  1. Should ICU get more pay than floor nursing?!?

    TicTok411 replied to francoml's topic in MICU, SICU

  3. Pulonary nodules--help!

    TicTok411 replied to Pachinko's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    i do not think we need to shame someone for asking a question, especially before having all the facts. The question begs for more informations to determine what is going on. I may ask a dumb...

  5. Online FNP programs

    TicTok411 replied to cnp002's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Are there any FNP programs near you that are not solely online? Many programs offer online formats but have actual campuses and that may be a better route to

  6. Ethical dilemma, what would you do?

    TicTok411 replied to Riburn3's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I agree with above comments but would add that you should tell your boss of your concerns. Like you said he may be unaware but deserves the opportunity to do the right

  7. What to put in a cold cover letter

    TicTok411 replied to smallnurse10's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I found a template when I was creating mine and if you save it you can change it around to match the place you are applying to. First paragraph just states where you are applying and it helps if you...

  8. Salary!?

    TicTok411 replied to roman1006's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am in the interviewing stage and have a facility that told me up front the salaries for positions posted. She also indicated there was room for negotiation (wink wink). I was so relieved to get...

  9. How far would you drive?

    TicTok411 replied to BCgradnurse's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    It depends on how much you hate driving. I drive 57 miles to clinical city and it takes me 1:15-1:30 depending on traffic. The first 12 miles are horrible (to the clinic) but the remaining is...

  11. NP VS PA

    TicTok411 posted a topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I have been asked why one over the other. I even had an early class assignment related to what makes an NP different or unique in the health care setting. I admit I struggled to really "get it". In...

  13. Failed FNP AANP again (4th time) seriously I give up!

    TicTok411 replied to Wakes's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Some people stress out with testing. For my NCLEX I took the advice of a friend to graduated the semester prior. She said read the question and the right answer will jump out at you. Do not try to...

  14. NP working as an RN - advice needed

    TicTok411 replied to MassRN2008's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    That could lead to some interesting conflicts if something where to go the wrong way. Your CNM malpractice would not cover you for working as an RN. The legal implications could be quite juicy. I...

  15. NP Hospitalist question

    TicTok411 posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

  20. AANP failed

    TicTok411 replied to lcharris's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    My school is very difficult with exams going into such minute detail and obscure questions. I resented this at first, but I can pick up a review book and it is total cake! One of the reasons I...

  21. Job Search New FNP

    TicTok411 posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I had a preceptor tell me I should be applying for a job during my final semester. It sounds a bit odd since I will still need to take my boards and apply for the license. Anyone have any input? Did...

  22. Job Search New FNP

    TicTok411 replied to TicTok411's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP
