  1. FNP clinical sites

    Dranger replied to rpiper4922's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Wow that koolaid must have tasted good. I have no idea on what planet one would think students finding their own preceptors is a smart idea. It's purely a decision made out of laziness and greed....

  2. FNP clinical sites

    Dranger replied to rpiper4922's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Keep calling and network. Last resort? Use one of the pay services, but it could cost you $1000-$1500. The fruits of unregulated school accreditation and piss poor admission standards, right?. My PA...

  3. Army Nursing

    Dranger replied to froggy93's topic in Government, Military

    I'm very peachy, thanks. As Pixie said, she blogged about BOLC which is the entry course for Army AMEDD officers. In addition I have probably replied to 10+ threads in the last year (this info doesn't...

  5. Advice please! Beginning to look into NP online programs

    Dranger replied to Sjl.wente's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    There are a ton of programs out there and almost all are easy to get into. Not to sound like a broken record on these forums, but the NP field will soon be saturated because off these said online...

  6. ICU RN Going From Active Duty TO Reserves

    Dranger replied to bsnicu's topic in Government, Military

    Its federal law. Just tell them your drill or training dates and they have to give you time off. If not they can get in BIG trouble. Even with last minute training, it doesn't matter they HAVE to...

  7. ICU RN Going From Active Duty TO Reserves

    Dranger replied to bsnicu's topic in Government, Military

  9. Army Nursing

    Dranger replied to froggy93's topic in Government, Military

    Very competitive. For a new grad (non-ROTC) it's impossible to join. For most specialties 2 years experience minimum is needed and even then there are only a few spots every year that are open. Being...

  11. Moving Florida ARNP

    Dranger replied to doodledome's topic in Advanced Practice

    Even if you did have pharm acceptances, their field is about as saturated as they come. Enjoy your Walgreens/CVS destiny. Every new grad pharmD I know is thoroughly

  12. Weekend option non-bedside positions?

  13. I need a JOB

    Dranger replied to RNnowFNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Plenty of areas are saturated with NPs, it is no different than what a new grad RN goes through. The idea that there is a surplus of APRN jobs is a flat out

  14. 85% the reimbursement of Physicians

    Dranger replied to smd2521's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Stemming the tide of new grads by raising admission standards and cutting down on the proliferation of poor quality schools. Lessen the supply to increase the demand. It's what med schools

    Dranger replied to daniel4444's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Why wouldn't you? More and more hospitals are requiring inpatient NPs to either by ACNPs or go back for a

  16. Moving Florida ARNP

    Dranger replied to doodledome's topic in Advanced Practice

    Um, no. I live in a state with 100% independence for NPs (WA) and is considered, along with Oregon, one of the best places to practice. I don't hear of any massive malpractice suits or any news...

  17. Mobile IV infusions... for hangovers

    Dranger replied to Dogen's topic in General Nursing

    The market for this is mainly a 21-40ish demographic that probably is generally healthy and with decent veins. Cake IV starts for

  18. Mobile IV infusions... for hangovers

    Dranger replied to Dogen's topic in General Nursing

    It is still standard in the Army for medics to hang fluids on drunk soldiers in the barracks after a glorious weekend of partying. For most people getting a litter of LR with added lytes is not going...

  20. I'm confused: CO or RN

    Dranger replied to Angelo.Rodriguez's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    RN by far. While being an RN can have a high burn out rate there are vastly more opportunities and change of pace jobs... Every CO I have known or have heard of could only do the job for a years and...

  22. Graduated 7 months ago FL- still no job!

    Dranger replied to Agriffin2's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Better question, why stay in FL? FL has to be one of the worst states to be a NP practice

  23. blood cultures

    Dranger replied to Nurse_AV's topic in General Nursing

  24. How many is too many ?

    Dranger replied to Conqueror+'s topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Most NP schools are not competitive at all. I would be more worried about getting a job in the future than getting into school. I foresee saturation as being a big
