2. Stress level: RN vs. NP

   NEMurse95 replied to NEMurse95's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

   From an outsider looking in, it seems to me like this could have a bit to do with having a crumby boss. If (s)he's constantly pushing you to see more patients, he clearly doesn't have quality of care...

   This seems too good to be true. The tuition is $199 per credit hour. Has anyone done the online RN to BSN program through them? They're accredited by the

7. Dislike RN role-- love NP role?

   NEMurse95 replied to NEMurse95's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

   Nice! Out of curiosity, why did you decide on the DNP route instead of an FNP-MSN? What experience did you have as an RN in those two years working towards your

   Hello. I'm currently trying to sort out some preliminary plans in my head for what direction I want to take in my schooling. In my head, my heart is set on family practice. I like the idea of...

   NEMurse95 replied to NEMurse95's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

   Thanks for the thorough reply. I didn't mean to say anything negative whatsoever about the RN role other than that I think I could better utilize my skills and interests in an NP role. Since starting...

10. Dislike RN role-- love NP role?

    NEMurse95 replied to NEMurse95's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Interesting. I've noticed a lot of my classmates have CRNA aspirations. I've floated the idea in my head, but I don't think I would truly enjoy it. The idea of primary care is much more enticing to...

    NEMurse95 replied to NEMurse95's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Fair enough. I will probably at least start in Med-Surg to gain some experience and deepen my familiarity with the RN role. My thought for going for FNP is it's versatile. I want to work in a primary...

    NEMurse95 posted a topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Hello all. I'm currently in my last semester as an RN student. I went into nursing with the idea that I want to be an NP in a primary care office or maybe urgent care. I LOVE learning about diseases...

15. Fluid in lungs--does it HAVE to start in bases?

    NEMurse95 posted a topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I just thought of something as I was reading my text. It talks about how a manifestation of pulmonary edema is "auscultation of crackles in the lung bases." This made me wonder...and it may be a dumb...
