    shannarini71 replied to climbingeverest's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Wow, 1-2 years before on your own? That seems like a dream come true to me! I got my RN license in November 2013 and started a L&D full time position in January. I am about to finish a 2 month...

  4. How to pay back your student loans

    shannarini71 replied to Brian's topic in Nurses Rock

    I was not able to get student loans because I had too many credit hours for my ADN program so had to get a private loan. My plan is to pay this loan off FIRST before going into the bachelor's...

  5. Advanced Holistic Nursing master's degree--thoughts?

    shannarini71 posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Hiya folks, FAU is now offering an Advanced Holistic Nursing master's degree, which I find really cool and interesting since my own philosophy on medical care is more holistic and...

    shannarini71 posted a topic in Psychiatric

    Hi there, I graduate in a few months with my ADN. I definitely don't want to work in traditional nursing and psych and counseling have always been my interest. Most people tell you that you must get...

  7. PMHNP programs all going from MSN to DNP?

    shannarini71 replied to shannarini71's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Hi Harmonizer, Why do you hope this will be the trend--will there be better compensation for the DNP? Do you think it will pay off for those of us who choose to go this route? MSN school is already...

    shannarini71 replied to shannarini71's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks, GrnTea! I didn't know you were a psych NP :) This idea really appeals to me--I guess I'm just tired right now so the thought of more schooling pains me, but it is necessary to get to where I...

  10. Why should I become a Psych RN?

    shannarini71 replied to bellabarbiegirl's topic in Psychiatric

  12. Nursing student about to graduate who dislikes nursing--advice?

    shannarini71 replied to shannarini71's topic in General Nursing

    Also I am wondering if that old wisdom about "working at least a year in med-surg as a new nurse before pursuing a specialty" applies here--should I not just try to get a job in a psych facility out...

  13. Nursing student about to graduate who dislikes nursing--advice?

    shannarini71 replied to shannarini71's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, I have considered psych nursing. THAT does appeal to me much more than traditional nursing. I had thought of pursuing an advanced degree as a psych NP but I guess I'm a bit conflicted whether to...
