  4. Moving Florida ARNP

    Cardiology EP NP replied to doodledome's topic in Advanced Practice

    Hi. Overall, I don't believe FL is the best place to work for APNs. The pay is generally exceptionally very low. It's also a right to work state which doesn't help. I've also heard that in some...

    Cardiology EP NP replied to Cardiology EP NP's topic in Advanced Practice

    Hi Annie, I actually don't work in EP Lab. I work in the EP Clinic. But I know that there are EP APNs who work in the Lab. I think those APNs assist with procedures such as pacemaker implants and...

  10. Cardiology NP

    Cardiology EP NP replied to icurn1988's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Hello. I have worked as a cardiology NP since 2009. I started out working at a university medical center as a staff nurse on a telemetry unit. During this time, I became acquainted with many of the...

  11. Best area for RN experience prior to becoming FNP

    Cardiology EP NP replied to Alwaysreading's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Well it really depends on what you want to do long-term as the previous poster had mentioned. If you want to do primary care then I would get more ED experience. If you want to work in cardiology then...

  12. BSN to NP: to wait or not wait

    Cardiology EP NP replied to Walker.Abb's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I think 1-2 years of experience is sufficient. There are so many basic things in nursing that are helpful when you get to NP school. Just knowing about all the drugs, various treatments, how to triage...

  13. NP or MD, Need some advice.

    Cardiology EP NP replied to 333344444's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I would have to agree that this is a very difficult decision. If you are young, then I would say, go the MD route, that way you will never regret your decision, wishing you had gone all the way and...

  14. NP Specialties?

    Cardiology EP NP replied to NickG's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am certified as an ANP and have certification as a CNS in cardiac health and disease management. I work at a large academic institution in the electrophysiology department. I am in clinic two days...

  15. NP vs. RN job satisfaction

    Cardiology EP NP replied to Sammi15's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    For me, it's a no brainer. I went back to school so I could work better hours, M-F, have more autonomy, and better working conditions and boy, did it pay off!! By leaps and bounds to say the least. My...

  16. Employment problems?

    Cardiology EP NP replied to HumptyDumpty's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    It took me about 8 months to find the right job. I agree with the other posters. Much of it depends on where you live. For me, it came down to my work experience. In IL, I agree that the pickins are...

  17. ANCC

    Cardiology EP NP replied to kellynp's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Which exam are you taking? ANP or FNP? I took the exam in December. I would echo other posters concerning the NP boards. Fitzgerald materals are helpful. I did do a lot of practice questions, which...

  18. First NP Job

    Cardiology EP NP replied to MissDoodaw's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am really enjoying my first NP job. I enjoy the autonomy and the appreciation from the patients and staff. As a staff nurse, I felt like such a peeon. I hate to say it but it's true. I was so tired...

  19. How did you pass the ANCC certification exam?

    Cardiology EP NP replied to beckyfnp's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I took the ANCC ANP exam. I studied using several different books including Fitz, Zerwekh (although it's kind of out dated) and the Leik book. I thought it was a fairly difficult exam and I felt...

  20. NP attire

    Cardiology EP NP replied to PansyKat's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I also wear business casual when I'm in the office. When I'm in clinic seeing patients, I wear business casual, with a lab

  21. Adult nursespractioner

    Cardiology EP NP replied to berta411's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I agree with the above poster. We really aren't supposed to discuss specific questions. I took the ANCC ANP exam and studying with the Fitzgerald materials did help. Good

  22. AANP Certification Exam

    Cardiology EP NP replied to Dixiecup's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Hi Dixiecup, So sorry to hear what happened. At least you know that you are not alone. I remember when I took the ANCC ANP exam, I was soooo stressed out and started to forget things while I was...

  23. in need of advise from cardiac NP

    Cardiology EP NP replied to Grnrn's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    It sounds like you are in the same boat I was in when I was in NP school. I decided to work on a CV step down unit. But, I think if you decided to work in telemetry or CCU, that would be just as...

  24. AANP Certfication Exam ( I failed it)

    Cardiology EP NP replied to ERandAestheticFNP's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    So sorry to hear what you have been through. I actually took the ANCC exam about 4 months ago. I did ok, but it was extremely difficult in that I also have a hard time with test taking. I have very...

  25. How does becoming an APN work as far as picking a specialty?

    Cardiology EP NP replied to curioustwo's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Most acute care programs require ICU experience. The school I graduated from also had that stipulation, which was one of the reasons I did not do the acute care program. I think some acute care...
