No one has mentioned this, but check for a military clause in your contract. Generally your husband's orders will extend to you for purposes of employment and housing. I think you made a good choice and who knows when he'll PCS. Keep on doing you, y...

I think they are weeding out those who don't want to do the work to get into the program. The more requirements = the less amount of people will apply making it easier for them to choose. The question you need to ask is if you want to go to the univ...

It wouldn't actually let me make the group until I had a second person to invite. =/

It's "UW DNP Fall 2019 Cohort"

I hope everyone is having an awesome summer and fun time preparing for our start in September! Please PM me your e-mails and I will send an invite for our Fall 19 FB group. It'll come from "Ali Cia"

I got a call from FNP faculty as well (not the lead). She was very nice and extremely helpful. I'll be planning on working part time (approx. 20 hours) to hopefully avoid student loans. I'm in a few housing groups on facebook for the area. Do any of...

Heard anything yet? Do you have to pay money for the waitlist acceptance?

Just received an acceptance email to the FNP track!

I guess someone had made a 2019 post! It never came up in any of my previous searches. https://allnurses.com/university-washington-uw-dnp-t693530/?tab=comments#comment-7284176

Hello! I am not sure why, but your post only just showed up for me! There is another post that is also for the UW DNP 2019 applicants (newer). Anyway, I totally messed up the written portion of the interview (waaah). It was actually a technical erro...

Hello! I applied to the FNP track. I have no information about the process other than what I have read here and their website. I live in Florida so it would be a cross country move for me if accepted. I'm actually a bit wary of the NP profession righ...

Hello, In your experience, does a doctor need to specify in a discharge order whether to remove an IV line or telemetry? I always removed it unless specified otherwise, and have only discharged a patient once with an IV line in on purpose due to the ...

Hey nurses, I just need to vent a little. I'm not sure why this medication error is hitting me so hard as it isn't the first I've made and definitely not the last. I have never made the same type of error twice and this is no exception. I think I may...

Just so you know it is illegal for employers to discriminate against genetic information. Genetic Discrimination Also, Gov. Brewer vetoed the Arizona "discrimination" bill. Personally, people should be able to smoke on their own time and employer...

How are you supposed to perform tasks quicker while still performing them to maintain patient safety? Med errors happen when we are rushed, and then we start cutting corners! I would be up front with the patients about having a lot of tasks to comple...

Remember to always ask questions! Don't be afraid to bring another nurse in the room with you to check out a patient if you aren't sure. The patient and the other nurse will respect you more for it & you'll learn something new!

A CRNA is supervised by an anesthesiologist, but that doesn't mean the MD has to be in the room with the CRNA the whole time. An RN supervises the work of a CNA, but that doesn't mean the RN has to be in the room every time the CNA is getting vitals....

I never understand questions about weaknesses and "where will you be in 10 years?" If I were an interviewer I would know these questions are unfair and will almost never yield a truthful (truly) response. If I were to answer this question I would sa...

One thing I don't think anyone has asked is if you have a learning disability? Again, not trying to be rude and you do not need to answer this question on this board, but you repeat time and time again that you know the content and English is your fi...

Sending passing thoughts your way! I took mine today and got the "good" pop up. You will be a-okay. I feel Kaplan was well worth the $$ and knew pretty much everything on the test (maybe I just got lucky). My heart was pounding out of my chest at the...

The main things to remember with antibiotics: 1. Do NOT take with foods except cephalosporins and sulfonamides. Cephaplosporins take with MILK! 2. People on birth control need to use a barrier method. 3. Check for Penicillin allergy to any -cillin or...

I am the same way with the hotspot questions. From EVERYONE I have talked to they say the test is almost impossible to study for and I totally agree!! I have tried to retake some of the kaplan questions that I didn't know the first time around and gu...

This happens with my flats!! Haha! I haven't ever had danskos, but can you change the insoles in them every once in a while? I find its more the insoles, not the shoes that retain the stench.

I have been in the mid 60's on all the qtrainers (with qt7 my worst because I kind of gave up in the middle of it..I know that's bad!). I have a 64% avg on the qbank though! I feel as though I can't use the decision tree on a lot of the kaplan quest...

I just graduated this past December from a BSN program and I am 21 years old. I feel that we are going to be the new generation of nursing, and you starting out young in life is putting yourself at a great advantage. What do they believe is "life exp...
