  1. PRN during FNP School?

    littlepeopleRNICU replied to MexicanFNP's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    ^my school also requires this. If you can find somewhere to get insurance at an affordable price, then I think working PRN would be great, as long as you're confident you'll at least get the hours you...

  2. Personal Statement

    littlepeopleRNICU replied to decembergrad2011's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I would think just have to be double-spaced and maybe a professional style/size font...you shouldn't need a title page or a reference(unless I guess, you were for some reason citing something?). Mine...

  3. NICU vs. Peds Med-Surg/Step-down

    littlepeopleRNICU replied to nurse-samie's topic in Pediatric

    I work in a level 3 that performs ECMO and am on our ECMO team...you're right. It's great experience. However, if you really see yourself wanting to go to PICU, go with the peds med surg/stepdown. As...

  4. Advice Needed: School/Finances

    littlepeopleRNICU replied to LatinRN1's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Keep renting...when you graduate, you may even be able to afford a nicer house than you would be able to now. That's my plan! Even that set aside, if you have the means to go part-time at work right...

  5. To NP or not to NP

    littlepeopleRNICU replied to Aimeek's topic in General Nursing

    My biggest question wouldn't be based off salary or age, but rather, do you want that ROLE and the job description of an NP? If you do, then I would go for

  6. NP school reputation

    littlepeopleRNICU replied to Jules A's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    This is scary

  7. Why is it okay for Doctors to yell at Nurses?

    littlepeopleRNICU replied to GlowBear500's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    It's not okay! One of the things that bothers me about nurses is that they will accept treatment like that. Not at my facility...it is both, accepted and encouraged, to write physicians up when that...

  8. Getting a C in Anatomy :(

    littlepeopleRNICU replied to Upward_Bound's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Honestly, your thread screams immaturity in multiple places. I know you're upset. However, telling someone you hope they die because you don't like what they tell you, automatically makes me think you...

  9. Should I make a stink about this?

    littlepeopleRNICU replied to Zooey72's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Welcome to nursing

  10. NP school reputation

    littlepeopleRNICU replied to Jules A's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    And it may even be the STUDENTS themselves that cause this, not the school. I have two friends who are attending that school that are very serious, hardworking, great nurses and students...but they...

  11. Working for two hospitals

    littlepeopleRNICU replied to mindofmidwifery's topic in General Nursing

    I know a lot of nurses who work at two different hospitals! And they're not always the same departments. One of my friends works with me in the NICU and works at another hospital in the ER. She was...

  12. Ready to Go Back to school: NEED HELP!!

    littlepeopleRNICU replied to Christielockett's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    University of South Carolina will accept students from Louisiana. However...1)there are campus visits. Not sure if this is something you're willing/able to afford to do, but you must come for an...

  13. Littmann stethoscopes

    littlepeopleRNICU replied to littlepeopleRNICU's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Unfortunately, I am required to get a specific model for school...but I will check Amazon! Maybe they'll even have a good deal around Black

    Thanks!

  15. Direct Route from BSN to FNP?

    littlepeopleRNICU replied to Desi_Princess's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I think the vast majority would recommend you work as an RN before entering school, but yes, there are countless online NP programs that take brand new grads with no experience. Many have very lax...

  16. FNP vs. AC-AGNP

    littlepeopleRNICU replied to Rjoshi19's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    OP, I am going to an online program through a well-respected University. My lectures are online...which works for me as far as flexibility goes, but I will also have sim lab days once I start clinical...

  17. NP school reputation

    littlepeopleRNICU replied to Jules A's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I haven't graduated, but I feel like in my area, certain schools are favored. I don't have a lot of solid evidence to back this on...only the observed fact that my friends who graduated from my school...

  18. Truth about UAB NP-FNP program

    littlepeopleRNICU replied to Ms.Kay's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Your post describes what I expect from any reputable NP program...and what I searched for when looking for mine. (Except I do have

  19. Turning down a preceptor

    littlepeopleRNICU posted a topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I found my first preceptor! 🙌🏻 I have to turn down another, whose office administrator I've been in close contact with. The reason I hadn't told them no from the get go was that both...

  20. Turning down a preceptor

    littlepeopleRNICU replied to littlepeopleRNICU's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    You ended up securing one though, right? I'm glad you

  21. Turning down a preceptor

    littlepeopleRNICU replied to littlepeopleRNICU's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Yes, in my...and many, NP program, doctors precept NP students. We can be precepted by an MD, NP, or sometimes a PA, if approved. I don't really see why there would be confusion about this. If it were...

  22. Does this sound feasible?

    littlepeopleRNICU replied to lpnbutterfly's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    No, we understand. Or at least I do, and I think from the others' posts, they do too. What we're saying is, why GET a bachelor's in a completely unrelated field and then continue on in nursing? It's a...

  23. New job and I am happy = WIN!

    littlepeopleRNICU replied to CocoaLoverFNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Awesome!

  24. Turning down a preceptor

    littlepeopleRNICU replied to littlepeopleRNICU's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I got my 3rd yes for Spring today! I sure hope I am able to find someone this easily in semesters to come

  25. Does this sound feasible?

    littlepeopleRNICU replied to lpnbutterfly's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I think you should make a decision now. If you do BAS, LPN-BSN, then an MSN, that is way too many stepping stones...as well as a lot of time and money. Make a decision now and go from
