  1. The Decline of Physicians: Do we really need them anymore in Primary Care?

    Aromatic replied to AAC.271's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    lol we all know its just a money bang. schools and BON get rich and people get to wear their white coats proudly. Everybody wins except the students at the tail end of the NP gold rush, currently...

  2. Experienced NPs

    Aromatic replied to Jules A's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Usually carrib medical students dont do well enough on the MCAT to get into an american medical school. 0.6 correlation between MCAT score and USMLE score. If you go to an american medical school and...

  3. Who says nurses can't be scholars?

    Aromatic replied to Neuro Guy NP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am a nurse adn I dont think most nursing programs require biochem or a true physiology course. Combined A and P is not real physiology. How do they have no bearing if they are the basis of all the...

  4. The Decline of Physicians: Do we really need them anymore in Primary Care?

    Aromatic replied to AAC.271's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I wouldnt mind leaving the primary care to nurse practitioners. at least the HTN, basic thyroid issues, diabetes, sinus congestion, bronchitis and all the commonalities really dont take much thought...

  5. DNP Fluff

    Aromatic replied to Malenurse1235954's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    lol we get one semester of full pharm but its integrated into everything else. not to mention we continually learn stuff in clinicals and

  6. Who says nurses can't be scholars?

    Aromatic replied to Neuro Guy NP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    THey can be but for science related scholarly things nursing education itself without some personal on-our-own-time study, isnt enough. People have to at least understand some biochem and physiology...

  7. Whatever happened to going to school to be a nurse?

    Aromatic replied to indish's topic in General Nursing

    If everybody wants an advanced practice role at least salaries for bedside RNs will probably go up. I didnt particularly enjoy being a nurse but it wasnt bad. Enjoyed the patient interaction but...

  8. DNP Fluff

    Aromatic replied to Malenurse1235954's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    ah sorry i ment to say that can work in specialties. That is cool that he is working in that type of role, which is still probably pretty rare. Just do to the fact that the PA profession is under...

  9. Preparing for FNP School

    Aromatic replied to anchorRN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    robbins is a big one lol. we use it for a reference book in med school but you can get away with a lot less than robbins. Usually I am not a fan of taking shortcuts but for primary care there are a...

  10. DNP Fluff

    Aromatic replied to Malenurse1235954's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    i agree with what rock may says minus the pa becoming what DO is. DOs are equivalent to MDs and can pursue pretty much any specialty via residency. Pas cant work with specialists but arent going to be...

  11. Experienced NPs

    Aromatic replied to Jules A's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Gotta watch some of those FMG docs too, there seems to be a higher percentage of them giving off silly medication regimens even though some from every educational aspect are guilty. Not sure why...

  12. Experienced NPs

    Aromatic replied to Jules A's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Yeah i have heard that their standards are not as high as previous but At least they still require the GRE ha

  13. Experienced NPs

    Aromatic replied to Jules A's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    We should come up with a curriculum thats better than the current standard (if there even is one) and submit to the board or nursing. They would probably laugh and hit delete though. The one you...

  14. Experienced NPs

    Aromatic replied to Jules A's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    700 clinical hours just isnt enough. 2k would be reasonable at minimum. People might frown at the idea but it would help nurse practitioners out in many ways 1. employers would not shy away from new...

  15. Why Can Pre-Med Students Know Their Choice But Nursing Students "Can't"?

    Aromatic replied to Shookclays's topic in General Nursing

    this makes no sense. nobody knows exactly what specialty they can get into in medicine until you actually MATCH. I mean I could say i want to do dermatology in med school but that doesnt mean Ill get...

  16. Advance Practice Preceptorships - Should students find their own preceptors?

    Aromatic replied to husky171's topic in Advanced Practice

    Lol If i ever precept ill have them take a short written test first day before all the paperwork goes through that goes over basic need to know stuff and if they bomb it they are out. And also a full...

  17. What/why do they say our classes are fluff?

    Aromatic replied to AAC.271's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    Your gonna run out of steak

  18. Experienced NPs

    Aromatic replied to Jules A's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    All it would take to fix it would be a little stricter admissions criteria, a one semester biochem/cellbio class, a little more patho/anatomy, a bit harder board exam and a one year residency with...

  19. My professor told us NPs have no future...

    Aromatic replied to anilechim's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    You overdosed on the kool-aid. usually statements that throw the blame completely on one political party are not to be taken seriously. Even democratic states have education budget cuts, actually in...

  20. Which Level? Extending What?

    Aromatic replied to B52Bomber's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I know right. When out of motivation I usually listen to the FMJ gunnery Sargent Hartman monologue on youtube. Our basic science coordinator is a lot like him, so if you bomb tests you get verbally...

  21. Experienced NPs

    Aromatic replied to Jules A's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    yeah academia isnt big bucks at most places. i got offered a 65k a year cush job at my old school for an np lab coordinator thing. the docs make about 150k at their cush job teaching stuff. usually...

  22. Which Level? Extending What?

    Aromatic replied to B52Bomber's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

  24. America, party of 2

    Aromatic replied to Cwoods's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    ''lol what words? its my house I can do what I want and once my kids if i ever have any are 18 they can too. I don't care what you all do. it doesn't offend or bother me. Your emotions are writing...

  25. America, party of 2

    Aromatic replied to Cwoods's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Considering that many of the democratic leaders are fond and open of Islam, your probably safer with Trumps group. Ever read much of the Koran? I have. I know where your fear should lie, and its not...
