1. Right to Refuse

   zayrhia replied to 311ltc's topic in Geriatric

   That's crazy. If I'm understanding your comment correctly she was only trying to protect the patient and she didn't put it in faucet water, she put it in a toilet bowl. What do you think of this CNN story of the patient refusing to go to the hospit...

2. How not to suck!

   zayrhia replied to NP2bman's topic in NP

   What's the minimum amount of clinical hours that you (experienced NPs) consider acceptable upon graduation?

3. PMHNP work/ life balance

   zayrhia replied to julesjameson3333's topic in Advanced

   Bumping for other responses.

6. Psych NP

   zayrhia replied to Robinson1957's topic in NP

   Disclaimer: I'm not a Psych NP. Yikes, I'm hoping this is a case study for homework in your psych NP program rather than a live patient. If you are indeed an LIP, please take Aromatic NP's advice and look up the information on one of the evidence b...

7. Have you planned what your 'peri-Retirement' job will be?

   zayrhia replied to zayrhia's topic in Retired

   Yes, that's my fear too (of running out of money). God willing, my mortgage will be paid by then. I just want to the flexibility of doing a lot or hardly nothing at all.

8. Have you planned what your 'peri-Retirement' job will be?

   zayrhia posted a topic in Retired

   Currently, I work for the federal government as a QI nurse. It's great, fulfilling, yada, yada. Having said that, I'm so tired of the Monday through Friday 9-5 grind. I'm in my early forties and will retire from the Feds promptly at 57. At that poi...

9. Pmhnp program

   zayrhia replied to saramay686's topic in Psychiatric

   I had no idea about this program. This may be a contender.

10. Becoming a psych NP... no psych experience

    zayrhia replied to Girlygirl69's topic in Psychiatric

    Thanks PsychGuy for this perspective. Not too long ago, it used to be that RNs had to do med-surg before entering a specialty and now it's almost the norm to enter into a specialty as a new grad. And unless a study comes out indicating otherwise, ...

11. Pros and cons of psych nursing?

    zayrhia replied to AngelusLapsus's topic in Psychiatric

    Bless you. I don't think I have it in me to care for folks like that.

12. Shame on you ANCC : Psych CNS: Don't precept Psych NP's

    zayrhia replied to dmarie82's topic in CNS

    It's unfortunate. I guess the way to go would be to do a NP post-MSN certificate. Hopefully, they could even waive or transfer some of the credits from the CNS program.

13. Is your job ever dangerous?

    zayrhia replied to StayOrthostatic's topic in Forensic

    If you provided the exam in the ER -assuming you mean the bay rooms-wouldn't that be an issue with privacy, cross-contamination and possibly chain of custody?

14. Nurse Investigators/Nurse Coroners

    zayrhia replied to trenadamm's topic in Forensic

    Yes, I'm a little frustrated with the lack on non-SANE nurses in my area. I would like to get into investigating elder abuse, but it appears no one is really doing it.

15. NP and beyond...

    zayrhia replied to LaxNP's topic in Advanced

    Maybe start a health related NGO or go into administration in a FQHC?
