    mrl3fnp replied to Ajwalls24's topic in Texas Nursing

  2. Too Many Nurse Practitioners?

    mrl3fnp replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    mrl3fnp replied to adboehnen's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Some states don't require APRN national certifications........In those states, RNs are legally able to practice as a provider. So we need to be careful when we start saying "can't" or "required." I...

    mrl3fnp replied to Breycn's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  17. Flu Shot or Mask?

    mrl3fnp replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    To argue for or against the efficacy of the flu shot is futile when the other person doesn't recognize or understand statistical power, bias, and financial corruption. But, I regress because my...

  18. Flu Shot or Mask?
