1. Should the title "CRNA" be rebranded?

   msn10 replied to Openairway's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

   Simply because MD's (all of them) go to medical school and CRNA's go to nursing school, not just for their undergrad, but the CRNA graduate education is done in a nursing college. The title...

2. DNP Fluff

   msn10 replied to Malenurse1235954's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

   The entire point of a DNP is to translate the research, not actually do the research. Some DNP's do, in fact, lead research projects, but the degree was meant to have a deeper understanding of...

3. DNP Fluff

   msn10 replied to Malenurse1235954's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

   I am not a huge fan of theory, but Nightingale was really a rock star. Just wasn't her theories, she was a master statistician and mathematician and she worked her tail off at Crimea. Some of the...

4. The Decline of Physicians: Do we really need them anymore in Primary Care?

   msn10 replied to AAC.271's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

   Bedside nurses have gone through quite a bit of training in many places as preceptors. My job before this one was creating preceptor workshops and nurse residency courses and I trained nurses all over...

5. The Decline of Physicians: Do we really need them anymore in Primary Care?

   msn10 replied to AAC.271's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

   NP schools are a lot more than you are giving them credit for. There are variances in school quality, but your sweeping statements are factless. I have seen a lot more physicians in favor of NP's than...

6. The Decline of Physicians: Do we really need them anymore in Primary Care?

   msn10 replied to AAC.271's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

   Because my work and research in conflict management tells me otherwise. Are there people that do both? Sure. However, many people who do not like to speak up at work do so on these threads. If...

7. The Decline of Physicians: Do we really need them anymore in Primary Care?

   msn10 replied to AAC.271's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

   I was just having a discussion today about the NP curriculum. This thread had me interested in asking. The NP's that I work and teach with said they would favor another pharm, but more of a pharm...

8. The Decline of Physicians: Do we really need them anymore in Primary Care?

   msn10 replied to AAC.271's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

   I don't want to speak for FNP, but from my point of view, I will talk about my experience in both academia and in practice. There are a number of people on Allnurses in general who use their own lived...

   msn10 replied to Malenurse1235954's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

   There are nursing programs that learn right along physicians as well, but neither is the same. CIM Good Doctors and Nurses - Johns Hopkins Center for Innovative Medicine Again, you are giving a lot...

    msn10 replied to Malenurse1235954's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    I totally agree with you there. Nobody, Imho, should be allowed into an NP without experience, but PA's graduate without experience too. Be careful what you wish for. We can change internally, the...

11. I WOULD NOT recommend Brookdale

    msn10 replied to Slyder's topic in School, College Programs

    Get over myself? I have a responsibility to make sure my students don't kill anyone. You are missing the point. It is not about credit, it is about understanding simple algebra which I am sure you...

12. I WOULD NOT recommend Brookdale

    msn10 replied to Slyder's topic in School, College Programs

    I require my students to do this "without credit" and without a calculator. If they cannot do simple algebra, then they should not be in the nursing program. I have 2 children in college, I hope for...

13. DNP Fluff

    msn10 replied to Malenurse1235954's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    If that is your main source of research, then that is a significant problem. And this thread is about DNP's, all of which have extensive education in research. Unlike a PhD they do not carry out a...

    msn10 replied to AAC.271's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Do you have a preceptor program for NPs? I know they are starting a couple in community and rural

15. Who says nurses can't be scholars?

    msn10 replied to Neuro Guy NP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Again, biochem and physiology is given in undergrad but has no bearing on scholarly work. You have made it sound on more than one thread that you have quite the disdain for nursing education, but...
