    Very very nervous ANCC

    I'd be more worried if you had high confidence. In my experience, arrogant students are usually the ones who need to study up. A little fear is healthy. After reading your post, I'm sure you'll do...

    NP Jobs still looking pretty good.

    All great comments about Psych, but I really wanted to give a little encouragement to counter some of the negative rhetoric that seems to be common on the NP threads. NP is a great field that will...

    Any NPs in EMS or the Fire Dept?

    At a professional meeting several years ago, I met a NP who worked for the San Antonio FD. He told me he just did physicals that were required for the job. He didn't write Rx's or schedule test, he...

    I've been an NP for 3 years and make 160K and get amazing benefits with taking call every 8 weeks (telephone only), and working an extra 8 hours a month. This is the easiest job I've ever had,...

    Anyone not have an MA?

    My current job, they have tried to have me room once, I said absolutely not. They were feeling out NP's and didn't know how to treat us, now they do. I agree with others who say if the MD has it...

    Should I sign other NP's order

    For me it would depend on my comfort level with the order and the accessibility of the patients chart. The company has a responsibility to the duty that they've established with the patient until...

    Shocked by MD attitude

    It's easy to get in a rut when you've been a provider for a while. Your fresh eyes is just what that patient needed. Kudos to you, forget what the MD is saying. He needs an attitude adjustment....

    New nurse practitioner

    I don't blame employers for being critical of online programs. My FNP was an online program but I had over 20 years RN experience. Even so, my first 2 years made me nervous. And I'm the kind of guy...
