  6. Eliminating Physicians/Medical Schools

    dont patients with residents and ACNP still have to have attendings round on the patients on a daily basis. I think at most hospitals this is required, at least for billing purposes, so the care isn't...
  7. To the APRN Curriculum Critics

    it would be helpful to have had an understanding of functional groups and biochem prior to APRN school. If anything at all is to be added it should be that and a basic anatomy course, since regular A...

    same thing, except our charts don't need
  9. Eliminating Physicians/Medical Schools

    Aren't these studies like focused on simple algorithm type disease like HTN and DM2? Most of these are old. Anybody in their right mind would know that nurse practitioners cannot handle everything...
  10. I would probably say that CRNAs are the one, where on average, they are able to provide a pretty similar level of care than MD/DOs coworkers. I will not say this of CNM, FNP, etc. Anesthesia seems to...
  11. All the degrees, no job

    I just don't see the use of it. It provides no economic benefit really outside of academics. But this can be said of many PHD degrees in many fields too. in physics, chemistry, biology, engineering,...

  14. Nps in the er

    nips and naps are hard in the cold ER. No time to sleep, and shirt piercing nips, you know, since its so cold. We can do all the basic procedures, depending on what your comfortable with. Usually if...
  15. APRNs should only be DNPs!

    Fluffiness is for pillows, not degrees. Degrees should be hard, uncomfortable, and difficult to obtain. Usually the ones worth pursuing
  16. Eliminating Physicians/Medical Schools

    Because they'd likely lead patients who need referral based care to the slaughter with that type of arrogance and not know what to refer
  17. Eliminating Physicians/Medical Schools

    Hope this is a joke lol. If not please give names of your peers so we can place them on a do not hire list or better yet at a
  18. Nursing student in East Tennessee

    east tn is pretty saturated in the health care area. Mostly because the economy is not that great and there are not many other jobs. Even some docs have trouble finding great paying positions in east...

    medical school, hands down. Ive been out of NP school a few years. never made less than 100k, but Im still going back to medical school. Start in the fall and can't wait. All my bosses at work (er...
  20. All the degrees, no job

    I looked into the DNP a while back, and felt the same way you did. Just more cotton candy to chew on but nothing really healthy or helpful. It seemed to try to cover so much base in so little time....
  21. All the degrees, no job

    I also felt much of the nursing degree i obtained (at the masters level) was much of worthless stuff that does not help in practice. Learning to diagnose, treat and prescribe in a 17 month program is...
  22. Why preceptors don't precept

    I've had some people say the reason they don't precept is because "they'll take er jerbz" (south park quote). More students= more future np = job competition. At least thats the going word in some...
