  1. FQHC

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to Palliative Care, DNP's topic in Advanced Practice

    Thank you for advising me about the score. I will be sure to look into that. When I begin to interview I hope to be able to shadow or visit the facility before agreeing to take the job. I believe that...

  2. FNP clinical sites

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to rpiper4922's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    It really does come down to who you know. Be willing to travel. I'm licensed in 2 states. This is my last semester of my DNP program and I'm driving 1.5 hrs each way to a FQHC in a rural area with...

  4. Would you choose nursing again or another health profession?

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to Abbr's topic in Nursing Career

    No I honestly I would not. I would have completed undergrad in Biology and gone to a PA program. Many will not agree but it's my personal opinion. I graduate with my DNP in May because I never found a...

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to sailornaruto39's topic in Nursing Career

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

    I'm graduating in May from a BSN to DNP program in May. If I were beginning today then I would go the PA route. Having experienced my curriculum I would have preferred the medical model but that's my...

  7. Paging Doctor Nurse

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

    I had 3 reasons for choosing the BSN to DNP program. First, I wanted a terminal degree in nursing. Second, I only wanted to go through graduate school once. At any point if the DNP becomes a...

  8. BSN to DNP-FNP, how long?

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

    My program was supposed to be 3 years. Due to issues beyond my control with my capstone I'm now slated to graduate May 2016 for a total of 4

  9. FNP in a psychiatric office?

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to bethymaester's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am still a BSN to DNP student. I specifically contacted the BON in VA with this question as part of an assignment. I never could get anyone to return my call or emails. I just assumed that it was...

  10. Is ADN sufficient to ba trauma RN?

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to lena04's topic in General Nursing

    In my area the answer would be no. Area hospitals here are only hiring BSNs and have given deadline for current employees to earn their BSN. Good

  11. What nursing task do you loathe???

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

    Trachs make me want to vomit. The sound, smell, and auctioning make my skin crawl. Doesn't mean I don't do it but definitely not my

  12. New NP & DEA #

    Palliative Care, DNP posted a topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I will graduate in May 2016 and have begun to look into everything that happens once I graduate. I am in Virginia and trying to figure out if I have to have a collaborating physician before I can...

  13. I've only been in med/surg 1 year and I'm already burned out. What else can I do as an RN?

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to N7K8's topic in General Nursing

    I also hated the floor. I went back for the BSN first. Never really found what interested me. I will graduate with the DNP next May. I have found that I do enjoy the role of provider. Hope you find a...

  14. RN after PhD?

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

    No skip nursing all together. Go to PA school with that degree there should be no issue being accepted into a program. Then you will be out and caring for patients making more than a bedside

  15. Nursing uncertainty

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

    Don't give up. There are many jobs that aren't bedside. If you enjoy leadership maybe look into a MSN or DNP executive nurse leadership. Utilization Review, Nurse Managers, insurance companies are...

  16. Is the BSN worth it?

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to NurseCalamity's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    In my area if you want to work in hospital setting then you need a BSN. There is no shortage in my area with over 5 schools pumping out nurses. You need to know the market where you

  17. C in Chemistry. ADN program at Community College

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to Todd94's topic in General Students

    I had a C in chemistry I and a B in part II. I also had a C in both parts of A&P. I will graduate next May with my DNP. Don't listen to opinions. Apply to where you want. If you don't get into to...

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to lystacy's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Well guys at we can put on the licensed "clogs". Ok now see that was a dig

  19. Failed, nclex rn 5 times! Help?!?!

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to lystacy's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Because I disagree I am bitter? Ok I will take that. I don't consider myself a genius but I have busted my butt in every endeavor. If you buy tools why not put 100% into using them? Excuses are just...

  20. Failed, nclex rn 5 times! Help?!?!

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to lystacy's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Also, excuses about working and family don't fly for me. I graduated my ADN program in 2009 with twin 6 yr olds, an 8 yr old, and a 12 yr old. I took the Kaplan Review and passed the first time with...

  21. Failed, nclex rn 5 times! Help?!?!

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to lystacy's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    It's not opinion that the NCLEX tests minimum competency. It's not opinion that nurses deal with lives. Its not opinion that without passing said NCLEX that one can't be a nurse. Failing 5 times means...

  22. failed nclex for the third time

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to mommy1234's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Take a review course, study, and do practice questions. That's all I did and passed the first try with 75 questions. Nursing isn't for everyone and just wanting to be one isn't enough. As I mentioned...

  23. Failed, nclex rn 5 times! Help?!?!

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to lystacy's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    After failing 5 times there is a breakdown. You need review courses to refresh your memory. You also need to really ask yourself if nursing is for you? The NCLEX is testing basic knowledge to be...

  24. Failed, nclex rn 5 times! Help?!?!

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to lystacy's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I will say the same thing I said when someone posted they failed 7 times. Something is inherently wrong if you have not passed in 5 attempts. This is a test of the basic knowledge needed to become a...

  25. Convicted of murder as a teen and now a nurse

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

    My understanding was that if a person had felony convictions then you could not be licensed. Her name is incredibly easy to find and I imagine co-workers would also have this
