Hi everyone, I live in NJ and am currently working as an RN at Planned Parenthood. My end goal is to become a Pediatric NP and work in a pediatrician's office. Would like to know if it would be more beneficial to get pediatric hospital experience or office experience while I'm still an RN. I'm currently getting my RN-BSN and have two years left. Any tips from PNP's or people in the PNP program would be helpful. Also, I'm planning on applying to Rutgers' PNP program in the future so any info on that would be helpful as well. Thanks so much!

Hi everyone. Thank you for your posts. Planned Parenthood called me back for a second interview so it is something I am going to ask about. However, I did find a place in Philadelphia that offers a blood draw course for nurses. They said they'd put me on the list and whenever a group is put together, they'll contact me but god only knows how long that will be.

Hi, I'm a new nurse and recently went to an interview at Planned Parenthood. The interviewer told me to get blood draw training for the job. However, I've been looking online and have only found training to be a phlebotomist. I asked my old professor and she doesn't have a clue. Does anyone know of any places that offer blood draw training for nurses in NJ or will I have to take the phlebotomy course?
