  3. UNC grad school 2016 decision

    OnwardEver replied to PeanutButtersRN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    That's crazy, redshirt09. Apparently you never came off the wait list last year? I appreciate how heavy the applicant pool is and the efforts of the admissions team devoted to making the decisions...

  4. UNC grad school 2016 decision

    OnwardEver replied to PeanutButtersRN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I'm waiting to hear too. Problem is I've already received admission offers from two other top schools and they want deposits within 15-30 days. UNC is closest to where I am living now and as an...

  7. Why don't you just read the chart?

    OnwardEver replied to Guest219794's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    My favorite part of receiving report from the ED is when the nurse that is giving me report has never even assessed the patient. So I ask of the ED nurse sending me a patient that was given Lasix 80...

  8. I'm a sexless nurse

    OnwardEver replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with mvm2 and others in that just because we are a males in the nursing profession it doesn't exempt us from performing medically necessary procedures on patients of the opposite sex. There...

    OnwardEver replied to hypatiafaerie's topic in General Nursing

  11. What is the point of becoming a nurse?!

    OnwardEver replied to newRN121's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Igunbor, you started out asking why become a nurse if you won't find a job once you graduate and then you shifted to "the problem of oversaturation of nurses in the nursing field" when you received a...

  14. NC and MD Grad Program Rankings vs. Real World Reputation

    OnwardEver replied to OnwardEver's topic in Advanced Practice

    Thanks, rgbrn. I'm not clear about the isolated negatives I've read about UNC-CH. It sounds like Duke, Vandy, and ETSU all have strong programs in the area but I'd like to be further east closer to...

  15. NC and MD Grad Program Rankings vs. Real World Reputation

    OnwardEver replied to OnwardEver's topic in Advanced Practice

    Bump: does anyone have any advice on east coast FNP programs? I'm sure this is the way I want to go but still on the fence regarding UNC-CH. Would appreciate advice and welcome any feedback if I'm...

  16. Forced to another shift when I have seniority

    OnwardEver replied to northern_RN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I agree, stand up for the residents and do what is right but also look out for yourself--whether you walk or not. Walking doesn't mean you can't contact the state like the poster above says and let...

  17. Forced to another shift when I have seniority

    OnwardEver replied to northern_RN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Why waste your time with employment attorneys when you know this is going to be a contentious work situation? As long as that DON is in, you will be the target of fury and disapproval no matter what...

  18. Persistent vs. aggravating with HR?

    OnwardEver replied to MissM.RN's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Hi BostonSN, I think it's prudent to say in your cover letter that you will follow up in a certain amount of time, say 2 weeks. It is a very competitive job market and following up and showing...

  19. NC and MD Grad Program Rankings vs. Real World Reputation

    OnwardEver replied to OnwardEver's topic in Advanced Practice

    Your perspective is appreciated, juan de la cruz. You're right, when evaluating the quality of FNP programs one definitely has to proportionately weigh the quality of partnering community-based...

  20. NC and MD Grad Program Rankings vs. Real World Reputation

    OnwardEver replied to OnwardEver's topic in Advanced Practice

  23. Oxygen Question

    OnwardEver replied to Hoosiernurse's topic in General Nursing

    Because the patient doesn't appear to have COPD I agree, I don't think it's so much about the risk of knocking out respiratory drive as it is about the day nurse wanting to know if you tried to...

  24. Hollier Practice Questions Book?

    OnwardEver posted a topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I have the opportunity to buy Amelie Hollier's Adult and Family NP Certification Questions book at a reduced price. I've looked at the scant reviews on Amazon and saw Hollier's book looks at obscure...
