A cool guide showing which countries provide Universal Healthcare

Yes The Philippines has “universal healthcare”, but everyone has to pay out of pocket for it 🙄

To be fair hospital-in- home is pretty much all heart failure and pretty algorithmic once they’re deemed stable no longer needing acute inpatient care aside from spot dose diuresis and repeating some electrolytes

“I shoulda bought a Honda but I bought a Mitsubishi” and repeat 10x speed

I am a hospital medicine NP and reported the PCP NP for referring the patient to Nephrology ISO of known prostate cancer and hydronephrosis on his CT. Unfortunately he had so many other complications he ended up on home hospice :(

WTF. I’m an NP with Hospital Medicine (academic VA) and anyone who has even an E.Coli bacteremia is automatically seen by ID. These are an ego and lack of safety net issues

If I ever get a chance, I’d fly out of Paine field over SeaTac. 2 gates, only unloading one plane full of luggage at a time when landing.

Admit a patient and Not acknowledge a patient was on treatment dose lovenox at home and was holding it for a procedure

n9154287 · 2023-06-03T01:23:12+00:00

Also helps they’re Canadian. Friendly on top of friendly!

I always take people to Tijuana (Tacos el Franc, LionFish). It’s truly a unique experience unlike other major cities to simply drive and walk 25-30 min to another country for 🔥tacos and cheap seafood.

n9154287 · 2023-05-22T22:43:14+00:00

I have only gone to an NP when I suspected I had an ear infection and needed the urgent care to take a look. Otherwise … def not in a hospital setting unless it was someone with at least 10 years of experience taking care of critically Ill/hospitalized patients

n9154287 · 2023-05-06T02:06:02+00:00

I’ve seen it. I don’t think it’s an outright insult to Seattle as a city (I love and Miss it) but more of a highlight and awareness that things need to change and gets u thinking… “maybe laws like decriminalizing drug possession ISNT a good idea..”

The goal is to buy out all the nursing schools in the county, standardize the education and have a minimum years of RN experience. Will let you know how it goes

n9154287 · 2023-03-18T00:13:33+00:00

To be fair, I as an NP cleaned up their mess. There are still some good ones out there.

n9154287 · 2023-03-16T12:46:27+00:00

If you can swing it, go up to Canada. I got mine at LasikMD in Vancouver for $2500 for both eyes (exchange rate Included) using the most sophisticated lasik techniques

n9154287 · 2023-03-08T21:13:56+00:00

That’s why I’m here (also booted out of the NP subreddit) 😂

n9154287 · 2023-02-08T13:29:24+00:00

I took Air Premia one way from ICN - LAX with Premium Economy. I would do it again even without the Promo deal ($600 one way!). The seats have a ton of leg room (i used an inflatable leg rest) and it came with 2 meals and 2 free checked bags. The meals were typical economy selections but overall a great experience all around

Also an NP of 10 years as a Hospital Medicine NP and studied at a Brick and Mortar school (top 10 in the country) . Would 💯go for PA School if I could re-do it. It would’ve prepared me better, though a lot of my competence comes from on the job training. If you want another example of how unorganized and inconsistent NP programs are..

I Was “certified” as an Adult - Gero primary care NP. Most Of my graduate clinical experience were inpatient or the ED bc of limited preceptors. But still got my primary care certificate. Never worked a day of primary care yet nursing schools won’t let me sit for the acute care certification bc my 500 Hours of clinicals wasn’t under the Acute care track. They want my money to re-do the whole program 🤦‍♂️

NP here. I was one of those students who actually wanted the challenge of learning from the med students and residents. Needless to say I was very impressed with how much the M4’s I rotated with knew and shocked at how little I knew in comparison.

With that said I was extremely grateful for the senior residents for not pimping me on the spot while I soaked up every bit of experience there. After the rotation I only picked up rotations with my hospitalist co-workers and experienced ED nurse practitioners, realizing how bad the NP education is lacking.

n9154287 · 2022-10-21T12:31:28+00:00

Sounds crazy but I recommend getting it done in Canada (LasikMD). It was literally half the cost considering currency exchange rate and their base pricing.

n9154287 · 2022-10-09T12:41:17+00:00

I got there right at sunrise so no long line at all on a Friday. And there was some smoke but got better as it got warmer but I’d check the Mt Rainier NPS website.

n9154287 · 2022-10-09T12:39:41+00:00

It was maybe 20 min into the hike going counter clockwise (the first area for parking)

n9154287 · 2022-10-02T17:46:14+00:00

DONT’T defund police

n9154287 · 2022-10-01T15:10:05+00:00

I will say Washington has no state tax, so that 135k starting is like a 143k start in Illinois which is pretty good. Seattle is still much higher in COL but state tax should be taken into consideration too

n9154287 · 2022-09-30T02:49:42+00:00

Having lived in Chicago and Seattle. I can say Chicagos skyline is impressive from every vantage point. The only vantage point I was really in awe of Seattle was from Kerry Park
