  1. Women's Health vs Family NP

    nomadcrna replied to khmora's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Don't forget. The consensus model means nothing unless EACH state passes it. My state is passing most of it but seeing as FNPs cover many rural ERs and inpatient care, they are choosing their wording...

  2. Women's Health vs Family NP

    nomadcrna replied to khmora's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Ok really, so peer reviewed scientific studies are not facts? Ok then. I'm

  3. Women's Health vs Family NP

    nomadcrna replied to khmora's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Is your grad school not teaching you properly? Seriously, it is a valid study. Find something to refute it. Even ACOG is pro FP perinatal

  4. Women's Health vs Family NP

    nomadcrna replied to khmora's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Well the peer reviewed studies say that the FPs have as good of outcomes as OBs do. Those are the facts. You should know that YOUR anecdotal "life experiences" mean nothing. Sorry, those are the...

  5. Women's Health vs Family NP

    nomadcrna replied to khmora's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Ok, post some evidenced based medicine that says that they should not do "it". Once again, you should educate yourself on what evidenced based medicine is. We base our whole practice on it. If the...

  6. OR experience for a surgical NP?

    nomadcrna replied to whomiskim's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Yep, Texas is far behind and very restrictive. If you notice, I said "in my states". I hold licenses as a CRNA and FNP in Texas and I refuse to practice there until things

  7. AANA (NON) membership anyone?

    nomadcrna replied to ruler of kolob's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Come on, be a scientist. Don't just pull numbers out of your butt. "The vast majority are in ACT practices"? You would be wrong. You are also wrong about AA and the military. No plans AT ALL to have...

  8. OR experience for a surgical NP?

    nomadcrna replied to whomiskim's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    If you want to do procedures in the hospital as a FNP (in my states). Just attend a class, there are many available. Then work with your surgeon as a preceptor until the credentials committee is...

  9. Women's Health vs Family NP

    nomadcrna replied to khmora's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Your limited experience is really showing. Just because you have not seen it, does not make it fact. Below is what is called evidence based medicine. You will become proficient in EBM if you further...

  10. Is switching advance practices and specialties possible?

    nomadcrna replied to ArrowRN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Yes, you can become licensed in as many specialties as you

  11. Women's Health vs Family NP

    nomadcrna replied to khmora's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Babies are delivered all over the country by family practice physicians. Even c-sections are done by FPs. Everything does not center around urban utopia. Again, no offense intended but you are showing...

  12. Women's Health vs Family NP

    nomadcrna replied to khmora's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    "You were told". This is hearsay, period. I don't take anything at face value. You should always request a source. Would you take someone's word for a treatment modality or drug dose? If you post...

  13. AANA (NON) membership anyone?

    nomadcrna replied to ruler of kolob's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I have been a member for 21 years. Even though I may be dissatisfied, I believe in supporting the CRNA profession. AANA may not be doing what I want it to do but it is still the best way to support...

  14. AANA (NON) membership anyone?

    nomadcrna replied to ruler of kolob's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    You really think ill put anything here? This is your first post and you sure seem interest in stirring this pot. I'll

    nomadcrna replied to khmora's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Do you have a reference for this information? It is news to

  16. Per diem/Part time CRNA positions?

    nomadcrna replied to icuRNmia's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Really? It's is not the smartest statement I've seen. Are you aware of the many rural facilities that have job share as in 2 weeks n and 2 weeks

  17. Can an ACNP treat pediatrics in Texas?

    nomadcrna replied to Uroboros's topic in Advanced Practice

    Remember the consensus model must be passed by EACH state. I can tell you that in my state, it will not affect FNPs doing ER and inpatient medicine. I would bet other states such as Washington,...

  18. AANA (NON) membership anyone?

    nomadcrna replied to ruler of kolob's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I've come very close a couple of times to NOT renew my membership. I'm still very dissatisfied with the

  19. Should the "Doctor" title really be an issue?

    nomadcrna replied to SycamoreGuy's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    So, you are not a CRNA yet here you are telling us the difference in practice between CRNA and MDA? REALLY? There is NO distinction legally. We are judged LEGALLY, IN COURT to the EXACT same...

  20. Is there an NP licensure exam?

    nomadcrna replied to IcySageNurse's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Not sure how you can get conflicting information on this. It takes at least 5 seconds to google and see what exams are required. Are you really asking if the exams are fluff? Really? No offense...

  21. Should the "Doctor" title really be an issue?

    nomadcrna replied to SycamoreGuy's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    SycamoreGuy, We ARE trained to practice at the same standards. We are also JUDGED on the same

  22. Should the "Doctor" title really be an issue?

    nomadcrna replied to SycamoreGuy's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    I introduce myself as Doctor xxx, a nurse anesthetist or Doctor xxxx, a nurse practitioner. I earned the title. I'm damn well going to use it. AND, no the patients are not

  23. DNP vs MD

    nomadcrna replied to healthstar's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    This is absolutely not true. Now if you replace DNP with PhD, you would be correct. A DNP is a practice doctorate. A PhD is a teaching/research

  24. Narcotics and diagnostics...

    nomadcrna replied to TennesseeNP123's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Adderrall: NO Tramadol: NO Percocet: HELL NO. Diagnostics: Low back pain - Straight and cross leg raise positive? Any radicular component? either refer to neuro/pain or get an mri yourself. Narcotics...

  25. Can an ACNP treat pediatrics in Texas?

    nomadcrna replied to Uroboros's topic in Advanced Practice

    I can see adults and peds in primary care, inpatient, acute, and ER as a FNP. (In the states I practice in) NOT Texas obviously. Thankfully, my states are more
