  1. Allina Health not hiring online NP grads

    I think we should take action and petition the credentialing bodies to remove the credentials of the FOR PROFIT schools, or atleast raise the the dang standard. Letters flooding in would surely get...
  2. Is it not ironic to argue for more science courses when someone also states there is already insufficient time to learn what is already required? This is the exact reason why I support the terminal...
  3. I agree with psychguy, but he most likely does not remember the mechanism of action to dipeptidyl peptidas-4 inhibitors because he hardly prescribes it therapeutically (outside continue home mess)....
  4. Question from a doc on NP education

    For anonymity if you really want to know just PM me. I am quite proud of my school but due to the size of enrolled students I could be inevitably giving away my name. Good luck in your program...
  5. Question from a doc on NP education

    I am presently finishing up my Nurse Practitioner education at one of the best NP schools in the South East, and I had to take a whole semester long class on reading general films (chest and...
  6. Interesting!!

    On a personal note though I do support PAs getting a doctorate if they want to. This article was interesting to read and it will be even more interesting to see where things evolve to in the
  7. Interesting!!

    Very true..... I am sure there are nurses here that did better in one subject and didn't do as great in another (medsurg vs
  8. Interesting!!

    In addition, this could work out for the best for all parties. If Phyiscian assistants can obtain independent practice through doctorate education the medical community wouldn't have much of an...
  9. Interesting!!

    Psychguy I really respect your knowledge and comments here on allnurses, but in all do respect I believe off label was referencing capability. Because I wouldn't want anyone who couldn't get an A to...
  10. May I ask what school you attended? I am surprised they haven't offered to
  11. Difficulty of NP education

    This is a topic for those whom have already graduated Nurse Practitioner school; what was your experience? Did you find NP school to be more difficult, as difficulty, or less difficult than nursing...
  12. Difficulty of NP education

    Thank you for your reply. I completely agree with you that for new graduates whom have had only a few years of RN experience should undergo a fellowship/residency of some sort. We have a duty to our...
  13. Attempts passing boards

    Since I can't vote I'll state my opinion. I believe a NP should have two-four times on boards. The range is for extraneous variables do to life. If a NP fails on their fourth they must do some serious...
  14. Attempts passing boards

    How many times does the "allnurses" community think it is okay to retake the board exams prior to remediation? For instance what's everyone's opinion on having to take boards six or more times?...

  16. Are my concerns.....

    Are my concerns justified?? I recently was notified by an excellent senior nurse that she will be going back to school for her nurse practitioner. Her desire to continue her education at 60...
  17. Are my concerns.....

    I guess all I can say is I love learning and I am fortunate to have friends, mentors, and colleagues with the same passion. It just sucks that we are views as consumers more so than
  18. Are my concerns.....

    Thanks for the insight Jules!... I just feel bad when the school does a crappy job making sure students know they have other options. But you are right schools are businesses. It just sucks to come...
  19. Are my concerns.....

    I personally have decided to move to a rural area to cover my loans. With undergrad alone it's crazy. For the rest of my life I'll be farmer studentFNP16 nurse practitioner haha. But I doubt the...
  20. Are my concerns.....

    Yeah, most likely a very bad advisor. The education system just appears to be greedy. Raising costs and then the push for everyone needing a
  21. Are my concerns.....

    I am sorry if I construed a ageist opinion, that is honestly not he case. I just find it deplorable that schools can charge so much and be happy because they get paid automatically by the federal...
  22. Are my concerns.....

    I told every option I knew of, such as Nurse corps, working in a rural area, our hospital will pay 5000 per year for a two year commitment, and that our school does a payment plan as well. I just find...
