  1. As basic decency slips away....We watch them die and do nothing.........

    bsnanat2 replied to greenfiremajick's topic in General Nursing

    It's not like the guy fell in. He wanted to kill himself and these people are supposed to risk their lives to stop him? I didn't see anything which indicated in the long timeframe of the incident that...

  2. Sexist Comment by Unit Director

    bsnanat2 replied to whill08's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    his past experience may be that some of the male workers 'slacked' when it came to these sorts of tasks. it may be that as a social worker he is not familiar with 'all things nursing' and assumed...

  3. Nurses Masquerading As Doctors (INSULTING)

    bsnanat2 replied to djaychris's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    this guy could not possibly be more wrong if he purposely set out to be so. no matter how badly you want something to be, and no matter how much passion you say it with, this still does not make it...

  4. Do FNP's really make 80k to 90k a year?

    bsnanat2 replied to mariposabella's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    from that standpoint, we definitely do not have it all! i will gladly let you keep all that snow and freezing cold. i enjoy not turning on my heater until january! you have to be more man than i am...

  5. Supervision of a Registered Nurse

    bsnanat2 replied to radioactivern's topic in General Nursing

    she can supervise you administratively, not clinically. this person may suffer from the 'just a nurse syndrome' that so many office personnel do. they are either frustrated because of dropping out...

  6. Do FNP's really make 80k to 90k a year?

    bsnanat2 replied to mariposabella's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    tjfrn, anywhere in ga would be great for fnp. i imagine the poster who listed the low wages in georgia could only be in sw georgia (near albany) because that area is known for being behind the rest...

  7. An open letter to the ER triage nurse

    bsnanat2 replied to laurasc's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    The Ghost Whisperer just spoke with the Horse Whisperer and the dead horse says to 'please stop beating

  8. An open letter to the ER triage nurse

    bsnanat2 replied to laurasc's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    fribblet, you sure are investing a lot of energy into this post. some things are indefensible. if this much energy and effort are required to ‘make your point’, you probably don’t have a point....

  9. How do I respond to a poorly written request to be a nursing student?

    bsnanat2 replied to BrentRN's topic in General Nursing

    i must say that i have not read all of the posts, but wanted to caution people from assuming that this was a foreign person who wrote this. most foreign students are very motivated and do a better...

  10. Do FNP's really make 80k to 90k a year?

    bsnanat2 replied to mariposabella's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    You must be in the boonies! I am in GA (near the coast) and RN's start at the NP pay you're quoting and the NP's make along the lines of $80-120K, CRNA's 135-200K. Hopefully the cost of living where...

  11. Staff meeting

    bsnanat2 replied to pedspnp's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Nurse feels overworked? Wow! Sounds like the MD and nurse have NP envy! How long have these two been together? That may have something to do with it. Hang in

  12. An open letter to the ER triage nurse

    bsnanat2 replied to laurasc's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Horseshoe, that truly says it all. Great

  13. WHNP vs FNP

    bsnanat2 replied to MelRN13's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    This whole thread (and the many like it) shows the primary flaw in the NP system: Too many certifications. One would never find these types of things on a PA message board because there is no need...

  14. NP but decided not to practice

    bsnanat2 replied to celle507's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    great suggestion! and if you can't find one, create your own! know a physician or np you admire/respect? approach them. whether it's a hospitalist system or private practice, suggest that you be...

  15. An open letter to the ER triage nurse

    bsnanat2 replied to laurasc's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    So, am I to believe, based on some of the posts here, that one can't be civil and expeditious? Again, be professional. If you're having that hard of a time with it, maybe you're not as good at it as...

  16. An open letter to the ER triage nurse

    bsnanat2 replied to laurasc's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    i am so sorry that you had this experience. send the letter. the bottom line with the attitudes you described is unprofessionalism. blame it on burnout or whatever you like; there is no excuse for...

  17. NP but decided not to practice

    bsnanat2 replied to celle507's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    You owe it to yourself to take the chance. If we all stayed within our comfort zone nothing would ever change or advance. There is nothing wrong with being careful, but don't sell yourself short....

  18. Help! ideas on getting along with a MD who dislikes NPs

    bsnanat2 replied to westcoastgirl's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    i don't think we actually disagree. i realize that my post was a little harsh, but the md's and their lawyers are worse. my point is that the argument as originally presented simply will not fly....

  19. Help! ideas on getting along with a MD who dislikes NPs

    bsnanat2 replied to westcoastgirl's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    nomadcrna, i have a great deal of respect for np's and should not have made it personal. a forum like this can allow one to become a bit more aggressive than in person. believe me when i say that i...

    bsnanat2 replied to westcoastgirl's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    feeling a little self important nomadcrna? the np role did develop as a response to a shortage of primary care physicians in certain rural areas. the success of the np position should not embolden...

  22. Nursing student help

    bsnanat2 replied to GivingLove's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Check out videos by the Standard Deviants www.sdlearn.com. They have several chemistry and organic chemistry vids. The skits and props are a little childish and simplistic sometimes, but they really...

    bsnanat2 replied to mariposabella's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Not over the top. The original response served no constructive

  25. Do FNP's really make 80k to 90k a year?

    bsnanat2 replied to mariposabella's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    most np's have their malpractice ins. paid for, but the policies are not that much. the premiums are more on par with full coverage car ins. than physician malpractice fees. as for cnm, aside from...
