2. DO/MD?

   Chris-FNP replied to janine3&5's topic in General Nursing

   A DO and an MD are essentially the same. They both go to medical school and they both have to go through a residency program. A DO actually does a bit more because he or she not only practices...

   Chris-FNP replied to micknmel's topic in General Nursing

   I have OCD and it does stink so I understand your problem. My OCD waxes and wanes. Sometimes its real bad and other times its just annoying. Right now, its bad. Whether this helps or not, I'm 28...

4. For Level2Trauma; Chris-FNP

   Chris-FNP replied to Q.'s topic in General Nursing

   Wow!!! Again, who has the right to judge anybody? Who compared Ativan to heroin? This is foolish. There are plenty of nurses and doctors that take drugs like Ativan, Buspar, Paxil, Prozac, Zoloft,...

   You forgot "PR" Ouch!!! If I'm ever admitted to the hospital and I see a "PR" order in my chart, you better be damn sure that even in my dazed and confused state, that "R" will be turned into an "O"...

   I think I'm going to start wearing a cap, a white skirt, and thong underwear. Now that's a male nurse!!! (kidding...really kidding) ;-)

7. RNs versus NPs?

   Chris-FNP replied to Kadie-NP's topic in General Nursing

   Navy Nurse, I agree with you. I wasn't really addressing Ph.D. Nurses in particular because they do tend to be researchers. I also agree that positional respect is a lot easier to earn than what you...

8. RNs versus NPs?

   Chris-FNP replied to Kadie-NP's topic in General Nursing

   I agree with chili2641. People keep stressing experience...and experience is VERY important. However, education is also a critical factor in educating BSNs and NPs. Yes, experience is crucial to...

9. Is it me...or has the internet made people lazier?

   Chris-FNP replied to 2ndCareerRN's topic in General Nursing

   Hey haji, Here is a thought...it probably takes more effort to actually post a question here and wait for replies than it does simply typing in a key word on a search engine. So your reasoning makes...

10. Professional Attire for Nurses

    Chris-FNP replied to RNforLongTime's topic in General Nursing

    Wow, I'm honored I've made it into a thread twice!!! (kidding) Anyway, I think nurses should do what everyone else has done...change with the times. You can look professional in anything within...

11. Is it me...or has the internet made people lazier?

    Chris-FNP replied to 2ndCareerRN's topic in General Nursing

    I am not offended, but the fact that this bothers you is pretty weird. Not to mention the fact that if you used your head, you would realize that a lot of people happen to know of obscure sites that...

12. RNs versus NPs?

    Chris-FNP replied to Kadie-NP's topic in General Nursing

    I have a feeling that some of this RN versus NP stuff has to do with job satisfaction. If your an RN, and love your job, you probably don't have any ill feelings towards NPs (even the NPs that went...

    Chris-FNP replied to patty26's topic in General Nursing

    RN-NP relations? Hmmm. That's a tough question to answer. I don't know if there will ever be a real solution. There are so many dynamics involved. Ultimately, it comes down to just people and...
