  5. Small hospital vs. Bigger hospital

    NAURN replied to lv203198's topic in General Nursing

    NAURN replied to kprince's topic in General Nursing

    I am also not immune to hep b after 2 rounds of the vaccine, never converted. I still take care of hep patients. If you are using universal precautions like you should be, there shouldn't be an

  8. Direct Entry NP Program, or RN, then NP?

    NAURN replied to luckylady5's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    NPs are RNs. You have to have an RN license to be an NP. You learn a lot being an RN that can be useful being an NP... assessment skills, interpreting labs, medications. My 5 years (8 once I actually...

  9. NP/DNP Options

    NAURN replied to faith4130's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    Oh, and Frontier (which is the school I applied to) offers a DNP also, not a direct RN-DNP but you can pursue that after the MSN if you chose to. I would def choose a school that offers a DNP so that...

  10. NP/DNP Options

    NAURN replied to faith4130's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    DNP is still a recommendation, not a mandate. Frontier offers a RN-MSN option for ADN prepared nurses. It i primarily online... all the didactic courses are online. They do meet on campus 3 times in...

  11. Premed, then BA in Business...best route to NP?

    NAURN replied to MILOBRI's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    A lot of universities are doing some hybrid versions... where didactic courses are online and they meet once a week. There is a school near me that offers a BSN-MSN program that meets every other Fri...

    NAURN replied to MILOBRI's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    NAURN replied to msleely's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

  15. How should I approach Nurse Practitioner before 2015?

    NAURN replied to ggryz's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I just re-read your OP, and I think I get it... so you are going to graduate with a BS in Psychology??? In this case, I would just go for the BSN-MSN option for you. Once you have your BSN, you can...

  16. How should I approach Nurse Practitioner before 2015?

    NAURN replied to ggryz's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    If you have your ADN, but not BSN (which I must have read wrong?). then there are RN-MSN programs. Most programs out there require a BSN first, but there are programs that offer the bridge option....

  17. How should I approach Nurse Practitioner before 2015?

    NAURN replied to ggryz's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    How far into your BSN are you? This makes a huge difference because although I do believe that the 2015 deadline is still a "goal" and not a mandate, depending on where you are at in your program will...

  18. Anyone thinking about Frontier in the near future??

    NAURN posted a topic in Georgia Nursing

    I am thinking about going to Frontier College for my ADN-MSN/FNP. Is anyone else thinking about going there too? They get stellar reviews, and although I had never heard of them, they are apparently...

  19. Need info PLEASE!: Least competitive NP schools

    NAURN replied to natyloo's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Look at Frontier. They are based in Hyden, KY, require 2-3 campus visits during the program. Their cutoff for GPA is 2.7, but if its above a 3.0 they do not require the GRE. I can't say they are not...

  20. Dilemma!!! Continue ACNP or...

    NAURN replied to msleely's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Yeah that's the problem I saw with the ACNP... you pretty much will work in the hospital setting and you will work what the standard schedule is for the NPs. At my hospital it is 5 on and 5 off, so...

  21. ED NP/NP job saturation

    NAURN replied to Reagan622's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Oh and as far as CRNA (I wanted to do that too), they do make really good money and there are jobs everywhere, but it is more expensive from what I found and I personally would not be able to work...

  22. ED NP/NP job saturation

    NAURN replied to Reagan622's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    The problem with only getting the ACNP is that you will only be trained to care for adults... so I liked your idea with the combined FNP-ACNP... FNPs are still being used at the hospital I work in......

    NAURN replied to BabyLady's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM
