pediatrics (or...
  15. So you are doing Peds at IHS? that's cool. i looked briefly, not sure if they take new grads. one said 2 yrs exp. i think.. anyways, something to look into. Thanks!! at this point i'm open to any and...
  16. Quick FNP/PNP Question

    At my school, EVERYONE had to take assessment class and do prostate exams on a human that got paid to let people do that.... Even this one lady who was doing Psych NP and NEVER touches patients HAD to...
  17. Quick FNP/PNP Question

    Another thing is this. As a FNP I seriously doubt anyone would go back to get a PNP degree. But as a PNP you may seriously consider going back for FNP.... It also depends on where you live. In...
  18. Quick FNP/PNP Question

    I won't argue with you but I will say this, the school I went to is the #1 PNP school in the US, so yes, it probably has a better Peds focus, it is also #6 for FNP. Many schools i know allow you to...
  19. Do you have to sign a 2 yr contract with IHS? I just got done with a 2 yr contract with NELRP, which i could work in certain areas that qualified. I kinda don't wanna sign any contracts for that...
  20. Can you PM me and i will give you my email? to send me the links.
  21. Quick FNP/PNP Question

    I am new grad FNP and I have had no problem getting interviews and job offers for PNP geared jobs. I did FNP to be more marketable, and I like the variety, but If i am truthful, i really like working...
  22. new FNP, already burning out

    my first job is in the inpatient hospital, and the more i realize that although i know NPs are supposed to fill that primary care need, you are expected to work your guts out and do it for minimal...
  23. Interview Scheduled

    Yes, i would see if you can get paid hourly. Often times you can elect not to receive health ins.but the benefit you get is not really worth it. Anyways, would also find out if they accept patients...
  24. new FNP, already burning out

    Oh my gosh, that is sad... i am in the south making same as you, it is an inpatient position, i only do H and short P, and i'm lucky if i see 10 pts/day some days its like 5pts.. and some days we...
  25. job opportunities

    you can always move on!! But think of the good points, you have all that experience now to put on your resume! its all a learning experience! But it helps when we can learn from others, such as...
