  1. Frontier- how far out did you apply?

    I think it depends on which track you are applying for: FNP, WHNP, or CNEP. The CNEP classes frequently have extended deadlines. From my discussions with staff and faculty, all applications submitted before the deadline are reviewed by the committee ...
  2. More Frontier Questions!

    2. How would you describe the study/coursework/exam process? For example, are there powerpoint lectures complemented by required book readings, and is the exam given on a particular date and time? Are the exams open book? I'm not sure how that all wo...
  3. I applied to FNU's CNEP program and was accepted into the class I applied for. The wait to hear back was agony but I did have plenty of time to make travel arrangements. There is a fee to attend Frontier Bound. You have to take an two-part introducto...
  4. Certified Nurse-Midwives (CNM) Mentors Needed!

    Frontier Nursing University offers an ADN to MSN program. There are likely other programs out there as well.
  5. CNM Advice Needed for Frontier Midwifery Program . Please Help

    Frontier is amazingly flexible. I am a current student attending the accelerated full-time program. I am a single mom and work full-time. I know of other classmates who have multiple children, are single parents, or are new parents. The school recomm...

    I also posted a link on the Frontier University facebook page. Good luck in your search. We're on there, I swear!
  7. Frontier nursing university CNEP class 122

    Same situation. Work in AK, no L&D experience, decided not to wait and just head on to school. Good luck and I hope you make it. I was recently accepted into class 121 so I'm not too far ahead of the game from you. Good luck!

  10. Frontier nursing university FNP class 121

    Nope. But I'm not stressing that bit. The acceptance was the major anxiety producing event.

  12. Frontier nursing university FNP class 121

    I have nothing in my email. Ack!
  13. Frontier nursing university FNP class 121

    Arrgh, this is killing me. I just looked up the cost of airline tickets and they've gone up 300$ since last month. This SUCKS! First thing I'm doing as soon as I get word of acceptance is purchasing airline tickets. I should've done it last month. Ca...
  14. Frontier nursing university FNP class 121

    Do all the classes attend Frontier Bound together? I know it's the same days. Just wondering if I'll be meeting the FNP and WHCNP along with other CNEP students? I don't see why not since it's mostly an introduction in how to do online school, no? Sh...
  15. Frontier nursing university FNP class 121

    I also applied for CNEP121. And I've been constantly checking my email. I need news! This wait is killing me! I'm typically a patient person but considering I have to save money and schedule off from work... and the holidays, it all adds up to a very...
  16. Air Force NTP Boards July 2013

    I applied OB both times. My recruiter is out of Seattle.
  17. Air Force NTP Boards July 2013

    I am again alternate select #2 on ob. Sigh. I've waited a whole year as I#2. Here goes the waiting game again.
  18. Air Force NTP Boards July 2013

    So... What dates is the board meeting? I didn't even bother to ask. I just knew in July with notification in August. I didn't bother asking my recruiter since I didn't want to obsess about it. But now I find myself wanting to obsess and not having an...
  19. Air Force NTP Boards July 2013

    Round 2 for me as well. If I do not get selected I plan on just heading to school for my Master's. Maybe getting picked up with HSPS. I will get in the Air Force!
  20. Nurse In The Military - Pros & Cons - Sexual Assault

    Oh boy. Where to begin. Sexual assault and harrassment is grossly under-reported. I have experienced sexual assault & harrassment and seen it occur multiple times. Nothing terribly violent but still otherwise annoying. I'd like to think that it i...
  21. Real vs fake chest pain

    As everyone else has said follow protocol. At a minimum gather VS, auscultate, feel the pulse and do the EKG. You're documentation needs to show as much objective data as possible to CYA. Ignore security and their eye-rolling. 99 times out of 100 it'...
  22. what are the requirements for correctional nursing?

    Typically LPN or RN. It's a lot of med pass and screening. You have to be a rapid responder in case anything acute happens but it is usually then transferred to ER. The required background depends on where you're going but it's generally medical. If ...
  23. Air Force Nursing 2013

    Recruiters are very busy and you have to be very persistent. I just spoke with my recruiter and I gently reminded him that he has not been answering my questions satisfactorily. In the process he mentioned that several things have changed. MEPS is no...
  24. Air Force Nursing 2013

    I'm just offering what my recruiter has passed onto me... take it with a grain of salt. I am an NTP alternate for OB. I was told that all boards have been cancelled for the rest of this fiscal year and that their plan is to select from their alternat...
  25. A Question for Night shift Psych Nurses - Do you limit PRNs?

    I too believed in limiting PRN use. However, the director of nursing in my facility (A psych NP) provided research articles and education on the effectiveness of PRNs. I can't recall what articles he provided but the gist was, There's a time and plac...
