Lol my pic has always been the same. Thanks for the info tho. I'm quite autonomous currently at my tertiary care facility, working nights with no physician there, taking call for our team's 80 pts and...
Hey all - Do any of you have insight into the day to day life of a provider working in a critical access facility (rural/regional facility with less than 25 beds)? What do you wish you had there that...
Hi all- I am 2 years post graduation from an Acute Care NP program, working as a Hospitalist outside of Colorado. I have 4 years of RN experience before that. What will it take to be able to get Full...
Either way. Ultimately, I'd just like to know if I were to accept an NP position in Colorado, would my past experiences allow me full practice authority for prescribing. Thank you in advance,...
Hey everyone! This thread is for all of those out there who are planning on applying to one of Vanderbilt's MSN programs for Fall 2013. I'm starting to get my application packet together. I...
I emailed L.B., who does the clinical placement, and she said that an updated immunization card and/or titer results will suffice for the clinical requirements. Good news for a lot of us. 5 months...
Tons of new grad NP jobs out there. I have the Indeed.com app. I just typed in 'New Grad Nurse Practitioner' and right now I am getting 1,759 results. Now of course location, specialty, and salary are...

I've got everything ready to submit. No hurry though. I want to keep revising my interview survey questions. We still have 2 months until the priority deadline. You don't get a special tuition...

Check with other RNs, including your charge nurse. You will learn when and when not to call and what the MDs need to know at 3am and what can wait until morning through more and more experiences like...
Yes. You can start and/or finish and submit your application without having submitted your GRE score. Same goes for the transcripts. Each just needs to be submitted prior to the priority deadline for...
I've already submitted my transcripts and GRE score. I am waiting on the application to open up online so that the recommendation letters can easily be submitted online. I'm still working on the...

An hour later was discharged? We'd keep him on a gtt and put him on PO before taking him off the gtt then home eventually on PO. Did he go home on cardizem or metoprolol

Pt walked onto your floor with that HR? Not on a stretcher? Wow. Lucky he didn't collapse with that HR and then fall and bleed (just guessing this is a history of a fib and he's on Coumadin or...
