    AutoRotate replied to adventure_rn's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    It seems to me that most of the NP students I meet are going to "Walden" or "South University" which I've never heard of before now. Are these the new University of Phoenix or Southern New Hampshire...

  2. DNP: Mirroring the Path of DO?

    AutoRotate replied to AF2BSN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Yes, the course of study should be more difficult for NPs. A minimum number of years as a RN should be required to apply to schools. Residencies should be completed as well as a higher minimum...

    AutoRotate replied to Freckledkorican's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    AutoRotate replied to malenurse03's topic in Emergency

  5. Anyone know of an Online US IV Class

    AutoRotate replied to BiscuitStripes's topic in Emergency

    The Youtube vids are OK for learning the basics behind what the machine does for you and what you're seeing. What you really need is someone who has a lot of experience with the US to show you their...

  7. CEN and then CCRN

    AutoRotate replied to Lev's topic in Emergency

    I'm pretty sure that you need something like 1000 hours of ED time before you can sit for CEN. Maybe go TNCC, then CEN, then

    AutoRotate replied to Bruce_Wayne's topic in Men in Nursing

  10. Accelerated programs...expensive or cheap?

    AutoRotate replied to johninalameda's topic in Male Nursing Students

    "If I wanted to spend 8 years in college, plus spend at least a couple years getting experience I would expect to make a LOT, LOT more than $100K." This is the statement to which I was referring, not...

  11. Accelerated programs...expensive or cheap?

    AutoRotate replied to johninalameda's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Perhaps the people who are going for the NP want to do so for the increased responsibility and independence that comes with the title, or the future earning potential of the degree. I'll also go...

  12. RN with BSN and feeling stupid

    AutoRotate replied to trueblue2000's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    AutoRotate replied to fridgelight's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    You can check to see if the state in which you'd like to work is a "compact" state (Compact meaning agreement, not stature). Compact states have an agreement to allow a nurse with a license from...

  14. Passed Nclex rn in August, still no job

    AutoRotate replied to oztizz184's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

  15. RN with BSN and feeling stupid

    AutoRotate replied to trueblue2000's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

  17. Accelerated programs...expensive or cheap?

    AutoRotate replied to johninalameda's topic in Male Nursing Students

    AutoRotate replied to lesliehaynes0625's topic in Government, Military

  20. A Lot of Flight Nursing Jobs

    AutoRotate replied to Rio's topic in Flight, Surface Transport

    I don't really have "a dog in this fight," so to say, but I can back up what phlegm was saying about the 206. I am commercial and instrument rated (did all of my hours in that aircraft) and can say...

  22. Best Branch for Military Nursing?

    AutoRotate replied to Jennifer22's topic in Government, Military

    While the experiences given here are applicable to the military in general, they are not accurate accounts of life as an officer, let alone a medical specialty officer. I would never put down...

  23. USD MEPN Interview tips??

    AutoRotate replied to AvaRN22's topic in Post Graduate Students

  24. Nursing as a second career...am I doomed

    AutoRotate replied to TryingToFindAWay's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I felt like I was in a similar situation. I graduated with a 2.9, but nearly all of the schools said that they required a 3.0 or 3.5. When I actually talked to them, they said that those were not...
