    I just seen somebody post that they got an email regarding NHSC, but not Nurse Corps. I also work with an NP who applied for NHSC this year so I'll ask her. (She's on vacation in the DR). But she used...

    What do you mean by finalist? I thought they didn't give any definitive answers until Sept? Just asking... I haven't heard anything

    Thanks for the credit karma info! That app is awesome! I am a NP with a HPSA site score of 18 and debt/income ratio of 180%. I saw on credit karma that the "Dept of Heal" checked my credit on March...

  12. Nurse Corps Loan Repayment 2014!

    Lovanurse replied to NY1984's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Nurse Corp is for nurses, including Advanced practice nurses. NHSC is open to MDs, PAs, dentists, MH and NPs in primary care underserved areas

  13. Nurse Corps Loan Repayment 2014!

    Lovanurse replied to NY1984's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am also playing the waiting game. I applied to HRSA (NHSC) last year and was denied because of a low HRSA score at one of the two sites that I work at. HRSA just recently raised the scores at both...

  14. What is your take home pay as Nurse Practitioner?

    Lovanurse replied to hik9258's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Wow... These salaries make me feel like I'm

  15. Am I Missing Something?

    Lovanurse replied to greygooseuria's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I would also say that I've learned that sometimes, the diagnosis wasn't "missed", it was an incidental finding. I've caught a few alpha thalassemia's when I first started and the MD would always ask...

  16. FNP the good, bad and ugly (if any)??

    Lovanurse replied to Cindy-20's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I'm only 10 months into my career and my response may be different as I work in a HRSA site. Would I choose another profession? No. The good thing about being a FNP is you are always a nurse first so...

  17. Loan Repayment-National Health Service Corps

    Lovanurse replied to midwestFNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    May I ask what your HRSA score is? Mine is 19 and maybe it's too

  18. Loan Repayment-National Health Service Corps

    Lovanurse replied to midwestFNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I applied this year. I know the first disbursement should be Sept 30th. But when will they tell me if I'm even approved or not? I keep looking at my app status online and it says "under review" Has...

  21. Salary and pay question for new NP

    Lovanurse replied to Born_2BRN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am a FNP/DNP and in my experience, you will still be considered a "new grad" whether you have a DNP or not. So, initially, try not to get caught up in the credentials as far as pay goes. Believe me,...

  22. Pap guidelines...

    Addendum for current recommendations:

  24. Pap guidelines...

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

    I agree with the above post. Evidence based practice is the way to go. Current recommendations are also leaning towards Pap smears every 5 years for women >30 yrs of age if she had 3 normal pap...

  25. BSN to DNP

    Lovanurse replied to Palliative Care, DNP's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    Not to sound like a tape recorder but as stated above... My advice is to start thing of your area of interest now and work on your Literature Review as soon as you are taught how to do it. Then you...
