  1. It may take them a while to send the offer but don’t worry they are always super behind lol it’s all online these days so you’ll accept it officially online! The orientation I think is 2 days 8-4:30 ish then I think a few days on the unit not sure hours, then EMR training that Friday (away from hospital but there’s a shuttle I think! ).
  2. Hey there ! The areas I’d recommend living are Upper Fells Point (Walking distance but a bit hood that you have to walk through), and Mt. Vernon. Mt Vernon is a highly walkable area and there is a hospital shuttle ! The shuttle also goes to home wood (Charles Village, the undergrad campus). If transportation doesn’t mean much to you other places a lot of people live are Fed Hill, Inner Harbor, and Locust Point. If you’d like to live out of trhe city a lot of people commute from Owings Mills via the subway (takes you directly to hospital), and also Towson, and White Marsh !
  3. Glad you chose Hopkins ! Great school and great program, you won't regret it ! ?
  4. Hey there ! I would suggest taking some classes to boost your GPA, undergraduate or graduate relating to PMH or some type of rigorous sciences since you're doing NP. I'd take them from a reputable school. Online even if through an extension school (Harvard extension, ucla extension, for example). Then when applying make sure you submit an academic addendum fully explaining your low GPA. Being honest won't hurt you, but make sure you stress how you arose from your circumstances and is imperative that you show trending up grades(your GPA boosting classes ? ). I think if you do this it would be cheaper and quicker than a masters in something you have no interest in ! Good luck to you and you will get into the right program at the right time. Don't give up !
  5. Id look into Georgetown or Vanderbilt. My school's ACNP requires you to be on campus but I looked into the other two programs when I was thinking on ACNP. Hope that helps. Good luck in your studies !
  6. Seems pretty odd. Is this for incapacitated patients or something? If its not to benefit the patient in anyway I wouldn't bother.
  7. I think it depends on you two personally. Its never been an issue for me. I do work at a huge hospital which he is all over the place but mostly in the OR and I'm usually only on my unit. I can go like a month without seeing him at work or seeing him like 3 times a week at which time I would ask him to stop stalking me lol . That being said, he's my best friend <3, but I still wouldn't want to be in a confined unit/building working closely with him ! hahaha
  8. This is for interview with the nurse manager and share day on the unit ! You'll get an email from the recruiter. Don't worry if it takes awhile to get the email to schedule. They are pretty swamped. lol Good luck !
  9. I would definitely work in a onc ICU or at least MICU floor. All of the heme/onc NPs I had myself as a patient we’re all FNPs not ACNPs. They rotated between the clinic and the hospital. But this was in California, could be a regional thing. Hope that helps ?
  10. I have friends on your unit ! I start on that date as well but in a different ICU. Feel free to message me if you need relocation tips I relocated from far away and I know a bit about the area now !
  11. I remember quite a few people in the same predicament at my hospital when Kim K gave birth the first time !
  12. Magnet hospitals love diversity ! Wear your hair how you want it and own it. If they don't offer you a position based on your hair they aren't worth it anyway ! That would be a major red flag. Good luck to you !
  13. This is why I decided to pursue a career in nursing! Most nurse faculty that I mentioned this to are confused to say the least, or try to point me in another more familiar AP practice direction. Most APP I see in this role are in cardiac surgery interestingly enough! I'm paving my own way at them moment, not only for myself but for other nurses to follow later in hopes that its easier for them. Nice article !
