Of course we can keep in contact! You can message me your email if you like!! And preceptors I am worried about finding this. I found a facebook group that is for SNP that are finding preceptors. They give options and some help other then that I am resorting to walk in clinics and well my own PCP just left so she is out of the question. Just have to start early and dig out there. I just received my syllabus for theories class and boy it is a lot of writing and discussions boards for 6weeks. I am now nervous!!!

Hey Vastib! I ended up choosing Olivet, the non for profit did interest me and the fact I looked up real NP who graduated from there and are working today. I know Chamberlain is new in terms of their FNP. However I only know of those few who have now passed their boards. It is 24months but most schools are like that unless you check out Vanderbilt?

Trust me, I have done my homework on both colleges. I have searched these forums endlessly on feedback but a lot of it is outdated. I have compared the non-for profit (olivet) and for-profit (Chamberlain) FNP options. It kind of has me worried in job outlook who is more willing to accept what education you have gone through. So my question is has anyone gone through Olivet and feel this is a good route? For those in Chamberlain are you feeling like it was worth it? I was also thinking future wise if I were to continue my education is it true most standard colleges will not take for-profit school credits? I know I could apply for somewhere "better" so to speak but my gpa came close to everyone's cut off requirement (rough family times during BSN hurt this) and these 2 places were able to accept it. Really trying to weight also going back into more debt...JOY! Any input would be appreciated!

-Hits call light in a very packed ED for tooth pain and yells "I am dying right now" -"I'm having chest pain" See a box of chicken on person's lap. Take it away to start workup "What are you doing with my chicken I'm hungry" ...you have Chest pain..no chicken for you. -Abdominal pain on a busy night..Hit the call light to complain that your TV doesn't have all the cable channels... -In the middle of a chest pain workup..they are upset because we can't drop everything to plug in your phone. -Call an ambulance for hunger pains. -Call asking if their wife's boil can be seen now in the ER or wait 30min to call PCP. -Wants the only pain med that works for their toe pain "Dalotto" -Drawing up blood and they freak out "YOU ARE TAKING TOO MUCH OF MY BLOOD I'll NEED A TRANSFUSION" -Positive STD "So I got that from using a dirty shaver?" "UH No probably from a dirty other..."

Well Nina or Amber if you made it this far in the thread..probably not due to some "ME Shows". I hope for the best and I pray for your best recovery. You ladies are idols for going in knowing the risks and doing what you love.."Nursing".

I didnt go in alone. Pharmacist came down explained it. There was an order set. Physician explained it but no one was clear on a good way to get it in. I figure a syringe of some sort may have been easier. I was just curious if anyone had here had the experience.

Esme12..knew you'd nail it haha thanks. .is it a good immediate intervention thought or is it more long term?

Last week one of these had to be given in the ED. So many confused looks on even veteran nurses as we tried to figure out this stuff. We were told it is basically like a strong cleaner, pretty potent. So is there a great way of applying this stuff? It was tried with a CBI tubing. However airflow was not able to allow the tubing to breathe..so to speak. Tried looking this up but curious of anyone else's experience with this...it was Rimso 50.

Wow it is very common to have tough teachers. I had one that I referred to as Mrs.Puff from spongebob. She told us that those who pass with C's will be incompetent nurses. Also said those who have test anxiety is a poor excuse for never studying. Was I offended heck yea..I was the C student...J was the test anxiety taker and trust me Id rack my brain over studying. I turned out like a butterfly nurse though lol. How to overcome a tough person..feed them their own food. If she is making fun..laugh and play it. Then prove them wrong. You will face this in any field.
