  1. Nurse Practitioner's prescribing buprenorphine

    fivefeet05NP2B replied to CASTLEGATES's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I completely agree with your post. All of the political agendas of the AMA and legislators are becoming a barrier to the people who would benefit the most; the patients

  2. Passing cut offs

    fivefeet05NP2B replied to vonricter222's topic in General Students

    Well, when I was in nursing school, we actually DID have an instructor who wrote questions for NCLEX

  3. young FNP student out of place??

    fivefeet05NP2B posted a topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    So today was the first day of orientation for my MSN program. There were alot of nurses with a wide variety of nursing backgrounds but the common theme I noticed was that most were in their late 30's...

  4. Help! I look young!

    fivefeet05NP2B replied to hella_RN's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    I feel your pain OP

  5. No Good Very Bad Nursing Instructor

    fivefeet05NP2B replied to misskitty22's topic in General Students

    Ummm, chip on your shoulder much? All I saw her do was suggest that maybe this was the instructor's issue with her since she obviously does not know. Just because something is not your reality does...

  6. Students asking for free money

    fivefeet05NP2B replied to l.a.m.b's topic in General Students

    Umm...Why do ya'll care? If there are people who are able and willing to donate money to strangers, education is not a bad reason. I would say before judging so harshly, realize that you never know...

  7. Scoring High 40s on APEA Q Bank..

    fivefeet05NP2B replied to Gdschild's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Me, personally, If I were getting those scores, I would probably study more and push my test back. My university requires us to use APEA Q-bank and pre and post tests and we have to score at least 72%...

  8. dont understan DNP

    fivefeet05NP2B replied to Mvillam's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    You do not have to get your DNP to become a nurse practitioner. There are only recommendations at this time for the entry level for nurse practitioner to be the DNP. In my state, nurse practitioners...

  9. CNS V. NP

    fivefeet05NP2B replied to CriticalCareRN1's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I think you may have to sit down and really do some in depth research. The NP role is completely different than the RN role. If you want to continue doing bedside nursing and would just like to...

    fivefeet05NP2B replied to rnmichele's topic in Advanced Practice

    No, this is a Family track nurse practitioner program so we can only do them in family practice, internal medicine, peds, or women's

    Hello, just wanted to add a little more info to this thread. I am currently in the program going into my final year (yes!). I am full-time and have managed to work full-time since the beginning. A...

  12. Should I go to school to become a nurse or PA?

    fivefeet05NP2B replied to debbieprobe's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with the above poster. But If you absolutely want to change careers completely, you have to take several things into account. First, when you say "decent salary", what exactly does that mean?...

  13. wssu fnp 2014

    fivefeet05NP2B replied to oncnursprac's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Hey, I am in the program at WSSU but I started last fall. Just wanted to say congrats. Long journey ahead but it will all be worth

  14. Doing My Happy Dance Today!!!

    fivefeet05NP2B replied to MsKris_CarolinaGirl's topic in General Students

    Congrats mskrisRN2B!! I came to NC for nursing school but I am originally from Charleston so I saw your post and was like yay! for the home team lol. Trident tech has a great nursing program from what...

  15. young FNP student out of place??

    fivefeet05NP2B replied to fivefeet05NP2B's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Thanks everybody for the encouragement! Hopefully everyone looks at it the same way as you all. I am very excited to be on the road to becoming a nurse practitioner and regardless of how everyone...

  16. young FNP student out of place??

    fivefeet05NP2B replied to fivefeet05NP2B's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I'm kind of an old soul and honestly have been through alot of things most people older than me have probably not. I get along well with people who are not in my age group (where I work now, I am the...

  17. How do you cope with looking "too young" to be a nurse?

    fivefeet05NP2B replied to LaceyRN12's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    wow, sounds like a little bit of jealousy to me. Maybe you wish YOU didn't look 10 years OLDER than you are? YOU MAD? I can also attest to the experiences some of the nurses on here have had. I too...

  18. MSN as Nurse Educator or FNP?

    fivefeet05NP2B replied to LisalaRN99's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    I am not a Nurse Educator, only a FNP student but I think that if the Nurse Educator role was your initial intention you should go for it. As a 55 year old nurse, I'm not sure you would get the full...

  19. New job: "Don't worry about following the MAR" & other scary stuff

    fivefeet05NP2B replied to kak85's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    Honestly I think you should pack it up and find something else. Yes, the job economy is bad but not bad enough to put everything you've worked so hard for at risk. Giving the medication like that may...

  20. Wssu fnp program fall 2013

    fivefeet05NP2B replied to rnmichele's topic in Advanced Practice

    Yup, I'm doing full time. Going to try and knock it out and get it done!

  21. Can you work straights days?

    fivefeet05NP2B replied to IcySageNurse's topic in General Nursing

    Maybe you should just bypass being a nurse altogether and just go to PA school since I have read many posts from you declaring how PA's are better educated than NPs and how highly you value their...

  22. Older workers that are new grad nurses, please explain.

    fivefeet05NP2B replied to wish_me_luck's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I have seen this "sense of entitlement" from second career new grads also and I feel that regardless of how many years of work experience you have prior to becoming a nurse, If you were not a nurse or...

    fivefeet05NP2B replied to rnmichele's topic in Advanced Practice

    Naw, I don't know anyone who has gone through the program yet. I'm also a little curious as to the work-school flexibility of classes. I'm currently trying to ask
