  1. Why do nurses love for profit schools?

    futureeastcoastNP replied to futureeastcoastNP's topic in School, College Programs

    There are some people who get suckered into this with false promises. It's sad and almost predatory. They likely don't want to wait on a 2-3 year waiting list and then this school comes along and...

  2. internship supervision by preceptor

    futureeastcoastNP replied to dimama's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Boston, you sound like such a wonderful preceptor! I wish they would standardize NP clinicals across the board, maybe as part of the consensus model, with every preceptor learning to follow an outline...

  3. Passed both AANP and ANCC for AGNP

    futureeastcoastNP replied to Bumashes's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Congratulations Bumashes, and I wish you luck on your job search. I had no idea about the 720 hours supervision in MS - after that are you then fully independent? I know in New York they are working...

  4. fnp

    futureeastcoastNP replied to rmv223's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    The reason why is far too long to explain on here, and involves many facets that both affect you on a personal level and the NP profession as a whole. The short version is this: Walden University is a...

  5. Nurse Practitioner Residency Program - will it be necessary?

    futureeastcoastNP replied to DragonNP's topic in Advanced Practice

    You asked twice rather than simply use google if you don't know a

  6. Stale MSN degree? Use it or lose it?

    futureeastcoastNP replied to dfs1961's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Youve been unemployed for 5 years with an RN and

  7. online FNP program no GRE for NC

    futureeastcoastNP replied to eneali's topic in Advanced Practice

    Asking for help finding a program approved in NC is a legitimate question. Asking to find a program that doesn't require the GRE is just lazy. The entrance requirements for NP programs are already...

  8. online FNP program no GRE for NC

    futureeastcoastNP replied to eneali's topic in Advanced Practice

    Just take the GRE. It's graduate school. I know many people on here want to find the EASIEST freakin' route they can to become a provider, but can't you people at least sit for 2-3 hours and take a...

  9. Direct entry to NP or RN to NP?

    futureeastcoastNP replied to Yetzer's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    You mean you've been actively looking for an RN job for 5

  10. AGNP vs FNP

    futureeastcoastNP replied to flipper628's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    If you want a guaranteed job after graduation, become a PMHNP. They are recruited BEFORE they even graduate. Lately, everyone is switching to FNP because they think it's more marketable, but I...

  11. Advanced Pharm online

    futureeastcoastNP replied to bunnyrn401's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I don't get it - you're required to take pharm at a DIFFERENT school in order to graduate on time? That seems

  12. RN (adn) to MSN??????

    futureeastcoastNP replied to muirite's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Do an online ADN to BSN program - those are plentiful, cheap, and can be finished fairly quickly. I know you're not at your best online, but RN to BSN programs aren't especially difficult from what...

  13. Letters after name? FNP, APRN, etc

    futureeastcoastNP replied to futureeastcoastNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Agree. It's called a Nurse Practitioner and yet that's not the official title?? no member of the public says "I just saw an advanced practice registered nurse today for my blood

  14. Weather Policy

    futureeastcoastNP replied to nynursey_'s topic in General Nursing

    12:1 is common on med Surg floors in NY. If they hired twice as many nurses it would 6:1 as it should be. If a few nurses called in the ratio would go up to 8:1, totally manageable and still below...

  15. Weather Policy

    futureeastcoastNP replied to nynursey_'s topic in General Nursing

    So a 6:1 ratio is dangerous and horrible if it's the nurses fault...but a 12:1 ratio (common in many hospitals) is fine and dandy if management deems it so to save money? Where's the outrage over...

  16. Weather Policy

    futureeastcoastNP replied to nynursey_'s topic in General Nursing

    People die if nurses call in during weather emergencies? Cut the drama. ya know what? If hospitals cared enough about their nurses to hire enough of them, then every single nurse wouldn't be...

  17. Weather Policy

    futureeastcoastNP replied to nynursey_'s topic in General Nursing

    Stop defending yourself. Nurses love beating each other down, with whoever is the most sacrificial coming out on top. To many people here, you're supposed to eat, breathe, and sleep nursing. Don't...

  18. Weather Policy

    futureeastcoastNP replied to nynursey_'s topic in General Nursing

    Management lies and says it's all about patients. They prey on the nursing instinct to care, guilting them into risking their lives. The reality is it has nothing to do with patients and everything to...

  19. Letters after name? FNP, APRN, etc

    futureeastcoastNP replied to futureeastcoastNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Thanks Juan. i just read that article and I have a question...it says the AANP is only offering the FNP exam until 2015? So after that the only choice is the ANCC exam? Any idea why they are no longer...

  22. Columbia BSN/MSN ETP 2014

    futureeastcoastNP replied to WavyGravy's topic in School, College Programs

    Only $2,500 is tax deductible per year. And thats a deduction not a credit so it simply lowers taxable income by

  24. Advanced Nursing vs Medicine

    futureeastcoastNP replied to matthewandrew's topic in Advanced Practice

    I agree with Boston: obviously NPs receive less education. The schooling is half as long and not nearly as intense (med students eat, sleep, and breathe school for 4 years while NP students can...

  25. Question BSN To NP
