   whoamibutme replied to IcySageNurse's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

   Many of the educational paths are "Evolving" and changing. PA schools used to primarily be for Military Medics coming out of service, a place for them to use their skills and advance their education...

   Oh here we go again, a pa student coming on a nursing board to tell us all how much better their education is. And of course these are the same guys that are on the pa forum dissing np education...

4. Most Rigorous NP Programs (worried about NP Curriculum)!

   whoamibutme replied to IcySageNurse's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

   I think, with all due respect, the holistic approach is a myth. Pharmacology, advanced patho phys, medicine, ect. Is what it is, and what many np programs have in their curriculum. Those thinking...

5. Most Rigorous NP Programs (worried about NP Curriculum)!

   whoamibutme replied to IcySageNurse's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

   There are plenty of np programs that offer a solid foundation to begin practice. They may have different course titles than the standard medicine courses (and many do not) but the key is they provide...

6. SF/Bay Area Psychiatric NPs

   whoamibutme replied to psych_aprn's topic in Advanced Practice

   I don't know about psych, but yes... the Bay Area is very saturated with nurses of all flavors. New grad RNs still hunting 2&3 years later. I've heard that even UCSF MEPN students struggle to...

7. What's Cali. life like?

   whoamibutme replied to DFRAZIER25's topic in California Nursing

   I am sure you know all are very expensive :) That said, agree that it's kind of a rat race. Lots of traffic, etc. LA and San Diego are more of what you think of in terms of "Sunny California". San...

   Hi Vivealegre, I believe the cost they are quoting (I thought I read around 78K) is for the whole program. Someone please correct me if I am wrong. Good

9. NP program cost. Your input please!

   whoamibutme replied to hik9258's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

   WOW, awesome people are finding programs for those costs. I haven't seen them, maybe not looked hard enough.

10. NP program cost. Your input please!

    whoamibutme replied to hik9258's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I am not an NP yet but looking at similar tuition costs. The sad fact of the matter is, schools are really jacking up the prices of these programs. Even a lot of the MA programs are nearing 30 grand,...

11. Is anybody else tired of the nurse practitioner craze?

    whoamibutme replied to WillRegNurse's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Sad comments from the OP. Sounds a bit catty and judgmental to me. Completely disagree. Medicine is so individual... to say one would never see a particular clinician because they seem roleless and...
