  2. Official NP "No Fly" list

    bsnanat2 replied to bsnanat2's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I think what you have said is the issue...should NP school be about student being taught or teaching themselves? Clinicals are to solidify knowledge and help translate education into practice, not to...

  5. Are online ANP degrees destroying our credibility?

    bsnanat2 replied to jilljw's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Don't disagree with you. Problem still remains that many of the online programs are responsible for the issues you just listed. Many, not all. I work with someone who did UAB's online program...she...

  6. Are online ANP degrees destroying our credibility?

    bsnanat2 replied to jilljw's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

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

    Check out NIFA's website...lots of good OR education and they have basically a half-price sale on the RNFA cert for NP's through the end of the month. Probably worth talking to them as I have never...

    bsnanat2 replied to reprimanded's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    bsnanat2 replied to lynn1216's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Sorry to hear about the troubles. It really sounds like a test taking issue and just plain overload. I had to finally stop with all the sources and just choose one. I chose Hollier over Fitzgerald,...

  22. Nursing strikes again!

    bsnanat2 replied to bsnanat2's topic in Advanced Practice

    Not surprised to hear that. CRNA's do have it together with regard to their certifying body and how they regulate themselves. They also do a better job of focusing on the hard science and what...
