  10. Hospital NPs & Lounge Access

    lhflanurseNP replied to wyld~heart's topic in Advanced Practice

    The hospitals in my area have open access to NPs and PAs. I can't imagine what is so "special" that your facility has blocked this. Wonder whose ego has been tromped! You may want to do a "survey"...

  11. Seriously?!?! You gotta be kidding me!

    lhflanurseNP replied to ~Mi Vida Loca~RN's topic in General Nursing

    Triciaj...hope it was true...but NOT! The bandaid was filthy and when we removed it, the pink skin against his "tan" said everyting. He had not cleaned the area so the bandaid wouldn't come off. As...

    lhflanurseNP replied to Ptav65's topic in General Nursing

    Guess I am different...but when the situation arose in the past, I would ask for just primary care...being totally responsible as nurse AND aide to 5-8 patients. This actually gave me ample time to...

    lhflanurseNP replied to freckles23's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  24. MSN or DNP for NP degree - what's better??

    lhflanurseNP replied to localgirl85's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    A DNP, just like a MSN, is a DEGREE, not a LICENSE. There is no REQUIREMENT for a nurse practitioner to have a DNP over a MSN. Pay is the same because you are paid by your license. You can choose...
