  1. It's time to vent!!!

    sauce replied to MegRyanGirl's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    America is the land of entitled wimps. We've grown

  2. APRNs should only be DNPs!

    sauce replied to Lovanurse's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    I suppose a butt wipe ologist could throw in the coefficient of kinetic friction when wiping to determine the maximal butt wipe force able to be applied without causing a skin tear. Of course this...

  3. APRNs should only be DNPs!

    sauce replied to Lovanurse's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    At least the good nursing schools require people to take the teas before they enter in. So at least some nurses know what mitochondria are. I'd say most probably think it's a bone disease though. But...

  4. APRNs should only be DNPs!

    sauce replied to Lovanurse's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    But it wouldn't be nursing if it had a lot of science

  5. Paging Doctor Nurse

    sauce posted a topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    I, myself have no intent on ever getting a DNP. All personal reasons aside, the rational behind my decision is due to the lack of benefit of spending a large sum of money on this degree. This does not...

  6. Why DNP and not MD?

    sauce replied to koreanjohn32's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    make sure to get between the crevices. Sometimes those spots are missed. I suppose you all do assessments too, not that anybody ever looks at those, except the next nurse who comes on shift so they...

  7. How do you explain the DNP?

    sauce replied to FreudianSlip's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    How I would end the war between nurse practitioners and doctors Nurse practitioners, doctors, and the lost art of diagnosis All of those studies posted are pretty biased. I mean cmon you know they are...

  8. How do you explain the DNP?

    sauce replied to FreudianSlip's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    written by nurses in a journal for nursing will a small sample size and too many variables. Science obviously. Plus how do you control for all of the consults? I mean really? It isn't like the care is...

  9. How do you explain the DNP?

    sauce replied to FreudianSlip's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    I have chips on my shoulder all the time, usually not for long periods since they just dip them in me, but yeah he does. if somebody made fun of my profession i could care less. People get so angry...

  10. How do you explain the DNP?

    sauce replied to FreudianSlip's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    some nurses think way too highly of themselves. I mean cmon when you have to resort to calling people laypersons to invalidate his or her claim you know you are in fallacy. Thats okay I'll sit here...

  11. How often do you do nerve blocks and PA Cath insertions?

    sauce replied to Bluebolt's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    It isn't our decision though. You and I probably do not agree on everything, but I do think (surprisingly) that CRNAs should be able to place more lines than they do. But it isn't up to you or I, it...

  12. How do you explain the DNP?

    sauce replied to FreudianSlip's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    I highly doubt we will ever completely replace doctors, or even come close. Where are the facts behind this? You leave out lobbing and the increasing amount of medical knowledge which cannot be...

  13. How often do you do nerve blocks and PA Cath insertions?

    sauce replied to Bluebolt's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Hey don't be mad at me its administration and the docs that make the call. Im just telling how it is. Don't ask a question if you don't like the answer. None of my buds who are CRNAs place that many...

  14. New Grad - First Job

    sauce replied to LoloFNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    pretty much every job people post on here for new grads is awful. They really do try to ream us nurse practitioners. Especially the new grads. Id laugh if they wanted me to see 4-5 patients per hour...

  15. New grad first job

    sauce replied to Junondfnp's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    salaried is a very dangerous word. Sounds like you might be working like 60 hours a week with that schedule. I would be wary. Also, I would wary that he is adding work. He is basically leaving the...

  16. How often do you do nerve blocks and PA Cath insertions?

    sauce replied to Bluebolt's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I put in a cv cath a couple times but was supervised. Hospital where i worked at and also the one i am at now doesn't allow anybody but physicians to put them in without supervision. You sort of...

  17. New grad offer, need input

    sauce replied to eftxrnpnp's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    no way. unless you cant get any other offers. You could at least counter. If other opportunes were available I would not take that job sounds like you will be working like a dog. 25-30 ppt per day lol...

  18. Why DNP and not MD?

    sauce replied to koreanjohn32's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    Never really understood the DNP for a leadership position. I mean why not just get an MBA they are cheaper if you shop around in most cases and actually teach useful stuff. Its not like a DNP is going...

  19. Why DNP and not MD?

    sauce replied to koreanjohn32's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    I like my swayt tay baby. I live in the south, originally from the north. Reminds me of one of my bosses when I worked a fast food restaurant down in (insert southern state here). I was mixing the...

  20. Why DNP and not MD?

    sauce replied to koreanjohn32's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    Lol, that is the attitude of many nurses too, even in undergraduate I had that attitude. Trust me, it was quickly washed away. They should really make nurse practitioners sit for the step one exam. It...

  21. Why DNP and not MD?

    sauce replied to koreanjohn32's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    All of the boards of such and such nursing say it indirectly all the time. I mean they can't just come out and say "We Iz Doktur" since the backlash would be horrendous. but they can come out and say...

  22. Why DNP and not MD?

    sauce replied to koreanjohn32's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    Well, since I am in er. one might be since i make 55-65 an hour depending on shifts, plus some wicked benefits and like a month off per year.. Not bad.. better than most types of employed jobs out...

  23. Why DNP and not MD?

    sauce replied to koreanjohn32's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    yeah the numbers just do not match up. And i know for a fact that regular RN experience does not teach you what you need to know to be a provider. It helps, less than most think, but overall it does...

  24. NP in.....fitness and wellness?

    sauce replied to greygooseuria's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Or if your feeling extra spicy make a moderate sized facility and let a PT (not personal trainer, an actual physical therapist) use it for his or her clients while collecting a fee from the

  25. University of Texas or Univ of Phoenix?

    sauce replied to arcelyn0312's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I would never go to a for profit school. I am sure trauma is a great provider but probably not secondarily to the schools education but his or her drive, motivation, and talent to become a good...
