Hello all I am will be starting a graduate program (hopefully) at the beginning of next year. I am currently re-taking statistics as my course was over 10 years ago. I keep going back and forth about FNP and CNM. I feel more interested in becoming...

Is anyone an alumni from Kaplan of your FNP? I'm not finding many people in the students section and I would love to ask you a few questions if so. I am thinking of applying but just want to choose a good program. Thank you in advance!

Thank for all the responses :-) Yes being on my own right out of graduate school would make me nervous... the few midwives I've spoken with said that you would transfer a lot of patients in the beginning just because you aren't as comfortable... ev...

Are there any CNM on here that work out of hospital? Home or birth center?

Hello everyone I am looking for input for someone who has been there or has any experience or advice to offer. I am wanting to return to graduate school to become a NP. I have been a RN for almost 9 years... I have always worked in some cardiology s...

That is how it is when I work triage/rounding with our cardiology group in patient... usually out late and very busy. The CV surgery used to have their own nurses too but a few years ago they changed and now only NP round for them.

I'm just curious what a typical day is like for them.... how many patients they normally take at a time for a solo practice. I have an 18 month old daughter and we are planning on having more children. I am interested in midwifery and the whole nat...

I am wondering if I need to give up on the thought of getting to work locally.... our local hospital is critical access so it is small. I don't see much need for even a rounding nurse or a nurse practitioner to assist the hospital. I guess that cou...

I was hoping some of them were on here so I could pick their brain :-)

Yes I've found a few schools that offer dual degrees but they aren't online and we don't live anywhere near them.... moving right now isn't really a good option for us so sadly those are out :-( I would be all over it otherwise!!!

Hello all I am currently a nurse in the ER... I also work PRN as a rounding and triage nurse for the Cardiologist group in a large metropolitan hospital. I have two very different interests... I like critical care/cardiology and I also am very inte...

Haha... well I have to admit before I ever experienced pregnancy/birth.. before I ever truly researched it and read A LOT about it I always thought those "crunchy hippy" people were crazy. There is a LOT of benefit to a lot of the practice. Now we'...

Hello all, I'm not really sure where to post this.. it would fit into a couple topics but I don't see an area for Lactation, Birth educators etc even though many are nurses I guess you don't have to be. Anyway.. I live in a rural area - it is about a...

Our local hospital does provide a class but it is the normal hospital class. I would focus on a natural birthing class such as a bradley method, hypo babies etc... I wouldn't take that specific class but I would make it one of the 10-12 week natural...

Hello, I am an ER nurse. I've been a RN for 8 years. I also fill in as a triage/rounding nurse for a cardiology group in the hospital. I have been thinking a outing getting my NP for years but it never seemed like the right time and now I have a ve...

What University did you attend? I must clarify I meant no travel as in the programs that require you to do part of your work on the campus and part online.. I understand all program will have you visit twice usually for skills but I have found some p...

Hello everyone I work in a very small rural hospital as the lone educator for the entire hospital. I've been here about 4 months... Our diabetic educator recently retired and they have decided to not hire a new diabetic educator. Instead I am to make...

Thanks for your response!! :-) I can't pm you becuase I don't have enough posts but I would love to know the materials/resources you used. Thanks so much!

Does anyone know of any nurse educators that work from home? I am the clinical education coordinator at a small rural hospital. We just had our first baby and I am considering leaving my position to go PRN and return to the large metro hospital and...

Hello everyone I am not sure if it is best to post this here or in the specialty of nurse staff development (this normally doesn't fall under education responsibilities in some of the bigger hospitals so I didn't know if it really fit in that group)....

Thank you for your suggestions!! :-) We aren't using the book we are using their online program... you get log ins and it is automatically updated by lippincott which is nice.. granted they've probably been paying for it for multiple years and never...
