  1. Does anyone have or know of any resources I could utilize to learn commonly prescribe

    RobBSNRN replied to brownsc2's topic in General Students

    I like the pay version, not too expensive and gives you more than just

  2. Nurses are Not Doctors

    RobBSNRN replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    Where is your studies that DNP's do not introduce themselves this way? Odd that the professionals who proclaim science and evidence as their domain do not use any in their

  3. Nurses are Not Doctors

    RobBSNRN replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    All of them?... really? Even the research done by MD's for non-nursing journals? Talk about conspiracy theories. Anyone have the link to the guy who thinks all our politicians have been replaced by...

  4. Nurses are Not Doctors

    RobBSNRN replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    Nurses never have been equivalent to TA's but lets just put that aside and focus on the analogy. Should TA's prove to be just as good at teaching as the "real" teachers over 50 years and hundreds of...

  5. Nurses are Not Doctors

    RobBSNRN replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    That's good, you sound like the kind of physician i'd appreciate! But is it really about confusing the patient? Because if psychologists without an MD (PhD's only) do not confuse patients or draw...

  6. Nurses are Not Doctors

    RobBSNRN replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    I think the appropriate phraseology is Dr. Xyz I will be your nurse practitioner for today or whatever. It may depend more on hospital politics... Some places only allow medical doctors to be called...

  7. Are online ANP degrees destroying our credibility?

    RobBSNRN replied to jilljw's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    So do we have the licensing exam more difficult to "prove our credibility"? I don't see how that would fly.. Not that I am against it in principle i'm not. I actually go to a B & M NP school with...

  8. Nurses are Not Doctors

    RobBSNRN replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    Not a completely separate job. There are tons of overlapping areas in scopes of practice. But they ARE different. Just because something use to be the sole scope for a physician doesn't mean it is...

  9. Are online ANP degrees destroying our credibility?

    RobBSNRN replied to jilljw's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    ... Where is the evidence online programs produce lower quality NPs than the ones that have been diagnosing and prescribing since

  10. Nurses are Not Doctors

    RobBSNRN replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    They are already providing care to whole families in this capacity. They aren't looking to expand into anything except to remove a pointless piece of paper that costs them 10s of thousands a year for...

  11. Are online ANP degrees destroying our credibility?

    RobBSNRN replied to jilljw's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    NPs and MDs aren't the same thing and I don't think any NP is trying to be an MD. If that's what they wanted they would go to medical school. What constitutes the scope of practice for each profession...

  12. Etoh testing

    RobBSNRN replied to sosorryandlost's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Hmm no I don't think so. You will do fine if you don't drink! Good luck

    RobBSNRN replied to brownsc2's topic in General Students

    Micromedix or epocrates

  14. Nurses are Not Doctors

    RobBSNRN replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    TU RN: That is the heart of the issue isn't it? Some MDs are saying that by treating, diagnosing, and managing patient illness as they have been doing for the last 50 years nurse practitioners are...

  15. Nurses are Not Doctors

    RobBSNRN replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    Makes sense, thanks. I think I can appreciate and respect the education and value MDs bring to the table while also completely supporting NP independence (my extreme preference would be residency's...

  16. Nurses are Not Doctors

    RobBSNRN replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    Arg I think the point is that there are NO legitimate (or otherwise) studies that show NP's provide a sub par standard of care (largely in primary care) vs medical doctors. There is a single study...
