    CocoaLoverFNP replied to mcnabd's topic in Immigration Advice

    Your work experience is impressive! However, getting a job in the US will depend on your immigration status. If you do not have any working visa or green card, the process would be tedious and with...

  3. RETROGRESSION ISSUE

    CocoaLoverFNP replied to yhcellie's topic in Immigration Advice

    Agencies, from my own experience do not have any idea about how long retrogression would take. Even immigration lawyers are not able to predict either. Mine took 10 years. However, don't lose hope. It...

  5. How do you get time to plan your wedding? I am stressing out!

    CocoaLoverFNP replied to ttlovingnurse's topic in Nursing Humor

    Hey, this is typical! I remember those days when I was stressing out about my own wedding. My husband is not into wedding planning so I planned it all (I am glad that I was in charge though hehe). I...

  6. Immigration lawyer?

    CocoaLoverFNP replied to Simonesays's topic in Immigration Advice

    I hired an immigration lawyer because I didn't want to go through the hassle of filling out paperwork and studying the immigration laws. However, remember that this will not expedite the process. Good...

  7. Any FNP out there that went to a for profit online university out there?

    CocoaLoverFNP replied to Ptrv12's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    It's frustrating that this type of thinking exists. Hiring managers should hire employees based on their education, credentials, experience, leadership, awards, and of course, the interview. The...

  8. Any FNP out there that went to a for profit online university out there?

    CocoaLoverFNP replied to Ptrv12's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    NP students do not expect to be solely spoon-fed by their schools to earn their education and skills. While I was in school, our cohort attended conferences, live reviews, extra classes, skills lab,...

  10. Lab values interpretation for "beginners."

    CocoaLoverFNP replied to nurselove757's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Yes! NPs are good at interpreting labs. They are great critical thinkers. Some of them are even better than some of the doctors. Not sure if I am understanding what you want to know or understand...

  11. Lab values interpretation for "beginners."

    CocoaLoverFNP replied to nurselove757's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    The lab book assigned to us was the Mosby's Manual of Diagnostic and Lab Tests. Each value is explained and would also tell you what an increased/decreased value would mean. It would not tell you the...

    CocoaLoverFNP replied to nurselove757's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

  16. Lab values interpretation for "beginners."

    CocoaLoverFNP replied to nurselove757's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I would know what to do with a patient with an Hgb of 4. But she asked what to do for someone who has that value. Although we didn't have a course that was dedicated to "lab values" only, we were...

  19. What does an order of "Q2D" mean to you?

    CocoaLoverFNP replied to Manofstone's topic in General Nursing

    I never seen Q2D ordered.... EVER in my entire life! I wouldn't even try to decipher it either as I'd like to protect my license from doctors who write orders like this. I would call the doctor and...

    275 mg vs. 300 mg So yes, i would consider it a med error despite whatever way anyone would like to look at it :) I wouldn't call it prescribing. Prescribing is totally different. I would call the...

    CocoaLoverFNP replied to Neurotic Student's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

  24. AANPCP or the ANCC Exam

    CocoaLoverFNP replied to FNPbound54's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Test: I can't really comment because I only took the AANPCP. However, the AANPCP exam was difficult. I don't think I will pass if I didn't study. I was well-prepared so some questions were easy. But...
