  5. Best RN experience for new grad FNP?

    aok7 replied to ladybug95's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I am studying for my board exams and am working to clear my mind of experience and focus on evidence-based practice. The RN role is not the NP role, and that's my best advice. You'll learn in school...

  10. Can't decide between George Washington University and University of Cincinnati FNP program

    aok7 replied to anurse2love's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    UC does provide help, but like most schools, is not going to do the work of finding preceptors, per se. For example, I got a list of over 50 MDs and NPs who served as preceptors for former students...

    aok7 replied to anurse2love's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner
