Any questions drop them down below 👇🏽 I’ll be making more videos on tips for NP students that I never got around to doing. Don’t forget to like and subscribe if you enjoy my content 💕
Girl, I don't blame you! When I worked as a primary care RN, the APRN was taken advantage of completely. Expected to see her own patient panel in addition to the doctor's panel for acute visits, follow ups, hospital follow ups, annual wellness visits, etc. It was ridiculous. I am planning to start FNP school next month and like you, if I don't use my FNP license I won't feel so pressured but I'm glad I have options. I know of an NP with her DNP and is working at a university teaching students and never did a patient care role. The opportunities for nurses and nurse practitioners alike are endless.
Hey Wendy, thanks for your videos and encouragement. Congrats on getting your APRN degree. I’ve noticed a lot of APRN jobs are doing the grunt work, while the doctors take the credit for NPs work and pass the blame onto the NPs. I highly recommend Nurse Fern job board for NP jobs and also pursuing nurse entrepreneurship, consulting in some way as a nurse practitioner. Also, maybe it’s good to take time before practicing in the APRN role. Take care of your own health, see your own physician, get labs drawn, practice self care as a nurse. 💗
I continue to see nurses obtain their NP degree yet stay at the bedside. I have noticed a trend of nurses saying they are happy with their bedside position and they are not ready to work in their role as an NP. I just want to know, why did you start and go through NP school at that time? And did you realize you did not want to start working in your new role before, during, or after completing your program? Thanks for your time and response
Hi Wendy, I totally understand your pressure not using your NP license. I am on the same boat as you. I really enjoy the flexibility of working 3 days as RN. I went to a few interviews for NP position, they didn't work out for me. Well, take your time to find the job that you really like. All the best to you!!!
I'm currently PRN too and I looove my work life balance. I'm not too excited about converting to a 4-5 day work week, but I am excited to get out of the hospital lol
First of all , all I heard is a mess of HR and you keep saying NO , and your not interested . So no Job will hire you and you won’t get your feet wet . Sounds like a dilemma more for you specifically .

Thanks Nicki! Can’t beat the flexibility. Good luck to you!

I would do a residency in the specialty I'd like to work in. Going into a specialty right out of NP school is going to be huge headache...
Residency would be a good idea. To my understanding, you’d have to apply within the year after you graduate NP school.
I'm sooo frustrated with the job market and ring take advantage of!
So sorry!
How much more would you make as an NP vs RN (per diem or staff)?
Why did you spend the time and money on an NP though? Not to be rude but the time and money
what department do you work right now as a RN?
Preadmission testing
What NP school did you attend?
UTA 🙂Did a whole video about it
Be more confident.
