  1. I know it is a year later, but I'd be interested to hear an
  2. Hi folks! I am working on getting my own business up and running to have a part time private practice as an FNP and lactation counselor. Apparently New York State takes the longest to get a PLLC...
  3. Hi all! I will be switching some vacation days to conference days and am trying to figure out which online CMEs to do. I am in primary care at an FQHC. Some of what I'm considering: -Various...
  4. I’m in NYC. I am no longer at bedside but I have been in touch with people at my old hospital. She said that there are basically ICU beds all over the hospital, and patient beds in the atrium where...
  5. I am set to (finally!) finish my FNP Master's in May 2018 (kinehurah, knock wood, ptu ptu ptu, insert any other superstitious thing to say here). I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with doing...
  6. AANP test in Times Square?

    For posterity, in case anyone comes looking to this post for answers, I'll update with "the real deal." They DID indeed have lockers. They had me show two ID's and held on to one of them. They had...
  7. Hi - maybe this is a long shot but I am looking for the real deal on this and maybe someone on here will have experience..... I am going to be taking my FNP AANP exam in the times square location this...
  8. What do you eat for breakfast?

    I start the day with one or two almond milk lattes. It's not food but it's somewhat filling and gives me the caffeine/hot drink I need to start the day. Bring stuff along to eat easily and quickly...
  9. Hi all! I have been offered 150 hours of clinical at my local CVS minute clinic. The clinic is relatively new, and we do also have urgent care places as well as a hospital and various medical offices...
  10. Doing clinicals at CVS Minute clinic?

    My school applied us all. I think CVS is under the impression that I myself applied, but I just did what my school told me to do. I think it is too late to get it for spring 2018, as they already...
  11. I applied for the program and am anxiously/excitedly awaiting word on my admission. Anyone else here who applied for the program? (I was able to find another post like this but there haven't been...
  12. Thanks, I appreciate
  13. Hi canuckRN2. Due to very unfortunate events in my family life, I had to take a leave of absence from school last spring, and I'm not sure when I will be going back. I loved the program while I was...
  14. Medication Mistake

    A very minor mistake! No harm, no foul. While we're learning of course we aren't always going to do everything perfectly - that's the way it goes. As mistakes go this was pretty benign. And I once...
  15. Well opportunities depend on what's going on where you are and, possibly/eventually, what you make for yourself. I wonder if you have enough hours of breastfeeding assistance in your previous...
  16. I don't disagree with the other commenters, but here's one devil's advocate point: as a FNP you can care for babies as well as their moms. Then if you also went for IBCLC (lactation consultant) you...
  17. I just started FNP full time, and have 2 boys, ages 5 and 7. So far I've only done one 6-week semester, which was very intense. I only worked one shift the whole 6 weeks (I'm per diem - they told me...
  18. NYU's FNP May 2012

    ps! i am all for coffee on the 8th! it depends what time though, but if it's early enough it's a possibility. i'd have to be back in my neighborhood by 3, unless i try to call in some favors and...

    burnshdp!!!!! hooray!!!! for some reason allnurses stopped sending me updates on posts, so i didn't see this but luckily jen did and told me the great news! that is so exciting!!! we got a bunch...
  20. Pyxis for the uninitiated

    where i work, we only have controlled substances in the pyxis. most of the patient's meds come in a drawer specifically for them (not in the pyxis), but when we need percocet, ativan, etc, we have to...
  21. i vote for D. definitely not B! babies, especially in the beginning, are very all-encompasing. it's a 24 hour per day gig! tbh, when my kids were born i wasn't working or in school, AND i have a...
  22. where i work we have 6 patients each when we have normal staffing and a full house, on day shift. if we're short staffed we could have 7 patients! and we are a busy med-surg floor. it's a matter...
  23. NYU's FNP May 2012

    i found out - they aren't going to have that theory class at all. they're going to integrate theory within the other courses and instead we're going to do a 3 credit course "mental health across the...
  24. NYU's FNP May 2012

    hey guys, any word? i was able to confirm, btw, that they are only taking 20 students. ps - jen, i was thinking about your housing question and just wanted to add... you probably know this already but...
  25. Hi all! I've applied for the NYU FNP program, hopefully to start in May(!). It's been a LONG time since I've been in school and am wondering about how people generally take notes and/or record...
