  1. Bye Bye Floor Nursing

    Palliative Care, DNP posted a topic in General Nursing

    I have left the world of floor nursing! It is like the clouds parted with light beaming down. I'm now only focusing on my grad program. Just 5 semesters left in my BSN to DNP. I detested every minute...

  4. Bye Bye Floor Nursing

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to Palliative Care, DNP's topic in General Nursing

    Lub Dub yes I will be able to sit for the FNP boards when I graduate. Don't feel sorry for me. I just never liked bedside nursing at all. I discourage my children from being nurses. I think nursing is...

  5. Burned out already

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to LaceyRN12's topic in General Nursing

    I absolutely hated every minute of being a floor nurse until I quit the other day! It stinks and I am not a waitress now nor ever. I am hoping that I will enjoy my new role as a FNP in a couple years....

  6. Is it too early to go the MSN/NP route after just a year?

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to Deetail's topic in General Nursing

    I say go for it! The NP & the bedside RN are 2 completely separate roles. They do not have the same job description. I'm in year 2 of a BSN to DNP program. So far being an RN has given me critical...

  7. Too much to do for ONE PERSON, staying late to catch up

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to LaceyRN12's topic in General Nursing

    I don't stay late unless absolutely unavoidable. Everything you just said is why I'm getting out of floor nursing. I am but one person and all of the constant demands & new tasks is

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to BSNbeauty's topic in General Nursing

    Well count me in the pot of stepping stones! I detest floor nursing and am currently in a BSN to DNP program. I would eventually like to use my NP in hospice or palliative care. Can not imagine...

  12. "When Was the Last Time I Wow'ed a Patient?"

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to Mully's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Wowing patients as the standard is exactly why I am in graduate school. Our goal should not be to wow every patient. That isn't why any of us became nurses. We are there to provide the highest level...

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to mstoltenberg's topic in General Nursing

  14. DNP seems like a waste...

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

    I am in a BSN to DNP program. I just completed year 1. I do believe we have many classes that will not help me to be a better provider. I'm tired of 10-20+ page papers. I have no plans to work in...

  15. Disgusted with nursing career

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to Blue4me2's topic in General Nursing

    Keep plugging away until you find what you are looking for. Practice assessments on anyone at home that will allow you to do so. You could always go to a RN to MSN program and become a mental health...

  16. Blue about Code Blue

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to barbaralynn's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Every day as I too work oncology. Some patients are coded several times because family can't accept or do not want them to be a DNR and they are no longer able to make decisions. I absolutely believe...

  18. bedside nursing, is it really that bad?

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to OCRN3's topic in General Nursing

    I have been the nurse that tried different units. I have never found a floor that I enjoy working on. I am one of the people getting out of floor nursing. I am finishing up year 1 of my 3 year BSN to...

  19. Not Excited About Becoming FNP

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to ChristineN's topic in General Nursing

    I am currently finishing my 1st year of a BSN to DNP in Family Practice. While I am not sure exactly what kind of setting I want to work in I do know I hate floor nursing. CRNA wasn't on my radar so...

  20. Saying no when work calls

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to TerpGal02's topic in General Nursing

    I am in graduate school and have gone prn at work. I give them a specific list of days that I can work. You would think that would not be a hard concept to follow but WRONG. They still call almost...

  21. "I'm not floating."

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to Morainey's topic in General Nursing

    Our unit has a list of who is supposed to float too. Does it always get followed? Not so much. I float though because it is an $3.00/hour for me. Floor nursing in general is ghastly in my opinion so...

  22. Saying no when work calls

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to TerpGal02's topic in General Nursing

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to anotherone's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  24. Preceptor Connect

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to shannonFNP's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to shannonFNP's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Do not use preceptor connect bc it is a scam. They took my money and did nothing. After threatening filing with the BBB I was given a refund. They will not you a phone # or a specific person to speak...
