1. NNAS experience?

   phosphorus replied to jmariel's topic in Nurse Registration

   That's what I figured. I did an accelerated BSN and despite their reassurances I worried without my prior BA they'd reject it. The hardest part is reaching the boards of nursing so far just to see how...

   phosphorus posted a topic in Advanced Practice

   I'm an NP in an FQHC. I had pegged some hopes on NHSC funding, but essentially all the area FQHCs have pretty low score and that seems like a long shot now. As far as I can tell for primary care many...

6. Anyone works at an Internal Medicine clinic?

   phosphorus replied to CocoaLoverFNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

   Expect to be slow when you're new. You'll get progressively better at your job and time per visit (if it's well organized) though I'd give it 1-2 yr. After a few months you'll get a groove. Utilize...

   phosphorus replied to Agriffin2's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

   I left Florida for similar reasons, but it's worth noting anyone in major urban areas in general tend to spent 6mo-1.5yr unemployed out of school. It took me 9 months to find a job in Miami, which...

8. Salary!?

    I applied for my CA license by endorsement from FL in January. I got my RN as expected ~3mo later without incident. The NP license was a nightmare with them allegedly losing the check, then saying...

    phosphorus replied to marinp's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I got an offer where they specify 5 days a month on call at 5$/hr and 60$/hr if I have to go in (wage around 50$/hr normally). Any tips for negotiating around that? Does that generally include when...

13. Florida Collaborative agreement if not treating

    phosphorus replied to phosphorus's topic in Advanced Practice

    Got confirmation from the board, you always need a collaborating physician. This leads me to suspect that there are agencies and NPs out there doing this type of work without following state...

14. Florida Collaborative agreement if not treating

    phosphorus posted a topic in Advanced Practice

    As I understand it, NPs must work under a collaborative agreement with a physician. I was contacted by an agency that does compensation type evaluations. They said that NPs don't generally need...
