Hi. I am new grad9sorto of), May 2015, passed boards July 2015. In middle of np residency in State of Washington which will end October of this year. I want to work in Texas, Dallas/Fort Worth. I have obtained my liscences ( Texas), I am hearing rumors and whines about Texas... however i need straight talk. How are FNPs in Texas? Although the job posting states "under supivosory doctor...) what does this mean? Please help me. Thanks.

I am sorry but you have to report her. This is a dangerous person who should not be working in the healthcare field. I woudl be so upset if I knew that someone taking care of my dad or grandfather or any family member was treating them this way. I know this is a difficult situation for you, believe me, but you really have an obligation to the patient. I will be prying for you that all goes well foryou and yoru family.

HEy what happened? I was reading all the entries... and they stopped in 2007... I am a new ED nurse....med surg experience 3 years. I am excited but scared. loved this thread...please keep it coming.

CONGRATS. I will be attending OBLC on the 16th of Aug and am a mixture of excitement :yeah:with a dose of fear:confused:. I am 45 years old but I am proud to be able to serve my countgry in this capacity. and My sons are just as proud of me, the are all in their 20s now ( my baby just turned 20 yesterday), in college so i felt this was a good time for me to do this. we must all stick together and encourage each other. be thinking of me next month.

Thanks for your response. what phone company did you use?

Hey, I am restarting my travel nursing career. stopped for a year, but just missed it. anyrate, i will be starting back in June at Chinle, AZ, Indian REservation. have some questions for anyone out there... cell phone : i have sprint and I don't think it is covered there. also CABLE: any point in me bringing my T.V.?? Thanks in advance for any insight. I am actually excited.. was esp when found out that IHS was using travelers.

well, i have completed all thenecessary paperwork and my healthcare recruiter is sending it up for boarding.. i am 44yreas old. all kids in college, i even relocated to dallas. and like a lot of you, i wanted todo something more with my life. scared yes. but...determined. what i need help with now is the fitness preparation. any suggestions. i have joined afitness club and am changing eating habits.

Thanks, I appreciate the response. I completed the application and am wating for the MEPS. I am actually excited about it. I will keep you informed.

I am also thinking about the reserves. I am 44 yrs old. recently relocated to dallas tx from ohio via travel nursing. I did all the paper work a year ago for the reserves but had to lose some weight so decided to do travel nursing. Now it is still in my heart I think? are there anyone who is my age who is in the reserves? how much in shape do I need to be and also can i do the officer's training since i have a BSN and 4 yrs experience? thanks.

well, i have read all 26 pages of this thread... and i am still interested. i am hoping to start my fnp in spring of 2008. thanks for this forum to keep us informed. i really have a lot of questions, but i will do my; own resarch before sounding like a idiot.

thanks for all the info. i am going to begin np here in dallas tx. i still researching regarding pay and priviledges that np have.

I drove from ohio to reno, nv. i am glad i did. it was like a vacation and got me adjusted to driving in unfamiliar areas. plus i was still paying for my van and i was also able to bring some things along that i did not have to depend on my company to profide. anyways, good luck. this is my first assignment also. hopeing to get to ca in jan.

thanks.

I verbally told my recruiter that i would extend my contract. now i am having second thoughts. she says i am committed even though i have not signed new contract. is this true?

i have read the other threads re: pbds and am getting a bit scared. i am on my first travel assignment in reno, nv, and thankfully did not have to take that test. but what about the other places i go to? i am going to email my recruiter right now. thanks for the heads up. loretta
