  1. ER pain treatment after accident without ID on the person?

    AnnaN5 replied to aquestionhere's topic in Emergency

    I think she was referring to a discharge script for controlled substances. I have heard that being practice to not give scripts for controlled substances without

  2. Should I just go with this expensive college?

    AnnaN5 replied to KAThftf's topic in General Students

    You can not use your grandparents information if your mother claims you, even if you live with your grandparents. Much like even if you live independently if you are under 24 you still have to provide...

  3. NP clinical what to expect

    AnnaN5 replied to Ashley3H12's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    My first clinical course was focused on H&P's so we were expected to spend most of our hours doing that. I did my hours with a cardiology NP so spent a lot of time doing admission H&Ps and...

  4. PTO for CME?

    AnnaN5 replied to Packstudentfnp's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Unfortunately $1500 doesn't go far if you want to go to a major conference. The AANP yearly conference is around $700 plus additional fees for workshops. Adding in airfare, hotel, etc adds up. If you...

  5. PTO for CME?

    AnnaN5 replied to Packstudentfnp's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    My current position is $2000 and 5 days for CME plus 4 weeks PTO. My previous position was $3,000 and 5 days for CME plus 6 weeks PTO. Does your DEA/certification/licenses etc also come out of that...

  6. New NP-Negotiating a Salary

    AnnaN5 replied to PhillyFNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Did the offer of 86,500 include any incentive bonuses? I think that would make a big difference in the overall package. I recently made the switch to a family practice office with a similar salary but...

  7. Are people getting meaner, or am I just going soft?

    AnnaN5 replied to TakeTwoAspirin's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Had the same type of day earlier this week. Had a patient tell me "that's why I didn't want to see you, I wanted to see a real doctor" when I refused to give her narcotics. Told her I would gladly...

  8. Head to toe assessments?

  9. Insurance & Weight Loss Meds

    AnnaN5 replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I understand that but unfortunately insurance companies don't care so if they have that requirement they won't pay for any meds until it is completed. You have to figure out what rules they have or...

  10. Insurance & Weight Loss Meds

    AnnaN5 replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Have you called your insurance and find out what they do cover or look in the formulary? Contrave is a combo pill and Saxenda is an injection so your insurance may require other medications to be...

  11. Are you listed as a PCP?

    AnnaN5 replied to amalay's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am in Michigan. Have my own panel of patients, am listed in the chart as the PCP. We do not do incident to billing in our

  12. Jane Doe, RN, AAS, BSN, MSN, CCRN BFD

    AnnaN5 replied to Oceanpacific's topic in General Nursing

    I agree you should just list your highest degree and then your license. The license (RN) gets listed last because that is the only thing you can lose - at least that is the way I was always taught....

  13. Potential Nursing student in the dark

    AnnaN5 replied to Sweetcinna's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    All of those colleges require you to be licensed as an LPN or RN first because they only do bridge programs. They do not have programs (as far as I am aware) for people who do not have prior LPN or RN...

  14. Follow up after annual physical

    AnnaN5 replied to automotiveRN67's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    It can be a hard situation. I see the office's point of view. I recently made the switch to family practice so am seeing a lot of patient's new to our office. Many of them are "well controlled" on...

  15. Any HRSA 2015 Applicants?

    AnnaN5 replied to Sylvia_BSN's topic in General Nursing

    Mine is still under review What is the score of the facility you work

  16. Would you be willing to do this?

    AnnaN5 replied to CocoaLoverFNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Sounds like he is looking for someone to do the 500 AHA forms for free. I've recently made the switch from inpatient to outpatient setting so I'm not even sure what an AHA form is. I do not do a ton...

  18. What is your biggest struggle

    AnnaN5 replied to synaptic's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    My collaborating physician and I were just talking about the certification exams the other day. I mentioned that I was surprised that ANCC and AANP haven't moved towards re certifying by exam since...

  19. Working while getting my NP

    AnnaN5 replied to newbiepnp's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Do you know the breakdown of how many clinical hours you have to complete per semester? That would be helpful. We didn't have clinical the first semester so I continued to work full time. The other 3...

  20. Interview next week....UM/UR

    AnnaN5 replied to Caffeine_IV's topic in Case Management

    Sounds like you will be reviewing documentation to justify the DRGs and other codes being billed. Hospital I previously worked at had a similar position. These were also the people who would leave...

  21. Another "Find Your Own Preceptor" Thread

    AnnaN5 replied to Angeljho's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Unfortunately people should not pursue schools that provide no assistance in finding preceptors. I went to an in state school's hybrid program. We had topic feelers out for preceptors but they had a...

  22. Graduating with $15K in debt and they wont let me sit for boards :(

    AnnaN5 replied to kimmypeach's topic in Nursing Career

    Do you need the transcripts from the other school to send to the BON? I had a previous degree then graduated from an ADN program. Some of my credits transferred over to my ADN but I never had to send...

    AnnaN5 replied to traumaRUs's topic in Advanced Practice

  24. MSN then obtain FNP certification?

    AnnaN5 replied to ZooCrew10's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I agree to just do the FNP from the start. If you do a post masters FNP that will still require ~30ish credit hours and 500-700 clinical

  25. NP replacing RNs in ER?

    AnnaN5 replied to Matt8700's topic in Emergency

    I think it is more than just NPs not wanting to do bedside care. Would you expect the MD/DO/PA to be the provider and bedside caregiver for patients in the ED? No so why would anyone expect that of...
