  1. Who Runs Your Operating Room?

    msn10 posted a topic in Operating Room

    To all you OR nurses and CRNA's; There has been a bit of a debate in some of our hospitals in town as to who should be running the show. As you know, the OR can be the busiest place in the hospital...

  2. 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...

  3. 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...

    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...

  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

    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...

  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

    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...

  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

    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...

  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 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...

  9. 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...

  10. DNP Fluff

    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...

  12. 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...

  13. 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...

  14. 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...

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

    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

  16. 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...

  17. Who says nurses can't be scholars?

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

    First of all, thank you so much for being a preceptor! It is one of the most vital components to a new graduate's success. As for you comment about being scholarly, I completely agree with you. I work...

  18. DNP Fluff

    msn10 replied to Malenurse1235954's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    You think a NP should have more than 2 semesters? You don't prescribe nearly as many meds as a physician does and again, pharm should be in every clinical course an NP has. We have threads in our...

  19. DNP Fluff

    msn10 replied to Malenurse1235954's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    It seems everyone here is so focused on pharm courses. A physician usually only has one year of pharm. Why don't they have more? Because like nurses, they get pharm experience in every clinical they...

    msn10 replied to Malenurse1235954's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    You design your capstone based on the specialty you want to pursue. Many are very clinical in nature. Ones my friends or colleagues have been a part of (I am not a capstone advisor): Provider...

    msn10 replied to Malenurse1235954's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    You are right, but neither is a PA. A PhD is a research degree. A DNP is a clinical practice

  22. DNP Fluff

    msn10 replied to Malenurse1235954's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    Way out of line. Every single MSN and NP knows what an IRB is and so do the majority of BSN's. That is a ridiculous statement. Of course you can, That is your weakest argument. Notwithstanding the...

  23. Why Can Pre-Med Students Know Their Choice But Nursing Students "Can't"?

    msn10 replied to Shookclays's topic in General Nursing

    Well good luck. I was there during teaching during the Ministry phase and I really liked it up

  24. Why Can Pre-Med Students Know Their Choice But Nursing Students "Can't"?

    msn10 replied to Shookclays's topic in General Nursing

    How is that place doing now? It has had a rough couple of years with all the

    msn10 replied to Malenurse1235954's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    CraigB-RN Don't take my word for it, there was a nice presentation done at Columbia by a PA who got a PhD. This PA talks about the lack of PA research and the lack of translating research into...
