    LilRNonthePrairie posted a topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

  2. Integrative Health & Healing DNP--is it worth it?

    LilRNonthePrairie replied to LilRNonthePrairie's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    @Tegridy this post is 7 years old. I currently make nearly $200k annually. My education paid off, substantially, but thanks for the "advice" anyway :) P.S. I didn't pursue the full IHH DNP, but...

  3. Presentation college LPN-BSN track-looking for info

    LilRNonthePrairie replied to fifi1's topic in LPN to RN

    I finished the program in May 2014, started Fall 2011. I took a full time course load each semester and was also able to continue working full time through the entire program (I worked overnights as...

  4. Brandman University BSN-DNP 2015

    LilRNonthePrairie replied to justcup's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I have my registration appointment today. Are you going to be staying at a hotel, or do you live close enough to drive each day? I am looking for someone to share a room with, but I am not getting any...

  5. Brandman University BSN-DNP 2015

    LilRNonthePrairie replied to justcup's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I just found out that I was accepted Friday. I will be in the psych track of the BSN to DNP program. I am pretty impressed, because I am from MN and our Nurse Practice Act changed in 2013 so that all...

  6. I was accepted to Brandman, but...

    LilRNonthePrairie posted a topic in Post Graduate Students

    I just found out that I was accepted to Brandman University (Irvine, CA) to start next month their BSN to DNP program. Here's my situation: I am from MN. I didn't realize until I was applying to grad...

  7. I was accepted to Brandman, but...

    LilRNonthePrairie replied to LilRNonthePrairie's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I agree with you, but what if I don't get into one of the local programs? They are extremely competetive because there are only 2 in the entire state of MN for psych, and the acceptance rate is pretty...

  8. I was accepted to Brandman, but...

    LilRNonthePrairie replied to LilRNonthePrairie's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Yes, I realize this now that I have heard from the BON this week. My question is, should I rely on my adviser at Brandman's word that it "will be taken care of" and license all of the faculty that...

  9. EKU MSN

    LilRNonthePrairie replied to mtsteelhorse's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Thanks grandpaj! I actually was accepted to Brandman (Irvine, CA) just today, and supposedly they are willing to do whatever they need to in order for me to be able to attend. I am waiting to hear...

  10. EKU MSN

    LilRNonthePrairie replied to mtsteelhorse's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Well, EKU was a no-go for me I applied, sent over all transcripts...then got the call. I was told that because I am from MN, they are not considering my application. Even though they are approved by...

  11. Is it legal for my supervisor to ask me to alter my charting?

    LilRNonthePrairie posted a topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Recently, I had to write up an incident report, and wrote a progress note in great detail about the events that occurred. My colleague and I were concerned that this client had possibly been neglected...

  12. Is it legal for my supervisor to ask me to alter my charting?

    LilRNonthePrairie replied to LilRNonthePrairie's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    As a side note, when I went back and read the charting for the next few shifts after mine, they really stepped up their care, interventions, and documentation. I really believe it was a case of the...

  13. Is it legal for my supervisor to ask me to alter my charting?

    LilRNonthePrairie replied to LilRNonthePrairie's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I appreciate the input! Without disclosing too much additional information, the charting from the prior shift would indicate that the client had not been adequately cared for. So, to a certain degree,...

  14. NursingCAS is sinking my GPA!

    LilRNonthePrairie posted a topic in Post Graduate Students

    I am applying to several DNP programs, and one of them requires using the NursingCAS application. I received my BSN from a college that offered several NLN challenge exams. I was lucky enough to pass...

    LilRNonthePrairie replied to ValarMorghulis's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Thanks for your reply. Thankfully it just posted today, so all is well. I hope they are quick with the GPA calculation now, although I do agree this is probably a much busier time of year for

  16. University of Minnesota DNP 2015

    LilRNonthePrairie replied to ValarMorghulis's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I am applying to a different track at the U of M, and the deadline for me is 11/1. I am wondering what your experience was like with NursingCAS? How long did it take to process your application? I...

  17. State Requirements for NP Programs

    LilRNonthePrairie replied to LilRNonthePrairie's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Strangely enough, I did call the MN Board of Nursing and they had no knowledge of why certain schools were not accepting students from MN. The person I spoke with told me that starting in 2015, MN is...

  18. State Requirements for NP Programs

    LilRNonthePrairie posted a topic in Post Graduate Students

    I was in the process of applying to a program through EKU, when I received a phone call from one of the admissions reps. She informed me that they aren't accepting students from Minnesota due to the...

  19. EKU MSN

    LilRNonthePrairie replied to mtsteelhorse's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Thank you so much mariomexusa and bluesue! The information helps tremendously. I just finished my application and transcript requests; now to wait for my references to come through. I feel that my...

  20. EKU MSN

    LilRNonthePrairie replied to mtsteelhorse's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I would also like some more info on this program. I have applied to Brandman, which is a 3 year BSN to DNP program. However, I heard that EKU is completely online, which would be preferable to having...

    LilRNonthePrairie posted a topic in Post Graduate Students

    Hey all, I am in the process of applying for Brandman University's Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner program, BSN to DNP track. I am really excited because the admission rep sounded very...

  22. Anyone Considering Brandman's Psych NP Program?

    LilRNonthePrairie replied to LilRNonthePrairie's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Well, I took the GRE yesterday! I think I did alright, but considering Brandman only actually looks at the analytical writing portion, I am still pretty nervous because it takes several days to get a...

  23. Herzing University FNP program?

    LilRNonthePrairie replied to just keep swimming's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I'm from rural MN, and also had spoken with an admission rep from Herzing over the summer. I didn't pursue it any further because I had some of the same concerns as others had posted about. Did you...

  24. What to look over night before NCLEX?

    LilRNonthePrairie replied to LittleCandles's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs
