  1. RN to MSN?

    lhflanurseNP replied to sarrra23's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Currently, there are no requirements for a DNP for NPs...there is for CRNAs. There is a strong suggestion from various sources, but there is no set law at this

  2. South University FNP MSN program???

    lhflanurseNP replied to TashaLPN2006RN2012's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Review your notes from the weekly printed material. 90% of the exam relates directly to this

  3. I am a nursing student and I would like to go to Med SchoolD

    lhflanurseNP replied to brandykey89's topic in Nursing Career

    If you really want to be a MD...go to medical school. You are wasting time in nursing school. Being a nurse is not going to be very helpful in medical school. Both work with patients, but they are...

  4. South university online graduate school of nursing (msn family nurse practitioner)

    lhflanurseNP replied to ModestTruth's topic in School, College Programs

    ModestTruth...the first group of online NP students just "graduated" in June of this year. Students technically finish at varying times throughout the year, but the school does one major graduation a...

  5. Pls advise! Windows vs Android/iPhone for student NPs

    lhflanurseNP replied to RNinNYstate's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I had an iphone and loved all the apps that came with it, but it was too hard to see, so I switched to an android and find that most of the apps that I use are available on the android and easier to...

  6. South university online graduate school of nursing (msn family nurse practitioner)

    lhflanurseNP replied to ModestTruth's topic in School, College Programs

    Cwoods...South has campuses as well as online programs. I am not real familiar with the campus programs. The online program is intense, and has a LOT of papers and assignments. You have to be...

  7. South university online graduate school of nursing (msn family nurse practitioner)

    lhflanurseNP replied to ModestTruth's topic in School, College Programs

    Cwoods, you are correct. The tuition cost per hour just went up. So far, I have not seen an increase in my tuition (I have a signed contract at the previous rate). Can you finish in a year?...

  8. passed ANCC AGPCNP today!!

    lhflanurseNP replied to PCURN-BSN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Congratulations! Now you can take a few moments for yourself...you deserve

  9. Anyone working as an Independent Contractor?

    lhflanurseNP replied to Tinabeanrn's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Hopefully having those numbers does not dampen your view on your "raise", but typically this is a short-sighted attempt to make it appear as if the employee is making more money while still keeping...

  10. Anyone working as an Independent Contractor?

    lhflanurseNP replied to Tinabeanrn's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    As an independent contractor, YOU are responsible for all the taxes, license fees, insurance, etc. Basically you are your own "business" and you are "working" for this physician at an agreed upon...

  11. Hospice Nurse Practitiones

    lhflanurseNP replied to mcmetauten's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    mcmetauten, you are most welcome. Sometimes a new set of eyes can help find the path among the trees...as they

  12. Hospice Nurse Practitiones

    lhflanurseNP replied to mcmetauten's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I think you need to ask yourself where you want to work when you complete your studies. If you plan on working in an acute care setting(hospital or private practice), then you should stay in the...

  13. First clinical day as an NP student tomorrow :)

    lhflanurseNP replied to HikingEDRN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Perfect advise. The one thing that got drilled during assessment was to focus on differentiating abnormal from normal. As we were told, write what you see. It helps when you move on and have to...

  14. Passed AANP yesterday

    lhflanurseNP replied to honeykrown's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Congratulations! I will be done in December and have already started going through Leik's book. I really like the front section where she discusses many of the problems one can get tripped up...

  15. Failed AGACNP EXAM

    lhflanurseNP replied to Zncollette's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    > I am so sorry to hear this. What is most frustrating is you have to wait 3 months to retake. Can you do it through another testing agency? I don't know which one you took it through, but can...

  16. Did your school's reputation affect getting hired?

    lhflanurseNP replied to laRN1's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Still in school until December but, locally, the docs look at what clinical experience through rotations the student underwent and how much time was actually spent face to face with patients. Some of...

  17. started clinicals, need advice

    lhflanurseNP replied to Qka's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    You can also use programs through Walmart, Publix, etc. that provide certain HTN meds at little to no

  18. How do schools know if the student is getting good clinical experience

    lhflanurseNP replied to Gentleman_nurse's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    As zmansc states, my program is very similar. My instructor and clinical coordinators have been in touch with my preceptor several times during my clinical rotations. We also have to submit our...

  19. Passed Adult AANP Certification Exam

    lhflanurseNP replied to casias12's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Chris_Tea, thank you for sharing this information with us. I will definitely save this information for when it becomes my time. Thanks

  20. Midnight shift is killing me, literally.

    lhflanurseNP replied to fomaGT's topic in Health, Stress Management

    You stuck it a lot longer than I did. I tried nights for 4 months and just couldn't do for many of the same reasons. I would fall asleep on the way home (45 minute drive), and the straw that broke...

  21. South University FNP MSN program???

    lhflanurseNP replied to TashaLPN2006RN2012's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Queenbeenurse, I will be done this December. This program relies heavily on discussion forum postings and interactions and weekly papers. There have been a few tests but nothing one can't handle...

  22. South University FNP MSN program???

    lhflanurseNP replied to TashaLPN2006RN2012's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Queenbeenurse, I think you posted this in the wrong place? USI????? This is for South

  23. Apology from a doctor!

    lhflanurseNP replied to JasBSN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    One facility I worked at during nurses week one year did that! Our MDs took one day during that week and worked the floor, not their own patients, and did they have a greater sense of value of the...

  24. MSN FNP program that does not require accredited BSN program

    lhflanurseNP replied to KennyHubbell's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I remember talking to a nursing instructor I know at a school seeking accreditation. I asked her what would happen to the students who wanted to move on to an advanced degree. She told me that until...

  25. Apology from a doctor!

    lhflanurseNP replied to JasBSN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    While not an actual apology, I remember one particular doctor with whom I would just cringe when needing to call during the night. When I announced I would be moving away and leaving my job, this...
