  1. Just received a A D+ in psychology

    I have learned that the professor is key for me. I recommend you look at a site called ratemyprofessor.com I used this while I was in school and I found it helpful when choosing courses where I...
  2. Accepted for PMHNP fall 2014. Any other PMHNP students out there?

    NY doesn't accept online programs either, except for Frontier and they don't offer Psych. I think there is one other program but I can't think of it off hand. Have any of you looked at the Stahl...

  4. Accepted for PMHNP fall 2014. Any other PMHNP students out there?

    Hi JaneBSN & mzaur, It must be exciting to move and start a program, but stressful too, after this winter it sounds like a good idea to head south! I did my BSN in a hybrid program and I loved...
  5. I live in NY so this bill is very interesting to me as I will be starting a PMHNP program this summer. I was reading headlines stating that NP's now have independent practice. I have read through...

    BlueDevilDNP, are you saying that NP's have to pay physicians to
  7. Nurse Practitioners Modernization Act....

    Nursetim.....Having had children, I understand the concept. I also understand what independent practice means. My question was why is the NYS act being referred to as independent practice when there...
  8. Ok, so here is the question....I have dual licensure in NY and Pa. My workplace is a hospital and clinic in Pa. My residence is in NY. My BSN is from NY. I am applying to a brick and mortar for...
  9. Nurse Practitioners Modernization Act....

    Thanks Juan, That helps clarify it. I will try the to find the correct site again, I looked previously to posting but I must have not been on the right
  10. Nurse Practitioners Modernization Act....

    OK, that's kind of what I got out of it too but I don't quite understand the difference. I am new to many of the details about agreements with physicians, so please feel free to enlighten me. What...

  12. In FNP program, delay or push through?

    Ha Ha...you sound like me, I love a challenge! It's good that you have the option to back off if if needed, that is a stress reliever as well. I totally get the need to have it over and done with....
  13. In FNP program, delay or push through?

    I have 4 teenagers and I had been in a similar situation years ago when starting an adn program. I ended up putting it off for a few years after a lot of soul searching. I saw myself with a...
  14. Question about Frontier

    I was wondering if I can apply to frontier before my bsn is finished. I am in my last semester of my bsn program, so do I have to wait until I have diploma in hand to apply or can I apply now for a...
  15. Just finished first year... asked to redo orientation

    I have had the same experience as you with the brain fog and fatigue. After years of trying everything I figured out that it was my diet. When I eat lots of carbs and bad ones at that I am...
  16. Another burnt out nurse - questioning everything. . .

    Life is long and you have so much ahead of you. It is very difficult to work and go to school with children, I waited until mine were older because I thought it would be easier but it really is just...
  17. Completely enraged!!!

    I completely understand how you feel. I have a long backound in customer service and I get really annoyed with staff who are rude and demeaning. I usally call them out on it and it stops them cold....
  18. Documenting for another nurse?

    Feel free to correct me if I am wrong on this. A friend of mine works at a snf that wants the RN's to document on the LPN's patients, even though they do not work on that unit and don't even see...
  19. Documenting for another nurse?

    The charting that the LPN's are asking them to do is not the supervisor type of thing like falls, ER admits, or when a patient needs a secod set of eyes on them for an assesment (they already do that...
  20. Documenting for another nurse?

    Classicdame, that is exactly the concern I have for her. She doesn't even see these people, there are forty beds on each unit as well as her own. She is supervisor of the three units weekends and...
  21. Graduation, First ever RN job, And Fired within 2 Months?

    This is NOT how most facilities are run. You should have never been put in the position of taking care of so many patients so soon. If those were your only mistakes I am actually amazed, a 22 person...
  22. Feeling frustrated/embarassed...want to quit nursing...

    I think not.done.yet's post should be a sticky somewhere on this site, preferably in multiple areas. Very astute and wise......I think it is the best post I have
  23. Fired during probation... what now-- more than 1 yr RN

    I am an "old" new nurse and I had a few preceptors who were awful, none of which were older than me in fact. In my orientation last year I did see that med errors/omissions/mistakes are NOT tolerated...
  24. DON.....NP....MSN.....worth it?

    I've been reading through some threads and watching the folks at work and wondering what the ups and down are from their point of view as well as the people here. I see our NP's (and PA's) working...
