  5. DNP by 2015- official retraction?

    I've heard the opposite. That DNP programs are closing and transitioning back to MSN-NP, because of lack of applicants. As a future NP student, I see little incentive to pursue a DNP. No pay...

  10. Nicu cna

    No, I very much enjoy it. It has many perks over being a CNA on a med/surg floor. However, as a nurse it would surely be more stressful than the work a CNA does. I did have experience. Worked my way...

    For clarification purposes, it's worth mentioning the Army paid for most of this, on this particular poster. 120k out of your own pocket is

    My dream job is the Newborn ICU. I work as a tech in one currently and have a new grad job offer. I did that purposely to assure I'd start in my dream specialty. I agree, this website is a treasure...

    Take a look at this thread if you haven't already done so.
  17. What is my best course of action: ICU or ED tech?

    Apply as an ICU tech. Do it quickly, as you won't be a valuable asset if you graduate with your RN soon. Make sure you go above and beyond in your work ethic, and prove to the team you are a good...
  18. Is it still financially worth it to become CRNA?

    So many people go into CRNA with their eyes on the $$$ signs when you can make just as much as a NP, if you play your cards right. And you are almost always tied to a hospital as a CRNA. Pros and...

  23. What job be better while in nursing school?

    If you can afford to pick up and leave for a short time, go for it. I traveled 400 miles for my CNA program to get it done quick. Considering your circumstances I'd probably choose EMT. With it, you...
  24. What job be better while in nursing school?

    The way I looked at it, I got my CNA for two reasons: 1. More job opportunities and wider range of settings in jobs 2. A CNA job in a hospital, or nursing home, can get you a job as a new grad RN once...
