  1. South Florida RN salary???

    I live in the ft. Lauderdale area and I make 38.20 in the ICU. I get $5 differential for nights, and 3.75 for weekend differential. I have been a RN for 15 years. Our ratio for ICU is 2:1. With 6 years of experience, you're probably looking at 27-29/...
  2. Nurse Corps Loan Repayment 2016 Cycle

    Wow.... Thanks for all the info. I applied for this year... This is my first time. Fingers crossed and praying!!
  3. New grad opportunity

  4. New grad opportunity

    Which Cleveland Clinic is this? We have one in Florida also. Thanks
  5. Overtime pay?

    I see. Thanks for your input. I really don't want to work too much extra so it really needs to be worth while for me to do it. I feel at $100/HR, it's worth it.
  6. Overtime pay?

    Hi everyone, I am currently a salaried Neurosurgery NP and I'm working 10 HR night shifts. There is no other coverage for those other 3 nights that I'm not working. They are looking to hire someone but haven't found the right candidate yet. I would ...
  7. Overtime pay?

    What do you mean by "this is what I make to contract"?
  8. Nurse Corps Loan Repayment 2016 Cycle

    No, this is the first time for me. Have you applied before?
  9. Overtime pay?

    Thanks for the pointer! I'm new at all of this negation stuff!
  10. Overtime pay?

    Thanks Katie, I just don't want to be ridiculous with what I'm asking for since it's almost double of my hourly pay. It would come out to $1,000 a night.
  11. NP pay per hour vs specialty?

    I'm a new neurosurg NP (with 15 years RN neuro ICU exp) and I'm making 111k. I was offered primary care positions from 80-90k prior to taking this position. I live in south FL.
  12. Army recruiter says I should join as LPN with BSN

    Do not do it... With a BSN you should be able to join as a commissioned officer. I did army nurse corps but I was not a Nurse yet. They put me through school for nursing. That recruiter is full of crap!
  13. FNP wanting to specialize

    In our practice we have 7 ARNPs, only 2 are ACNPs. The rest of us are FNP. Our practice hires based on your experience as a NP or RN. Most of us came from our Neuro/trauma ICU as nurses.
  14. FNP wanting to specialize

    I thought of doing the same thing but now that I've started paying my student loans, I don't want to rack up more debt for no reason!
  15. Inpatient NP hours

    I am a neurosurgery NP and I do 4-10s
  16. FNP wanting to specialize

    I am a FNP and work in neurosurgery. My physicians actually prefer FNPs rather than Adult or acute NPs. In our service, we see children and adults. Only the FNPs are allowed to document on the pediatric pts in our hospital system.
  17. Nurse Corps Loan Repayment 2016 Cycle

    RNdynamic, first of all, I am jealous that you have no loans. I had no loans for my BSN program but unfortunately I had to take loans for my FNP Program. It's a government program that pays up to 85% of your loans.
  18. Nurse Corps Loan Repayment 2016 Cycle

    RN4KU, no my loans were uploaded without any issues.
  19. Nurse Corps Loan Repayment 2016 Cycle

    I just submitted my application! Looks like we have a long time before we find out any information! Crossing fingers and praying!
  20. Sitting for AANP boards

    I did the FNP exam.
  21. Sitting for AANP boards

    I just took the exam last week. Sounds like you're doing everything you need to do to be prepared. It wasn't as bad as I though my it would be a lot! There was a lot of derm, musculoskeletal, endo, and normal physiological changes in the elderly. Goo...
