Talk to me FNP students!!!

[DeeRN,BSN]

Hello!! Wanted to know what different locations FNP students have done their clinical rotations. I am a FNP student with Drexel University and I am particularly interested in Urgent Care. However, I know we have to do an OBGYN rotation, but where else would be beneficial to go (besides a family practice) to learn the most and have it be exciting! Where have you all gone? What exciting things have you done, seen??

My 4 favorite clinical placements included an assisted living facility (I learned SO MUCH about geriatric medicine), a walk-in clinic at a large university (it was really more like an ER - we saw fractures, did X-rays and blood work, did sutures, did pregnancy tests, treated not only the undergrads, but also the grad students, faculty, and their families), an OBGYN placement in a low-income area (lots of great screening and patient-education opportunities), and a cardiac placement at a large cardiac practice that did stress tests and nuclear imaging on site. I had several more placements, but these were my faves and I learned SO much.
