  1. CRNA Threat

    You obviously have no clue. First because you are not a NP or PA. Second, because you are showing you have no knowledge about the school. BTW, I am a CRNA AND FNP. So please, finish one and come back...
  2. FNP or WHNP

    I do women's health as a part of my FNP practice. I also do pre-natal care until they off to the "big city" at 36 weeks. I do IUDs, paps
  3. NP salary too low?

    LOL, Tical, Your trolling is amusing. You must feel really insecure to have to come here with us lowly nurses to debate who is better. Just a quick refute on the ICU first. I read EKGs better than...
  4. NP salary too low?

    So lets break down my education. BSN 4 years ICU required 1 year CRNA 3.5 years FNP 1.5 years DNP 3 years oh my, thats 13 years. Of course that does not include the 12 years I spent in ICU/CCU and ER....
  5. Studentdrtobe is back with veiled comments. Once again your information is totally wrong. I'm not sure why you are even stating that people videotape H&Ps. Really? Once again, why is a supposed...
  6. NP salary too low?

    Respect is a two way street. What you say above works both ways. All members of the team should have respect for one another. All providers should be careful of getting in over their heads. All...
  7. NP salary too low?

    1. Become an NP before giving us your opinion on the differences between physicians and NPs. 2. You are very insulting. Really? I think you are just trolling. That statement is one of the more...
  8. WHNPs assist in C-sections?

    Yes, any NP can assist and bill for first assist services. Yes, WHNPs can assist in other ob/gyn surgeries. No they do not have to be RNFA. Take the above in relation to your state

  10. NPs practicing as DRs

    Many states are independent. Many NP in Montana, Washington, Arizona and Alaska(states I've practiced in extensively) are in independent practice. Mainly rural areas, of course. I agree that PAs and...
  11. NPs practicing as DRs

    Yes, I am quite aware of them. I spent lots of time at Ft. Sam playing.My point on that is it sounds cool, kinda fun but for anyone of any advanced level, not a real learning
  12. NPs practicing as DRs

    Once again, don't compare apples to oranges. You are comparing a doctoral level emergency focused program for people who are already PAs to an entry level NP ER/primary care focus program. You switch...
  13. NPs practicing as DRs

    I've done both military and civilian and yes, many civilian programs have tissue labs. I did the goat labs in the Army. Two of them. Interesting but not a big deal in regards to actually learning...
  14. NPs practicing as DRs

    And? My point is that NO pa or np is qualified to solo an ER right out of school. This includes your husband. I also was in the army (doing anesthesia). I worked with the army trained PAs. Army had a...
  15. FNP is an option depending on your state. I see all types of patients in my practice. These include prenatal visits (they are transferred to OB/GYN at 36 weeks in a larger city) and a large number of...
  16. Role of office manager

    Familiarity breeds contemt.Why on earth does a receptionist feel her opinion matters about your medical decisions?You need to set them straight or
  17. something i'm curious about. why is a med student hanging out in a nursing forum? it seems you really don't like nurses. you have made 6 posts, all very anti-nurses. i for one am really not interested...
  18. The exam will utilize test items previously used in the USMLE Step 3 examination; no items in current use in USMLE will appear in the CACC exam. What does the above say. You can read english. test...
  19. OMG, we are not talking about step 1 and 2. LOL Am I speaking english? :) If step 1 and 2 were so important, then I wonder why every peer reviewed scientific study shows NPs outcomes equal or better...
  20. seems you left part out. the passing score for this exam was the same as that of the step 3 nbme exam, because "we tried to make it as clear as possible for any dnp passing this exam that [he or...
  21. No wonder our profession is messed up

    very well
  22. Physician extender? No NP that I'm aware of is a "physician extender". I find that term extremely
  23. watered down? seems the questions are taken from the exact same pool. do people think we won't check up on what they claim is the truth? abcc: cacc established the american board of comprehensive care...
  24. No wonder our profession is messed up

    You would also not have a Family Practice physician doing your surgery or dealing with your serious illness, would you? You would rather have a specialist? You would rather have a surgeon do your...
