Avery H. replied to the topic For all of our colleague students and faculty working to obtain clinical hours in the forum Statement Regarding Nurse Practitioner Students and Direct Care Clinical Hours 4 years, 1 month ago
Hello, thanks for sharing.
I would like to hear from some DNP students who are currently trying to obtain their clinical hour requirements during this time and what their experiences, thoughts, and feelings are compared to those before the pandemic. I would also like to introduce the idea that as APRN students we have to be responsible for our…[Read more]

Avery H. started the topic The Value of the DNP; Job Market Outlook/Compensation in the forum DNP Professional Growth 4 years, 1 month ago
The DNP is primarily a practice degree and many of us work or are planning to work in clinical practice settings, where we might meet an APRN without a doctorate in the same or similar role as us, with the same or very similar salary or compensation. These instances have obviously caused for some discussion and lead some to conclude that it is…[Read more]

Avery H. started the topic The Discouragement Received From Nurse Colleagues When Pursuing DNP in the forum DNP Professional Growth 4 years, 1 month ago
Have you guys ever mentioned to coworkers, classmates, or other healthcare professionals that you are studying to earn your Doctorate in Nursing Practice, and they respond with discouragement or ask you why? Then they follow that up by telling you, you don’t need it, you’re going to take out more loans and be in debt forever, etc. These…[Read more]

Avery H. replied to the topic A Great article about quelling the nursing shortage. Short and sweet in the forum Quelling the Nursing Shortage is like doing away with Jim Crow laws 4 years, 1 month ago
The nursing shortage, that has been echoed throughout our undergraduate education, which continues to echo now throughout our graduate programs and APRN practice, finds itself on centerstage once again but this time it’s hard to ignore it or drown it out due to the fact that we are in the middle of the coronavirus pandemic and the shortage of…[Read more]

Like many ideas near the beginning of the pandemic in the US, this article provides some very good, albeit idealistic, suggestions for how to address nursing shortages specifically. The part that had the most impact on me was the discussion on how barriers to the nursing profession need to be removed immediately; this is because it took a pandemic…[Read more]

Ji B. replied to the topic For all of our colleague students and faculty working to obtain clinical hours in the forum Statement Regarding Nurse Practitioner Students and Direct Care Clinical Hours 4 years, 1 month ago
Does anyone have any updates on how obtaining the necessary clinical hours has been progressing throughout the pandemic? In the information provided in the original post, I found it interesting that even though the required 500 clinical hours have been completed, if an acceptable range of experience was not gained, the educational institution is…[Read more]

Ji B. replied to the topic Wise thoughts that may affect us as DNP colleagues. What do you think? in the forum An Opening for Stronger Family Care 4 years, 1 month ago
We are now further in the depths this pandemic, and we still have as little direction/solutions for the various issues that came along with it, such as childcare assistance, missed work and pay, and healthcare overall. Federal and state governments are still struggling to figure out how to best manage/contain the virus, and have been inconsistent…[Read more]

Hi, Thank you for this topic!
Lack of clinical hours is a hard issue to solve. I am a big proponent for more clinical hours than 500, so not being able to obtain the 500 is challenging. I also feel that simulation only does so much good. I valued clinical time more than simulation when I was achieving my BSN. So I imagine it would be the same for…[Read more]

Hello! Thank you for this post and resources. I really enjoyed the IHI videos on measurement. I am a DNP student and I have book marked all these resources for when I have to do my DNP project. It was helpful for the distinction between outcome, process and balancing measures.
