  1. please where can i find a physics lab online

    Dranger replied to simonetaa7's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Online physics lab? lol no way. The equipment we used in my college physics class cost thousands of dollars and no way we could do it online. What's up with these constant posts of people trying to...

  2. GN to NP in <1yr

    Dranger replied to OhioCCRN's topic in General Nursing

    Army yes, but Ranger no. I am not going to take credit for being that when I'm not lol. Yes I am done with pre med as well as a full time

    Dranger replied to OhioCCRN's topic in General Nursing

    You are right, a few studies negate physician training and residencies because clearly NPs are just as good or better. When should med schools start closing down? Obviously NPs are immensely cheaper...

    Dranger replied to OhioCCRN's topic in General Nursing

    Nope just an RN not beguiled by the pomp and rhetoric of the strong handed nursing

    Dranger replied to OhioCCRN's topic in General Nursing

    Where did you do your urology residency? Or was it just OJT like every other NP

    Dranger replied to OhioCCRN's topic in General Nursing

    I understand where DOs were at a while ago but comparing DOs to NPs is like apples and oranges. Step 3 is a basic test to see if new residents can practice medicine in an effective context. If...

    Dranger replied to OhioCCRN's topic in General Nursing

    I have a BSN, no clinical advantage to an ADN. Just another mark for the nursing lobby. NP? Not in my future. Maybe CRNA or PA or DO. You always know what you don't know. I guess my NP to DO friend...

    Dranger replied to OhioCCRN's topic in General Nursing

    They should exist with physician oversight unless improvement to curriculum and residencies are instilled to make them totally independent. Quality of the programs varies so much you can't be sure...

    Dranger replied to OhioCCRN's topic in General Nursing

    Simple question, is NP training equivalent to MD/DO? A quick view of curriculum shows that it isn't even close. If I were a provider I would want the best training available to treat my patients. Now...

    Dranger replied to OhioCCRN's topic in General Nursing

    So do you think NPs would benefit from standardization across the board with school and curriculum? I know some that do x-ray interpretation but not suturing and vice versa. Do you not think a formal...

    Dranger replied to OhioCCRN's topic in General Nursing

    Ah I knew you were going to post this one, I have read it before. Problems I have with it: 1. Mundinger, controversial former dean of Columbia's SON 2. Old (2000), prior to the advent of readily...

    Dranger replied to OhioCCRN's topic in General Nursing

    I have seen studies showing similar outcomes but they were all from AANP studies. Research bias? I am a numbers guy, so when I see: NP: New RN + online/hybrid/on-campus NP school 3ish years 600-800...

    Dranger replied to OhioCCRN's topic in General Nursing

    So you are suggesting new NPs and MDs are on equal levels provider skill wise? Lol...funniest joke I have heard all

  14. GN to NP in <1yr

    Dranger replied to OhioCCRN's topic in General Nursing

    I don't mind being seen by an NP for clinic visits where I could probably prescribe my own meds but if it was a more serious issue or inpatient I would prefer a MD/DO. With the prominence of online or...

  15. Second Semester, i hate it

    Dranger replied to palamino98's topic in General Students

    Welcome to life. You thinking being an RN is all rainbows? Lots of days deserve the "hate"

  16. GN to NP in <1yr

    Dranger replied to OhioCCRN's topic in General Nursing

    I just go by my experiences working with both and by my colleagues who are finishing NP school and wish they had a residency because they don't feel prepared. Personally if I want to practice medicine...

    Dranger replied to OhioCCRN's topic in General Nursing

    Most if not all PA program require medical experience namely paramedic, RN, tech etc. My local one requires 5000

  18. Student Nurse "Help me!" Threads

    Dranger replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    Google...city...data. That will tell you everything you need to know about job outlooks and city demographics. Even with the internet people can't research, it's

  19. Things you'd love to tell a fellow nursing student or faculty.....

    Dranger replied to ixchel's topic in General Students

    Faculty: So why did you become a professor without any RN experience? You expect me to take you seriously? Student: No ones care about your long drawn out story that is barely relevant. Tell it to...

  20. GN to NP in <1yr

    Dranger replied to OhioCCRN's topic in General Nursing

    False. If you seriously think that one assessment, patho and pharm class (that's the minimum for accreditation) makes you a steady provider without even a residency you (or they) really need to...

  21. GN to NP in <1yr

    Dranger replied to OhioCCRN's topic in General Nursing

    Yeah but plenty of schools will accept her anyway. Hell it seems like any new grad can get into most NP program. The problem with graduate level nursing is there are no standards across the board....

  22. Who should make patient assignments??

    Dranger replied to D.R.A.'s topic in General Nursing

    For critical care whether it be ICU or PCU the charge takes 1 patient usually and helps fill in for breaks. Other than that they are way too

  23. Who should make patient assignments??

    Dranger replied to D.R.A.'s topic in General Nursing

    On my unit the charge nurse does but we can tell her if we don't want the same patient twice (if they are needy or time consuming) and things get adjusted. The HUC or secretary is not a clinician and...

  24. Nursing tougher for guys than girls

    Dranger replied to Nursing pursuit's topic in Men in Nursing

    In general I think women in nursing school are better at focusing on nursing skills and classes. Many are already tied down with boyfriends or marriages, thus outside of family nursing is their life....

  25. The dumbest thing you've ever heard...

    Dranger replied to AngelfireRN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    That's actually not dumb when considering their generation. In the 60s and early 70s a lot of dentists used to drill and fill teeth for prophylactic reasons even when their was no obvious sign of...
