  7. Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner

    Thanks for the replies! I don't know if I can get over this aversion - I have children and I could change their diapers all day long, but I literally gag if it's anyone else, including my own nephew....
  8. Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner

    Are you saying that as a direct entry student I would have to give a patient an enema? I can say with almost 100% certainty that I would not be able to do that...I don't know where to go from here. I...
  9. Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner

    Thank you for the replies! The school that I am thinking of applying to (applied last year and was waitlisted) is a 3 year program, so the first 2 are devoted to the BSN - not sure I can handle that...
  10. Psych nurse practitioner

    Viola900, would you mind talking about why nursing school was a terrible experience for you? I ask because I am contemplating pursuing an NP program but have no nursing or medical experience, and am...
  11. Psych nurse practitioner

    Can anyone give insight as to the need for/compensation for psych NPs in the Boston area? Thank
  12. I foolishly took the GRE tonight with absolutely no preparation, not because I was confident that I would do well, but because I truly haven't had the time, so rather than cancel my test, I thought...

    Congratulations to all of you who have been accepted to Regis! It would be great for those of us who are still in the application process if you could let us (me!) know your statistcs...I took the GRE...

  18. Massachusetts NP Salary

    Hello, I am applying to nurse practitioner programs and trying to find out the salary and benefits being offered in this part of the country (Massachusetts), especially for psychiatric nurse...
  19. Massachusetts NP Salary

    Thanks again for replying - the fact that you get to make your own schedule is huge for me - I am a stay-home mother with young kids and would love to be able to still be there for there for special...
  20. Massachusetts NP Salary

    Bonosgrrl, thank you for the reply. I'm a little surprised, though - $40 an hour seems more in line with RN salary, not NP salary (or so I thought?) While there are certainly other important things...
  21. Regis College in MA

    Hi everyone, I applied into just one direct entry NP program - Boston College, mainly because it is only 2 years long, but also because I love BC and the school had a great reputation. However, my...
  22. Regis College in MA

    Hi Jennifer, Can you tell me if you are in classes/clinicals 5 days per week, or is there some flexibility in your schedule? Are you in the hospital for an entire day, or just a portion of the day?...
  23. Regis College in MA

    Thank you for the response, Jennifer! I actually spoke with an admission person at Regis, and she said the same thing you said - 1000 for the GRE. My problem is that I took the test without preparing...
  24. Regis College in MA

    Anyone?
  25. Regis College in MA

    I can't take the GRE again because the application deadline was Nov 1 - I took the GRE Oct 29. They seem pretty strict with their deadlines, and even if I tried to study and take the test again, there...
