  1. Cardiologist & Pulmonologist hires

    BDWilliams09 replied to Nolagrace1202's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Cardiology will most often use ACNP. I have seen nephrology use FNP for outpatient dialysis but it all depends on where you want to work. If you want to see patients in primary care or work in a...

  2. How am i going to learn if only writing papers?

    BDWilliams09 replied to mtg0884's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I guess it depends on which program your are at and the specialty you choose but I do not feel my program is focused on paper writing. Each semester there is 1-2 papers but none of them have been too...

  3. Beating a dead horse but ANP primary vs acute

    BDWilliams09 replied to Knight Owl's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I am currently at Emory University in the acute care program and while it is true most of us train in the icu's you certainly do not have to. Basically if you want to work inpatient you have to be...

  4. direct entry NP vs. BSN-NP

    BDWilliams09 replied to dcwang's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    It depends on your long term goals and where you would like to work. Most direct entry programs are designed to prepare you for primary care (FNP). I am told by the programs trying to get the money...

  5. NP a career for me?

    BDWilliams09 replied to teenyfish's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

  6. Does where you received your BSN matter?

    BDWilliams09 replied to brian.lansing's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I think to be accepted to top rated NP programs name recognition does matter to a degree. I am currently at Emory University and I received my undergraduate from the University of Oklahoma. These...

  7. CRNA interested in FNP

    BDWilliams09 replied to alilab's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I'm not familiar with Texas but many states are passing legislation requiring FNP's to obtain post master certificates if they wish to continue in the acute care setting. Sounds like it may be to your...

  8. NP and CRNA program combined

    BDWilliams09 replied to guest769224's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I researched CRNA and Acute Care NP programs quite extensively before I decided the tract I wished to pursue and I am not aware of any university offering both. I've tried to reason through your angle...

  9. What is post master's NP certificate?

    BDWilliams09 replied to ode2BeRN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Grad school is expensive and time consuming. Before I invested that kind of money I would recommend you do some soul searching and try to focus your long term goals. The two degrees you are mentioning...
