    I love my nurse coaching career. I spent ten years at the bedside. ICU, med surge and 5 in the emergency room. Best thing I did was get out of the hospital. Try working as a nurse in the community....
  3. Nursing School Blues - I feel trapped!

    I totally understand!!! Nursing today has changed. Even since I came into the profession ten years ago. The nurse is now the price that is paid for the decisions of administration. And the patients...

  7. UNC DNP 2015

    Ok. I'll email you. WSSU probably does have one. I'm only interested in psych - so I only have two options. UNC or USA. They are the only 2 schools in NC who have the PMHNP. I prefer online. I did my...
  8. Ok the CON emailed me back. I had to update my application with something. I was told that it was placed in my file, for when they review everything. Made me think it's going to be quite a while until...

  10. New Grad Job Market PMHNP

    When in doubt. Don't do it. If your not sure, then it's not the time. That's why you should start out and get some experience as an RN first. There are overtime options available, and most RN's will...

    I would see a career coach. They will help you reach a
  12. New Grad Job Market PMHNP

    The "top brass" are usually the reasons for all the problems in healthcare today. Their opinion means little to most experienced nurses who know how the game truly works. As a patient, give me an NP...
  13. Duke Nursing, how do I pay for it !!!

  16. Positivity needed

    I recieved a reprimand 8 years ago and am enjoying a successful career, I am in Nursys, but it was a medication error on a narcotic - gave it without a verbal order, and the FDA require all miscounts...
  17. New Grad Job Market PMHNP

    Yes I agree. You'll earn money - a decent living in the meantime. Then your employer can pay for your graduate education.
  18. Nurse Portfolio Question

    Thank you. I'll look at those options. I never kept evals and CEU's . Seemed like way to much
  19. New Grad Job Market PMHNP

    You will have to pass the NCLEX to be able to move forward with the PMHNP
  20. New Grad Job Market PMHNP

    They do offer them. You will have to take a whole bunch of pre reqs in nursing classes and you still have to pass the NCLEX. You will need to commence some kind of work as an RN, just to keep your RN...
  21. New Grad Job Market PMHNP

    If you are not already an RN, then you need to do that first. You will need to take the NCLEX. Which is no light test. You will need so much more before you are ready for PMHNP. I've been an RN for...
  22. Nurse Portfolio Question

    I can't go back and get all my CEU's there are just too many. How long did this take for you to put together.? Is it all on paper ? Is it in a big fold out binder? Do you put all your original...
  23. UNC DNP 2015

    Absolutely!!! It's aggravating - especially because I thought there was a push for nurses to obtain their DNP. It would make sense to have more DNP slots and less msn slots. I won't give up either -...
  24. This was my first time applying. I want PSYCH. They only took 5. I feel pretty deflated. I'm in NC and the only other school that is authorized in the state of nc for this program is south alabama....
