    Managing Ancillary Staff

    DYS NP replied to Babyboss 19's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    She's entering the labs, but I assume you still need to cosign? If not, you could request adding that level of control in the EMR, or limit the types of tests she can order to standard panels. Also,...

    How much did NP school prepare you?

    DYS NP replied to Alexxoxox's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Does name of school matter?

    DYS NP replied to ToBeMSNNP's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    where are they going to get all these preceptors, short of paying them a substantial sum? >> Good question! On the plus side, at least the burden shifts from the student to the program, which...

    DYS NP replied to ToBeMSNNP's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner
