Thank you for this detailed breakdown! My plan is to become a derm/aesthetic NP.
My goal as well💖
I spent almost 3 years travel nursing. I wanted to build up as much money as possible for me to pay for masters and a house. I know derm NP is lower pay but I want my life to be peaceful and routine.
Just wondering, since i waned to be a travel nurse, did you like it? What were the pros and cons to it? Thanks :)
@@meg5870 pro money. That’s it. I would never do this if it weren’t for the money. Con you have a very lonely life. Get the worst patients. Everyone assumes you are a millionaire when you aren’t. You miss your family. You miss out on a lot of things with people you love. Travel nursing is not meant for long term. A lot of the nurses who do it long term are divorced. Right now you are better off as a staff. The pay for traveling is no where near COVID pay. That to me was my once in a lifetime opportunity of making that much money. Unless the world comes to end again it won’t happen.
I didn’t think it was possible for me to go into derm with a woman’s health background as a nurse, but now I’m so glad I found your videos!!
Omg you are my complete spirit animal! I’m currently an L&D nurse (initially wanting to midwife) and now looking to get my DNP to be an aesthetic/derm nurse.
Thank you so much for this video!! I’m a ICU travel nurse and I’m looking into Dermatology NP! Wasn’t sure of the path, I appreciate you!
Thank you for this video. I am a new NP and would love to become a dermatology NP, but did not know how. This video will be my guide to my future career as a Dermatology NP.
Thank you, this is just what I needed to hear today!
Wow. This is an amazing video. Thank you so much for being so informative!
Awesome video! Thank you for sharing! I’m looking to move into this field. Great advice!
This is amazing 🙌🏽. Becoming a dermatology NP is my goal. Thank you!
This is so helpful, thank you!
This was so helpful! I first found you last year when I was considering applying to UNC's ABSN program (I ultimately decided to go to a local community college for my ADN because I couldn't justify a 1.5 hour drive to and from campus for a year). I want to get into dermatology/aesthetics or maybe women's health and I keep worrying about how to get my foot in the door for fields that require experience before they'll hire you.
Thanks for the info! I am currently in the process of becoming an lvn but I really want to become a dermatologist NP. I'll focus on trying to get a job in dermatology when I'm done for a leg up
you are my goals!!! currently in nursing school, my goal is to become a labor and delivery nurse and then become an NP in Derm!!!! Congrats on all your accomplishments!
I’m doing exactly this right now!! Seeing that you started in labor and delivery too makes me feel less alone!
Inspiring!! Also, congrats! I watch your videos during my study breaks. Helps motivate me through lol
Awww! I love that thanks boo 😍
Hi! I am about to be a new grad FNP this upcoming spring, and my dream job is to become a dermatology nurse practitoner. I am coming from a MICU background as an RN. I wanted to say that your video was so encouraging and offered me a sense of confirmation that my plan towards my dreams and aspirations are on the right track! Thank you so much again!
You’re welcome Jasmine ❤️
Soo helpful!!! Thanks so much
You’re welcome! 🤍
very informative thank you
Such an amazing and very informative and very useful and very helpful tips/advice video 👍🏾👏🏾🤗
Thanks mellonee!!
@@NurseAggz Your welcome anytime 🤗
When you applied to different states, did you also apply for a NP license in that state?
This was great. Thank you so much for the valuable insight! Been volunteering at a Derm clinic as an MA for 1.5 years and hoping they hire me when I graduate with my BSN :)
Excuse me , what is MA?
Medical Assistant
Can NP’s open their own Dermatology Clinic?
Thank you so much for this video! So helpful! I want to go to FAU actually for my FNP and then do the post-grad program there! I live in the Florida Keys. I was really nervous though because they only accept 30 students once a year, so I was worried that I just wouldn't get in. I worked for a skincare company doing laser facials and helping people with their skin was the most rewarding experience I have felt as an RN. So if I do NP it would only be to do derm-- so that is why I am so nervous that I wouldn't get into FAU post-grad derm program.
Did you feel that program was very competitive? Did you feel like it was hard to get into? Did you see people having to apply several times or not making it? What do you think set your application apart?
Also, I am planning to try to get an internship before I start NP. I work in Hyperbarics at a hospital right now but unfortunately, the wound care department is separate. So I have some ideas for the internship and maybe you could help me decide which direction would be most beneficial/ look most appealing to future employers.
Option 1: Would be to try to cross-train in wound care either in my own hospital (which is unlikely) or try to cross-train at a bigger hospital doing wound care.
option 2: intern at a dermatology office (perhaps Advanced Dermatology)
option 3: intern at a foot and ankle doctor who does a lot of diabetic foot ulcers
option 4: a plastic surgeon's office? just because a lot of them do laser and help with scarring, ect
Lastly, this may be a dumb question but do Derm NPs deal with non healing wounds and like nec fac and staph, etc? Or do they refer out for those things? Do they do stitches and go into surgery?
I'm sorry for all the questions but I feel like I have no one to ask! Thank you so much for going out here and being a resource for people. It is so beyond helpful. Especially since you actually attended the program that I am interested in. I appreciate any advice that you can give me.
Hi Gina. Thank you so much for watching. I was part of FAUs inaugral cohort so I can't speak to competitiveness. I do know its becoming increasingly popular. i imagine that if you have leads for who can possibly precept you while in the program that will give you a stronger chance of being accepted. I feel like you can go wrong with any of the option you listed! If you have an opportunity to work at a dermatology office that would be a great window to a possible future role as a NP there. We do treat wounds but I personally haven't seen a lot of that on my patient panel. we can do surgeries if trained.
i hope that helps!
@@NurseAggz Yes. Thank you. That is very helpful! When you say leads for preceptor do you mean during Clinicals for FNP? Did you do your clinical hours in Derm during FNP?
Does the post grad Derm FAU program match you with Derm preceptors? I wonder if they have a list online if their preceptors.
How are y’all passing microbiology?? It is kicking my ass right now 😂😂😭
Which graduate program do you recommend that makes you more desirable?❤
💜💜
Is there a way to speak with you privately? Do you offer consults I am interested but I need help in navigating to this path. Love your videos 💕💕💕
Thank you so much for this video! What postmaster program did you attend?
florida atlantic university
@@NurseAggz is that a program where you need to move there or is it mostly online?
@@kellytoledough it’s online with a couple in person skill workshop sessions!
hi! i’m currently in 10th grade living in the philippines and i’m thinking of being a dermatological nurse over there in the us… may i ask what are the chances of overseas filipino workers or foreign workers in general getting a job as a derm nurse over there in the us? and i’d also love to know if it’s a well paying job/specialty? this video was very informative thank u so much and i would appreciate anyone’s feedback.
a lot of companies hire foreign nurses period due to most are willing to take a lesser salary and it's been increasing now so i dont really think it will be hard for u!
@@shantels9972 that’s a relief to know thank u so much! :)
Thank you for all this valuable information❤. I wouid love to get into this field I dont have a nursing degree yet. Do you recommend an ADN or BSN to get into this field and of course make good money.
You’re welcome. BSN ☺️
Can you post a list on the schools that offer dermatology NP degrees? Or do u become an FNP and then do a post masters certificate?
they don't have any dermatology np degrees. exactly-- become a FNP first then you can do a post masters certificate
@@NurseAggz Thank you for that.
@@NurseAggz There are also hospitals that offer fellowships (paid like a resident) for 12-24 months where you learn a lot about dermatology.
@@charlesjovellano1309 what are some of the names of those hospitals?
i have degree of clinical nurse so is it possible to get master of dermatology np pls reply
There is no such thing a masters of Dermatology np. There’s a MAsters in Nursing.
Did you have to live in Florida to enroll in FAU's Derm post masters cert program
Nope! It’s virtual
That’s amazing! I spent 8 years in derm as a medical assistant and now I’m a RN and I have a opportunity to go back into derm which I’m taking . My long term goal is to return to school for my FNP and practice as a Derm NP. Thank you for making these videos!
@@JaideRenee that’s awesome! You’re welcome. Stay tune for more videos
