  1. Easiest/quickest online MSN-DNP program

    ClayH posted a topic in Post Graduate Students

    I am finishing up my FNP program and would like to take the last step and get my DNP. I am doing this just for my own pride as there really isn't a lot more for a clinical NP in my role to...

  2. When will everyone understand things are different in the ER

    ClayH posted a topic in Emergency

    Do any other fellow ER RNs butt heads with other departments when transferring a patient up from the ER? I think sometimes other departments forget I only had this patient for 30 mins and for 27 of...

    Hey my RN to BSN was the most influential and meaningful educational and professional journey I have experienced....... said no one ever. To me the DNP is too easy to not get, much like the

  5. NP to MD

    Does anyone know if there is an NP to MD bridge program? I think this may be an option for me if so... I have heard of this internationally, but never anything in the US. Any insight???

    ClayH replied to ClayH's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I felt like I was reading a poem here haha Well said about the reasoning behind. I want to be ahead of the curve as well as not be 10 years out of school when I'm told I have 3 years to complete the...

  7. NP to MD

    ClayH replied to ClayH's topic in General Students

    Yeah I read this the same way. In my state (AZ) NPs are fully independant and several of my friends own and operate private clinics. The doctor of medical science mentioned here seems strikingly...

    ClayH replied to Mel73's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    What you read is accurate. I am in the final year of their FNP and I regret going to ONU everyday. Worst program I have ever experienced. Everything from top to bottom is awful. They don't communicate...

    ClayH replied to Mel73's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I'm assuming you are referencing the RN program at ONU since you mentioned NCLEX. This thread is regarding their FNP program. Still good info for prospective students to stay far away

  10. When you stop caring about your patients

    ClayH posted a topic in General Nursing

    I feel like I am deep in a compassion fatigue phase right as yesterday I didn't really feel any emotion when my elderly patient passed away. Just saying that makes me feel terrible, but it is true. I...

    Welcome to Mayo Clinic where we'll give you the best care in the world but we'll also have to take your kidney to pay for

  12. Your impression of a nurse working on an ambulance

    ClayH posted a topic in General Nursing

    I took a part time job as a CCRN with an ambulance company. Sometimes when I go to the ER/ICU, I get strange looks and occasionally talked down to from other RNs until they realize I too am an RN. I...

  13. Your impression of a nurse working on an ambulance

    ClayH replied to ClayH's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with you there that the nurses may be basing this off experiences with ambulance crews who may not be as clinically educated as would be expected from a healthcare professional, but I feel...

  14. Olivet Nazarene FNP

    ClayH replied to Mel73's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I am half way through. I would strongly suggest going to another school. Idk how far your friend is but it was a very doable and normal program up till patho. At that point things take a turn for the...

  15. Olivet Nazarene FNP

    ClayH replied to Mel73's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Patho and pharm are pretty tough because the exams are proctored and the amount of material on each exam every 2 weeks (about 500+ pgs). I passed but patho especially was the toughest class I have...

    ClayH replied to Mel73's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Oh believe me I know we have in our cohort. Even taken our concerns all the way to the dean of the entire school. No change was the result. Unfortunately as long as they continue to have new...

    ClayH replied to Mel73's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Realistically what is a better program for the same length? The only way people passed before was using their books and internet on tests but now being proctored forget about it. Pass rate rapidly...

    ClayH replied to Mel73's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Agreed! I'm almost half way through the program now and it's too late to transfer out. This program is terrible! Disorganized, zero communication, and absolutely no actual teaching. They embed random...

    ClayH replied to Mel73's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    at least it's just a few more months! I started aug 2016. I am just starting the pharm course. It was rough not being able to use notes or references and kinda sucked with it being procotored. But I...
