  1. Parents wanting MD

    BeachFNP replied to pedspnp's topic in Advanced Practice

    Our scheduler is trained to explain to people who they will be seeing when they come for an appt. this is usually only an issue with new patients, because once they are seen they prefer to stay with...

  2. New Staff Orientation

    BeachFNP replied to Bluem67's topic in General Nursing

    I would definitely bring up your concerns to the supervisor. She is probably going to need a much longer orientation then they thought. I used to orient all the time so I get the frustration. My main...

  3. Parents wanting MD

    BeachFNP replied to pedspnp's topic in Advanced Practice

    I get this occasionally. Mostly it's a sideways glance and a "is the doctor coming in?" If it's his day here I just hand them over to him and he is totally fine with it. Most of the time they turn out...

  4. Off duty RN scope of practice on an airplane.

    BeachFNP replied to creativekari's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not offended- I actually thought the same thing when I wrote it. Honestly- in all the codes I was involved in we never had to actually wait more than maybe 2-3 mins for a dr, np, or pa to show up....

  5. Who prescribes for themselves or family

    BeachFNP replied to automotiveRN67's topic in Advanced Practice

    This is an interesting discussion. I only rarely prescribe for family/ friends. And I mean rarely. I have done a controlled substance ONCE for a friend who was having intense anxiety issues- but- told...

  6. Off duty RN scope of practice on an airplane.

    BeachFNP replied to creativekari's topic in General Nursing

    And just to add... When I say "when I used my ACLS" I meant in a capacity as an RN. I'm currently an FNP but not in a hospital

  7. Off duty RN scope of practice on an airplane.

    BeachFNP replied to creativekari's topic in General Nursing

    When I responded I was simply letting OP know what part of that scenario would have bothered me personally. I have ACLS training myself and know what it's for. I was just saying that I would have felt...

  8. Off duty RN scope of practice on an airplane.

    BeachFNP replied to creativekari's topic in General Nursing

    Personally I would be the most worried that I gave epi without an order, even with ACLS training. If they were carrying epi on a plane who would be the person trained in administering it?? I guess I...

  9. Adjunct Professor?

    BeachFNP replied to BeachFNP's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    That sounds like a really good idea. Thanks for this

  10. Adjunct Professor?

    BeachFNP posted a topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    So I'm not sure if this was a great idea or not, but I have agreed (at the repeated requests of my former clinical coordinator) to return to my FNP program to be an adjunct. My husband thinks it...

  11. Adjunct Professor?

    BeachFNP replied to BeachFNP's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    Thanks. That's helpful! I'm relatively young (28) but I don't plan on working this much at my current job in a few years. I'm thinking getting my foot in the door this way would be nice to pull in...

  12. Adjunct Professor?

    BeachFNP replied to BeachFNP's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    It's all online. It's turned in through the schools online blackboard system- so yes, I'm thinking quite a bit of time on there, plus emailing and discussing things with students. I hadn't thought...

  13. New NP-Negotiating a Salary

    BeachFNP replied to PhillyFNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    True- I hadn't really thought about that. None of the other NPs I work with work full time either (all by choice). So I never really equated what I make with a full time gig. I guess it makes sense...

  14. Adjunct Professor?

    BeachFNP replied to BeachFNP's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    Thanks! I appreciate the response. I know for a fact I would not have any office hours or need to come up with teaching plans. Like I said, I'll be a clinical visitor. So I'm basically given a rubric...

  15. New NP-Negotiating a Salary

    BeachFNP replied to PhillyFNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    That's awesome! I wish I made that much. lol We are a 3 office practice in a pretty rural area. We are pretty much the only specialty like this in the area, however it's not exactly like patients are...

  17. New NP-Negotiating a Salary

    BeachFNP replied to PhillyFNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Just jumping in to say I work in a specialty office and we may only see 7-10 patients in a day. Part of this is because I am the sole provider in a new office (one of 3 offices for the same practice...

  18. How did you pass the ANCC certification exam?

    BeachFNP replied to beckyfnp's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I didn't get my score either, but 105/150 is considered passing for the test (or so I was told). It just made me feel better going in to say that to

  19. How many hours do NPs normally work?

    BeachFNP replied to RescueNinja123's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    It depends on what you do. I work in a specialist office setting and only work 30-32 hours a week (usually 3 8-9hour days and a half day). This is by choice, the money allows me to not have to work...

  20. How did you pass the ANCC certification exam?

    BeachFNP replied to beckyfnp's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Took the ANCC on Monday for the first time and passed, thank goodness. Can't imagine having to study again for it. Personally, I felt it was just different. I recommend you brush up on theory,...

  21. Horrible preceptor

    BeachFNP replied to SoundofMusic's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I feel your pain. I also had a terrible experience my very last semester of NP school. Felt very belittled and as if the physician expected me to know things that were completely above my head......

  22. 1 Year Experience required... but how do i get experience if you won't hire me?

    BeachFNP replied to knighton201's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    As someone who assists my manager in the interviewing process, let me just tell you that I know it is very frustrating. However, my manager likes to see that someone is interested in our specific...
