  1. FNP student disliking family practice

    AAC.271 replied to MiahMSN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    It's like every RN needs to be an NP now to get another letter after their name. Sometimes being a provider is not your calling. If you enjoyed your job as an RN, stick with it. Don't follow what is...

  2. Any nurse practitioners wish they had be physical therapists?

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

    I was told nurse practitioners pay lower for malpractice insurance and they get sued less. There is a story out there about how doctors never say they are sorry when they mess up and that leads to...

  3. What direction in APRN

    AAC.271 replied to somethingwitty's topic in Advanced Practice

    Why not just stay as an ER nurse if you enjoy it? It's like everyone feels like they need to be an np now lol. On on a more serious note, if you want procedures, getting an fnp online truthfully has...

  5. CRNA DNP with an MBA?

    AAC.271 replied to Bluebolt's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

  6. Disrespectful medical assistants

    AAC.271 replied to BlueLightRN's topic in Ambulatory Care, Clinic

    It's a shame, but with degree shifts going on everywhere, I think MA's have the potentially of really taking a big bite out of the pie of what Nurses use to do. Nurses have responded by moving up the...

  7. Will there be too many NPs?

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

    I frankly dn't see any problem. Look it is very difficult to kill a patient. You have to be extremely reckless to actually kill someone. Care and compassion are the most important factors in being a...

    AAC.271 posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Hi everyone, I'm still a student so i'm a bit clueless about the cost of malpractice, but what is the cost of malpractice insurance in independent practice states? is it more than in states where we...

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

    That is true that I may not have the most experience, but nonetheless, I find it hard to believe that Online for profit NP training is so tremendously horrible compared to online non profit NP...

  11. Allina Health not hiring online NP grads

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

    I am an sNP and I go to a program that is predominantly online, but we did have to go to the school in person a few times. It is a nonprofit university. However, I have several friends who are taking...

  12. Allina Health not hiring online NP grads

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

    People need to get rid of this notion that all for profit online schools are bad. Certainly on a whole, they aren't the best, but that does not mean they pump out incompetent graduates. So long as you...

  13. Malpractice Insurance Independent Practice

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

    Even for states where NP's and MD's practice independently and in primary care? The malpractice rates for MD family doctors are ~7x more than NP's FNP? We nurse practitioners must be doing something...

  14. Allina Health not hiring online NP grads

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

  15. Allina Health not hiring online NP grads

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

    There are countless online programs to get your. ASN.BSN degree that have been around for over a decade, yet all RN's are RN's. The quality hasn't degraded. The same goes with online NP programs....

  16. Allina Health not hiring online NP grads

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

    I have brought this up before, but even though online NP programs have bloomed over the years, the results consistently show parity with physicians and standards have NOT declined. This argument that...

  17. Are NPs allowed to strike?

    AAC.271 posted a topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Are we allowed to go on strike to protest for equal pay, independence, poor working conditions? Do we fall under the category of nurses or do we fall in the domain of physicians and cannot

  18. Accelerated Masters with no Nursing background

    AAC.271 replied to Katie_dogluvr's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    i appreciate your sentiments but medicine is evidenced based and the evidence suggests that nps provide not only equal care but superior outcomes. Please do a pubmed search and you will see how I am...

    AAC.271 replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    I'm sorry for your loss but times indeed changed and nurses are no longer the folks who does everyone's b work. We are highly trained, well educated advanced professionals many of whom in hospital...

  20. Accelerated Masters with no Nursing background

    AAC.271 replied to Katie_dogluvr's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm confident there is data out there saying nursing experience has zero factor in becoming a better provider. you are not training to become a nurse, you are training to become a doctor

  21. Accelerated Masters with no Nursing background

    AAC.271 replied to Katie_dogluvr's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  23. Accelerated Masters with no Nursing background

    AAC.271 replied to Katie_dogluvr's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    AAC.271 replied to 2live42day's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

  25. NP vs MD Should be Directed Elsewhere

    AAC.271 posted a topic in General Nursing

    There is all this fighting between CRNA/NPs/PA's/MD's/Do's. But really there needs to be a concerted effort by all of us to recognize the growing fields that are not reliant on evidenced based...
