  1. Adult NP ??

    nursetim replied to nursetim's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    WOW, more replies than I thought. I thought I put a notification on, guess not. Thanks EFV2178, I was thinking of just moving to WA state and just start doing house calls for $100 a visit (no...

    nursetim replied to ivyleaf's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am a recent ANP grad and everyday I look for employment I kick myself for not getting FNP, you have been warned. There are very few jobs for adult nps out there. Sorry but someone has to tell the...

    sandnnw, Thanks for the info. Now I may have changed my mind

  7. AANP or ANCC?

    nursetim replied to nursetim's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I understand that AANP is fraught with problems and is not user friendly at all. I want to be able to take my test in the least amount of time after graduation and as I understand it AANP is not...

  8. AANP or ANCC?

    nursetim replied to nursetim's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Looks like I have decided on ANCC. The decision made me

  9. Cash Only Practice Ideas

    nursetim replied to kiser56's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I did a clinical rotation with them at AHC in Apex. It is a great set up. Dr. Forest is a brilliant fellow and Stephanie is a great NP. If you want to talk about the practice I am at your service. I...

  10. AANP or ANCC?

    nursetim replied to nursetim's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    You lost me JD. Are you saying it is like the diving certification organization P.A.D.I. (Put Another Dollar

  11. AANP or ANCC?

    nursetim replied to nursetim's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I thought that one of the joys of NP is there are no recerts just renewal. Am I wrong

  12. AANP or ANCC?

    nursetim replied to nursetim's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    My preceptor said that one of the test was not very clinically based, but he took it in the 80's so I imagine they have changed a great deal. If I could get input from those that have taken either one...

  13. When to start looking for position

    nursetim posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am starting my last clinical in Jan. When should I start sending out my resume? I am also looking to go west. Washington, Nevada, Arizona, Idaho, Wyoming, New Mexico. My criteria is NP friendly, low...

  14. Would you report a physician who was involved in unethical/illegal activities?

    nursetim replied to ANPFNPGNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I can't do it. In MY opinoin he over prescribes. But who am I? A disgruntaled student, it would never fly. Thanks for clearing it up

  15. Would you report a physician who was involved in unethical/illegal activities?

    nursetim replied to ANPFNPGNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I did clinicals at a practice that had a "boutique" in the waiting room selling saris (sp?), junk jewlery, junk electronics. Maybe not the same as the other winners you describe. He had his staff do...

  16. Duke DNP

    nursetim replied to nursetim's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I would go with my gut were I you. You most likely be working with Mary Champagne and she is teriffic. So in your case I will reverse myself and recomend duke. But if the chance to work with Mary were...

  17. Duke DNP

    nursetim replied to nursetim's topic in Post Graduate Students

    The dnp was supposed to be a clinical terminal degree, now not so much. The best way is to go to a PA program. That will make you strong clinically, IMHO. Good

  18. Duke DNP

    nursetim replied to nursetim's topic in Post Graduate Students

    The coolness factor isn't there. Duke skates on it's reputation, not in content. If I had it to do over again, no way on earth would I. All I can say is that the name on my degree better do me more...

  19. How about a clinical pearl thread?

    nursetim posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    The title says it

  20. Watts School of Nursing?

    nursetim replied to candi323's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I graduated from Watts. Hard but good training. Everytime you think that what they ask you to do is the hard way, just remember there is usually a method to their madness. Go for it and good

  21. How about a clinical pearl thread?

    nursetim replied to nursetim's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    nursetim replied to Jo Dirt's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    For a 2000 hour work

  23. NP residency/fellowship

    nursetim replied to mark2climb's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Not sure I understand the second part. But I fully and wholly agree with your first part. I have another year on my NP and I really wish I had another 1000 or two clinical hours to round me

  24. For Those That Have Left Nursing

    nursetim replied to mammaoftwo's topic in General Nursing

    busyrnandmom, If walking down the street makes you SOB, EMT is not a light alternative. Relax, try to get off the meds and enjoy your kids. Good

  25. How long

    nursetim posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    How long between end of np school and certification? Are tests offered every month? Are review courses highly
