  1. In Support of Independent NP Practice

    nomadcrna replied to Corey Narry's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    OK, so you are not an NP. So you really have NO CLUE at all what you are talking about. You are talking from a perspective that does not have the education to make informed decisions about NP...

  4. Earning potential

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

    It sounds as if he is talking about fee for service. You bill for your own procedures in the ER. Some places do this if for instance, you have a group of NPs that contract to cover the ER. It is very...

  5. What would you do? Advice Needed

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

    Simply not true. Show me medical schools that take PAs as "direct entry". LOL Maybe you could call the AMA and give them your solution because I have heard nothing about it from any reputable source,...

  6. You might want to avoid this recruiting company

    nomadcrna posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I received an recruitment email from Delta Healthcare Providers. I replied and ask that the recruited please address me by my title in the future. I think we deserve professional respect. I was nice...

    nomadcrna replied to lakewood77's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I do ESIs and joint injections. Some of my colleagues offer full service pain service. No practice agreement needed as I am in an independent practice state. 2. Normal billing just as you would for...

  10. NP..How do pts adress you?

    nomadcrna replied to blackvans1234's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Per our (NP) professional organizations. It seems that they ALL support the use of Dr. in the clinical setting. I've found that by introducing yourself as Dr. xxx, a nurse practitioner, it opens the...

  11. NP..How do pts adress you?

    nomadcrna replied to blackvans1234's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I'm curious but just a couple of days ago you posted this. If you finished your program, congrats. Just curious if anyone out there has done a few specialty hours in like the ED or ortho and just...

  12. NP..How do pts adress you?

    nomadcrna replied to blackvans1234's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I introduce myself as Dr. xxx, a nurse practitioner. Many times it opens up an educational opportunity to discuss NPs with the patient. We also have a large sign posted in the waiting room that tells...

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

    Nurses truly are our own worst enemy. Bet, I do the SAME job as a physician and I DO get the same pay. Imagine that. The rest is not even worth responding too. The post reeks of

  15. You might want to avoid this recruiting company

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

    We are not talking about NPs with masters degrees. Please re-read the OP. Really? Once again, please become an NP so you at least understand the basics. Your replies show that you have no clue about...

  16. You might want to avoid this recruiting company

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

    1. Become a NP first. Until you do your opinion does not count for much. No offense intended. 2. NPs ARE called Dr. In the clinical setting. Not sure where you got this all encompassing erroneous...

  17. You might want to avoid this recruiting company

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

    You may consider it whining while I consider it defending our practice and furthering the NP cause. It is why I whine to get full staff membership and whine to get the practice privileges NP deserve....

  18. You might want to avoid this recruiting company

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

    First, the non NPs, don't bother replying. No offense but your opinion does not mean much. For the others, you are sadly missing the point. The point is the snarky response to my polite request. The...

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

    Well, I have to admit that Delta contacted me and did the right thing. You can't blame one person for the company. Delta was very nice and I have to retract what I said about the company. Just don't...

  20. You might want to avoid this recruiting company

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

    One more note. I posted this not because of the initial emails. I posted it because of the recruiters attitude when politely asked to address me differently. It would have been better to have even...

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

    Once again, stay on topic. It's has nothing to do with out of work people. What you fail to grasp is that we need to fight for our profession, not sit back and cruise. You might not realize it but we...

  22. You might want to avoid this recruiting company

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

    Your reply struggles with logic. It has nothing to do with working for delta. It has everything to do with them calling me By my first name. When I politely ask to be called by my title, the recruiter...

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

    LOL, I believe in standing up for our profession. I believe in being professional. Do you think that is hinders the NP cause by we NPs calling physicians Dr. And they calling us by our first name? Do...
