  1. PLEASE Consider Repution of your NP Program!!

    automotiveRN67 replied to futureeastcoastNP's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I guess to look at this another way. 1) ARNP is a career. It should be chosen by those who are ready for the challenges. No college, instructor, educator or program can change that. Finding a school...

  2. NP's working on their old units

    automotiveRN67 replied to twinmommy+2's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I worked in an ICU where one of the nurses completed NP, and was hired by the hospital as the first critical care NP for that department. No one liked her. A couple of pulomonologists didn't even want...

  3. Discussion about Cardiology NP reading stress tests

    automotiveRN67 posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am currently working with a cardiology group, performing and reading stress tests. Currently everything is co-signed. Has anyone else done this? The rules for billing and competency are very vague....

  4. Discussion about Cardiology NP reading stress tests

    automotiveRN67 replied to automotiveRN67's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Thanks for your information. That's what I am figuring out also. I have my own stress lab now, within our group, so it is strictly outpatient under our rules. I was hoping to run across someone else...

  5. Inpatient NPs - what is your patient load?

    automotiveRN67 replied to ghillbert's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    At first it seemed like you had a question. Then it turned out you just want to talk about you. As you may have noticed, the norm is very broad. Teaching hospitals are much different than private...

  6. Discussion about Cardiology NP reading stress tests

    automotiveRN67 replied to automotiveRN67's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Less of a question and more of a review of current practice. I am looking for other NP's who are doing this, or not doing this, and their experience. Whether their work is cosigned or not, and...

  7. My NP job search--Cue the crickets and tumble weeds rolling by..

    automotiveRN67 replied to BostonRN13's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    The problem is not that groups don't need the help. It is that they need the help. They are not looking for you, as much as they are grumbling "I wish we had someone else". My advice to new graduates...

  8. NP in surgery dept

    automotiveRN67 replied to AutumnBreeze's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    And don't forget about the reps. Usually they are hanging out in the OR and would love to show you how their equipment

  9. Why cant New York residents get online NP program?

    automotiveRN67 replied to roseonye's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I'm confused. Why don't you just pick from any number of Online NP schools that allow you to sit for certification through the AANP (my preference) or the ANCC (not my preference)? I don't think NY...

  10. NP in surgery dept

    automotiveRN67 replied to AutumnBreeze's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Youtube. Find out what procedures you will have to learn and watch videos. In the modern era you shouldn't have to spend much money to learn what you

  11. ANP vs. FNP

    automotiveRN67 replied to Gasthem2014's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I took ANP because it was quicker and available. I only wanted to work in adult specialty, so no need for FNP. My advice is to have jobs lined up. Most physicians I know, including our own practice,...

  12. Looking for advice on two job offers

    automotiveRN67 posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I currently work for a home visit company, and enjoy the work, but it is new to the area and is not providing enough visits to be profitable. I have had two recent offers. 1) Local cardiologist is...

  13. Applying for Surgical PA jobs as an FNP?

    automotiveRN67 replied to BostonRN13's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    We have a few NP's working in the surgical first position. Its a valuable place to be, because you can still preop and postop patients, make rounds, and do wound checks in the office, in addition to...

  14. Why do NPs call associate MD their "Boss"

    automotiveRN67 replied to IcySageNurse's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I don't use the term "boss" often, but I do let patients know that I appreciate and respect our physicians, even though we practice autonomously most of the time. Everyone in our group has a little...
