  1. Lawsuit question

    Neuro Guy NP replied to PsychRN_CA's topic in Advanced Practice

    If the settlement involves you, I.e. you were NOT dropped, then yes you have a settlement against you and it is reportable. But you'll know if you're involved. Trust it's impossible not to. Many, many...

  2. Lawsuit question

    Neuro Guy NP replied to PsychRN_CA's topic in Advanced Practice

    Only if you settle or have a judgment issued against you. I wouldn't report anything to the board until you have a resolution. It may be that you're dropped from the suit and then there's nothing to...

  3. ANCC Frustrations

    Neuro Guy NP replied to APike's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I edited my post. At any rate, look at the quote I provided. You may have an FNP MSN, but you do not have a PMHNP post graduate degree, MSN, or DNP by virtue of not graduating yet from the...

  4. ANCC Frustrations

    Neuro Guy NP replied to APike's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I see how frustrating it is for you, but to be fair, I see the ANCC's point to. I do item writing for ANCC and AACN for the ACNP boards and am also on the standard setting committee. To gain...

  5. Has anyone taught a respiratory therapist in their class?

    Neuro Guy NP replied to EMT1's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    Could definitely help you as long as you don't fall into the trap I've seen many fall into - being either a know-it-all or a show off. I've taught/teach in undergraduate, MSN, DNP/PhD, and medical...

  6. Acute v Primary v FNP _NYC area

    Neuro Guy NP replied to emtrn13's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    True but there is Molloy College and Hofstra on Long Island too as alternatives to Columbia, Pace, and NYU. I believe LIU is looking to open an ACNP program soon

  7. Acute v Primary v FNP _NYC area

    Neuro Guy NP replied to emtrn13's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    ACNP is still more geared to that. But there are FNPs in that

  8. Acute v Primary v FNP _NYC area

    Neuro Guy NP replied to emtrn13's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Nope, ACNP it is. New York state is big on consensus model and most hospital NP jobs specify the need for ACNP credentials nowadays. You CAN do outpatient with ACNP, such as specialty clinic in any of...

  9. Reputable DNP to PhD programs?

    Neuro Guy NP replied to pnpvirginia's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    There are plenty of universities that will hire DNP prepared nurse faculty. PhDs generally do not offer any specific course work on pedagogy either, so if you're looking for a doctorate that includes...

  10. Just a question, URINE DIPSTICK/BLOOD

    Neuro Guy NP replied to TheFuture09's topic in Advanced Practice

    Download up-to-date or medscape apps. Good resources that will give you answers much faster than waiting for responses on a message

  11. Is being an FNP worth it?

    Neuro Guy NP replied to Shelly7913's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I wonder what program you are in. I wonder if it's a quality program or not. Perhaps you should consider your future and figure out if you even want to be an FNP before spending more time and money in...

  12. Nurse Practitioner Residencies

    Neuro Guy NP replied to JuiceBoxHero's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Same for 2 years but I'm sure you'll agree it was

  13. Where can acute care pediatric nps practice

    Neuro Guy NP replied to Dr.Naija_Glam's topic in Advanced Practice

    Peds ACNP can practice outpatient specialty. If you read the consensus statement and other related documents and position statements, acute care is NOT about location of the patient. It is about...

  14. AGACNP Residency?

    Neuro Guy NP replied to NurseKnope's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Do a search on this site. It's been written about or commented on plenty by various individuals, myself

  15. The economics of PA vs. NP

    Neuro Guy NP replied to subee's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I don't think it's fluff, but I agree that the educational value may not be there for some people who are interested in clinical topics. By the way, the PhD in Nursing offers nothing additional in...

  16. The economics of PA vs. NP

    Neuro Guy NP replied to subee's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Same holds true for any degree, including an MBA. But these degrees do give you the foundation necessary to continue building. They also have the tangible benefit of opening doors not otherwise...

  17. Nearly impossible to find NP jobs

    Neuro Guy NP replied to mrsannRN's topic in Advanced Practice

    Look into telepsych....that's pretty hot it

  18. PhD nurses educating DNP students

    Neuro Guy NP posted a topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    So I'm writing this mostly to start a friendly debate, but also because it may end up helpful for my academic position, since I teach in both medical and nursing schools and the university is...

  19. Resigning from first NP job...

    Neuro Guy NP replied to amahucka's topic in Advanced Practice

    Just give 2 weeks and go! COVID-19 is a unique situation and you can hardly be blamed. As a brand new NP, stepping back into the RN role does no favors for your development in this new career and you...

  20. New Paradigm for the DNP. What do you think?

    Neuro Guy NP replied to KetafolDNP's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    To be honest, the PhD in Nursing does not reinforce clinical content beyond the APRN specialty either, so to a large extent people are misunderstanding the purpose of a doctorate. If the content...

  21. Starting a PLLC

    Neuro Guy NP replied to DrCOVID's topic in Advanced Practice

    I actually wrote about this topic not long ago, so I'm not sure why there aren't results for you. But anyway, the above cited poster is correct that PLLCs or PCs or whatever tje designation is in your...

  22. FNP no longer allowed to practice inpatient

    Neuro Guy NP replied to Heather7's topic in Advanced Practice

    In my area, Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut all are very adherent to the consensus model. You see job postings explicitly say 'ACNP'. It is individual BONs who decide on...

  23. Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania

    Neuro Guy NP replied to Malvo's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Depends on the ICU. It is an issue in some ICUs as everyone competes for things to do. If memory serves me, it is not quite the issue in Neuro as it is Trauma or Cardiac. But my last discussion with...

  24. FNP no longer allowed to practice inpatient

    Neuro Guy NP replied to Heather7's topic in Advanced Practice

    But very few positions will you be caring for patients across the lifespan so generally it doesn't matter. Cardiologists, Neurologists, Gastroenrerologists, etc. are all either adult or peds focused...
