  1. Lied to by new employer

    As a new NP it maybe harder for you to find a new job so if your really unhappy I would look for something else before resigning. But you never know the new provider...who and whenever they start...
  2. Haunted by my past...What are my options?

    Does Kaplan have an FNP program in your state? They are fairly easy to get into. I would just keep trying. If a school turns you down ask for an interview to explain. Sometimes it takes putting a real...
  3. DEA license, apply now or when offered a job?

    I know what you are talking about. As an RN I've always received an offer for every job that I applied for. As an NP I received a fair amount of offers for part-time work, (some where kind of...
  4. DEA license, apply now or when offered a job?

    Flipper, like you I thought I had a job, two in fact, lined up for me when I completed my NP program. One employer had to the the fill the position sooner and the other one gave me a similar excuse as...
  5. Nurse Practitioner Contract Negotiation

    I'm a new grad FNP and have been interviewing. I live in Austin, Texas and have been presented with the following offers: At a retail clinic $93k, $5000 per year in tuition reimbursement for student...
  6. Hi everyone! I just finished my FNP program and want to go right into the DNP portion but I'm having a hard time coming up with a research topic. I have to have my topic prior to enrolling. I've been...
  7. I think that you should fake it until you make it. Get come confidence and start applying to any and every job. As a new grad it is HARD to fine employment. Your 1st job might be something that you...
  8. Yes. In my MSN I had to complete a research project. I completed my MSN about 4 years ago and the topic is not relevant to where I'm at today. I do thank everyone who has replied to my question...
  9. What/why do they say our classes are fluff?

    I maybe one of the only ones but I do think all of those classes are important in some way. With that said I don't think I need a whole semester about research methodology, advanced research...
  10. Do you find is easy to balance school, work, and family life by taking 1-2 classes a semester? That is the type of program that I chose to use and on paper it seems easy enough I just hope I don't...
  11. That's kinda what I'm expecting from my DNP program. I start in two days and I feel the degree maybe pointless besides being able to say "I did it" and when it is all said and done that is important...
  12. Frustrated in Ontario PHC NP program

    Wow, that is a lot to take at once! I completed my FNP and was only allowed to take 2 courses per term which was full time. I took patho and health assessment in the same term and felt like it killed...
  13. LTC FNP

    I know some LTC NPs and would agree with traumaRUs,that they take calls for two faculities. I am not sure about the pay though. Beside the call rotation the work hours are
  14. I think that a lot of the problem is that college has become big profits for universities. Professors are hired to fill a spot, as I experienced in my FNP program, and don't really have much of a say...
  15. To study for my exam I purchase Barkley & Associates, Inc. home study course, Amelie Hollier's home study and CD's and Fitzgerald's. I got them all about a year before I graduated and listened to...
  16. I do agree that most capstone projects are pointless. I know there are better things to go with our time. I have a MSN where I had to complete a capstone project much like the one that is required for...
  17. I don't think that you need years of experience to become an FNP. Doctors are never asked if they worked in a certain job before going to medical school. Just study the material and "know your stuff"...
  18. Online BSN or On Campus BSN Program

    I found that online schooling is harder. What I mean by that is it seems that you always have to "prove" that you are studying or working on your school work. There are a lot more assignments and...
  19. Struggling :(

    I completed my MSN in two terms. At first I did the readings etc but quickly learned to jump right to the paper or course assignment and would focus on that. Some of the assignments I had never heard...
  20. Health assesment- shadow health

    I did not like Shadow Health!!! I just passed my health assessment class and didn't really understand how my school was grading that or how to improve my scores. I'm in school to be an NP and was able...
  21. I went to WGU for my MSN and at the time I just had a baby (he was 1 month old). Although I was employed full-time but on maternity, after having by son I felt that my maternity leave was too short so...
  22. So have you decided on the program yet? I started WGU in Sep 2011 and love it so far. I should finish my masters in March. I was trying to finish in 6 months but I missed my dead line. I've went to...
