Pediatric Oncology Nursing Programs

Jill@melnic.com (President Melnic Consulting Group) — Fri, 18 Dec 2009 13:12:00 +0000

Dear Jill,
I have just stumbled upon the pediatric nurse practitioner blog and I am extremely excited to see that a thing such as this exists. My name is LT and I am currently an RN with a BSN working at a Hospital in New Orleans, LA in Oncology. My dream is to go back to school and becaome a pediatric nurse practitioner, obtaining my DNP. I have had an extremely difficult time lately searching for jobs. I accepted the job in oncology when I graduated nursing school in December of 2008 because I want to work in pediatric oncology ultimately and I was unable to find a pediatric job at the time. I hope to apply to DNP school as soon as possible but I know that experience in pediatrics is very crucial to acceptance. Are there any specific hospitals you would recommend looking into as far as jobs? Are there any pediatric DNP programs that you would recommend?Any advice you may give have will be very appreciated. Thank you for your help, I look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks,
LT

Hi, great to hear from you. I am not sure about the reputations of DNP schools. If you find some you’re interested in, let me know and I will see if I know someone there. As a RN or as a NP, the jobs are out there, but they may not be where you are. I just did a search for pediatric RN oncology and I saw a number of jobs nationwide but that was not true New Orleans when you were looking. The same is true of a pediatric nurse practitioner. Right now I have PNP Onc jobs at Lucile Packard Children's Hospital, Children’s National Medical Center in DC and Mercy Children’s Hospital in Kansas City. Most of the PNP Hem Onc jobs you will find are in cities because most of the children’s hospitals are in cities. That means that you may need to have some flexibility in where you live and work when you graduate.

I think that there is an incredible opportunity as a PNP. I think that it provides a lot of options for a wonderful career. If you want to work in Hem Onc, most likely you would work at one of the children’s hospitals. There are at least 250 children’s hospitals nationwide and growing. So there is a lot of potential opportunity for RN and PNP Hem Onc jobs. Children's hospitals in general continuously strive to create the best care, outcomes and enviroment for patients. This generally creates a positive and satisfying work environment.

At this point there is no guarantee that if you get your DNP without your PNP that you would be qualified to get a PNP job. You can either get your Primary Care PNP which allows you to work in primary care and specialty care but not necessarily inpatient acute care. You can also get the Acute Care PNP and work all those areas but may need a little experience before doing primary care. One other option is to get the Primary Care PNP and then get the Acute Care Certification which you can do in a distance program. The most important thing is to get work experience as a RN in the unit you think you want to work in either before or while you are in school even if it means it takes you a little longer. That is the key to getting a job in specialty care.

I would recommend finding a PNP program you are intersted and then working as a RN in Peds Hem Onc to best prepare yourself for a job as a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner in Hematology Oncology.

I hope this helps.

Warm Regards,
Jill Gilliland

More Applicants than Space for Nursing Schools

More Applicants than Space for Nursing Schools

Enrollment in entry-level baccalaureate nursing programs increased for the ninth straight year in 2009, climbing 3.5 percent, the American Association of Colleges of Nursing reported yesterday. At least 39,423 qualified applications were turned away due to faculty and resource constraints, continuing the trend in recent years. Based on preliminary data from the association’s annual nursing school survey, enrollment in master’s programs rose 9.6 percent and doctoral programs 20.5 percent. AONE Board president Donna Herrin-Griffith, MSN, RN, NEA-BC, CENP, FACHE, said, "As health care reform efforts continue and pressures to expand primary, preventative and transitional care increase, it is critical that talented individuals who want to pursue nursing in both entry and advanced practice levels have the opportunity to access a quality education.”

UNMC Receives $1.18 Million Grant to Increase Number of Psychiatric Nurse Practitioners Statewide
Targeted News Service (10/26/09)

The U.S. Department of Health & Human Services has awarded a three-year, $1.18 million grant to the University of Nebraska Medical Center College of Nursing that is expected to nearly double the number of psychiatric nurse practitioners in Nebraska. UNMC College of Nursing will use the grant to increase access to its family psychiatric nurse practitioner master's degree and family psychiatric nurse practitioner "Sprint Track" post master's certificate programs via Internet-based learning and videoconferencing systems. "This advanced technology will make students feel like they are sitting in the same room as the faculty member and fellow students," says Michael Rice, professor of psychiatric nursing, UNMC College of Nursing and project director of the grant. "The technology also will enable faculty to supervise students in clinical settings and communicate with the students' preceptors who supervise and monitor the students in clinical settings." Although Nebraska has 46 psychiatric nurse practitioners, 89 of its 93 counties have mental health workforce shortages. The grant should increase the number of psychiatric nurse practitioners available to diagnose and treat mental illnesses by 43.

American Academy of Pediatrics- AAP Convention

We just came back from Washington, DC where we attended the 2009 American Academy of Pediatrics national conference, "Pediatric Heroes: Champions for Children." It was an awesome experience. We met some terrific pediatricians who shared with us the benefits having Pediatric Nurse Practitioners, including an increase in access to health care and increased profitability for their practices. We will be working with many of them going forward to help them fill open positions that they currently have. We also learned that Pediatric Nurse Practitioners are in high demand, and there are a number of fast track and emergency center PNP positions available at this time. All in all, it was great, and we are so glad we were able to participate in this year's Conference.

Medical Mission Trip to Mexico
February 14-28, 2010

Join the International Medical Assistance organization volunteers as we travel to Valladolid, Yucatan, Mexico next February to provide medical, surgical and dental care to the people of Valladolid.

IMA is an interdenominational medical mission group that provides medical care to people all over Mexico. This non-profit group consists of volunteers who take one or two weeks of vacation time to go, serve and change lives…including their own.

Short-term trips are the core of our ministry and provide many opportunities to reach people who have no access to medical care. We provide one or two week opportunities for volunteers to provide exceptional compassionate care to those who desperately need it.

Volunteers are surgeons, internists, anesthesiologists and those from other medical backgrounds. They work with adults and children as physicians, technical assistants, pharmacists and nurses in addition to general helpers who all work collaboratively to serve the Mayan and Mexican people. Medical, surgical and dental supplies are brought to each project. We set up modest and efficient surgical suites, a pharmacy and consultation rooms to provide loving care to people who may have waited for years for help.

If you would like to be part of our medical team on this mission to Valladolid or future trips to Mexico, please contact me for more information on opportunities to serve through IMA.

Critical Care Beds Demand Pediatric Nursing

Jill@melnic.com (President Melnic Consulting Group) — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 13:31:00 +0000

Growing Demands for Critical Care Beds and Recommendations for more Pediatric Nurse Practitioners

In the Dallas area, children’s hospitals frequently transport pediatric patients to open critical care beds due to full capacity in the pediatric ICUs.

For that reason, “we need more ICU beds,” John O’Neill, CEO of Medical City Children’s Hospital, said. “That’s why Children’s (Medical Center in Dallas) is expanding downtown — and we’re expanding here as well to help meet that need.”

According to the “Dallas Business Journal,” “the pediatric population nationwide is expected to grow by 1% by 2012.” In North Texas, “It is growing at six times the national average, increasing the demand for pediatric services,” O’Neill said. In Plano, the pediatric population is expected to grow by more than 20% in the next three years. The demand for pediatric critical care services seems to exceed the growth of the population.” This could be due to the increase in pediatric surgical cases resulting from an increase in pediatric surgical specialists by nearly 24% in the last decade. more...

What Do Clinical Nurse Specialist Do?

Jill@melnic.com (President Melnic Consulting Group) — Fri, 11 Sep 2009 13:46:00 +0000

What Does a Clinical Nurse Specialist Do?

The Clinical Nurse Specialist is an expert clinician and critical component in the delivery of high quality health care in the hospital setting.

The CNS is a Master’s prepared nurse who has transitioned or is in the process of transitioning from the role of RN. As part of the leadership team, the CNS with extensive RN experience will work alongside nurses at the bedside to teach and identify process concerns and educational needs, as well as maintain their own skills.

In addition to their role of educator, the CNS is responsible for leadership development, research, consulting for other services and institutions, and, of course, clinical practice. They practice in many specialty areas including pediatrics, acute/critical care, adult health, geriatrics, oncology, acute/surgical care and community health to name a few. Their goal is to enhance the delivery of health care within their unit, and their success is defined by the success of their nurses as well as patient outcomes.

The role of the CNS is not without its challenges. They need to effectively balance the need for influence with the nurses to be able to train them successfully in the specific procedures of the unit while meeting the goals of management and leadership. The ideal situation occurs when the CNS has nurse educators in the unit that do orientation, onboarding and credentialing education. This gives the CNS the opportunity to establish themselves as the trainer/educator that delivers excellent quality training to nurses at the bedside.

In some instances, the CNS does not have a direct leadership relationship over the nursing staff, requiring them to be creative in their leadership and educator role. All nurses must have access to the same education and training opportunities, which means the schedule of the CNS has to be flexible to meet the needs of the night shift nurses.

There are several possible reporting structure reporting relationships between the CNS and management. For example, the CNS may report directly to the Director of the unit, or may have a line relationship with the Director. Other possibilities are reporting to a Director of Advanced Practice Nurses, or the Director of Education within the organization. It is very important that the CNS have a clear understanding of the organization’s reporting structure for their particular position.

There are many ways the organization can assist the CNS to ensure success. The most effective is regular goal-setting, scheduling and planning meetings between management and the CNS. Goals are set, expectations are clarified and performance and progress are measured on a regular basis. In addition, the CNS needs solid management support in the areas of funding, resources and time to successfully institute their programs and meet their goals. In some instances, professional coaching is provided for the CNS to help guide relationships between management and the nursing staff.

The AACN Statement of Support for Clinical Nurse Specialists offers a great definition of the Clinical Nurse Specialist Role:

Within the APRN community, Clinical Nurse Specialists (CNSs) play a unique role in the delivery of high quality nursing care. These clinicians are experts in evidence-based nursing and practice in a range of specialty areas, such as oncology, pediatrics, geriatrics, psychiatric/mental health, adult health, acute/critical care, and community health among others. In addition to direct patient care, CNSs also engage in teaching, mentoring, consulting, research, management and systems improvement. Able to adapt their practice across settings, these clinicians greatly influence outcomes by providing expert consultation to all care providers and by implementing improvements in health care delivery systems.

Direct Entry MSN Programs-BSN to MSN Programs

Jill@melnic.com (President Melnic Consulting Group) — Wed, 09 Sep 2009 18:56:00 +0000

From the AllNurses.com Post

This question was posted in the post. To view the entire post, please click on the link above.

"A big controversy remains concerning entry-level MSN programs: Are graduates adequately prepared for advanced practice nursing? What is the job market for advanced practice nursing graduates from these programs? Are they taken seriously by prospective employers? Many people are of the opinion that advanced practice nursing is just that – advanced practice. Critics assert that registered nurses need at least 2 years’ experience at the bedside before entering into advanced practice."

I place pediatric nurse practitioners at children’s hospitals and clinics nationwide and I work with a lot of direct-entry MSN students. There are a lot of very good reasons why a person would pursue a direct entry degree. The graduates I work with are very well educated and prepared through coursework and clinical experience. The place where a direct entry graduate can find it hard to get a job is when they want to work in a specialty care unit but they do not have any experience in that unit as a RN. You cannot work in a critical care unit if you do not have critical care experience. That is true for a PNP who has 20 years nursing experience in a non-critical care environment or a direct entry candidate who has very little RN experience. That being said, there is a difference between a RN who is recently graduated and certified as a PNP with 4-6 or more years RN experience and one who has graduated with no RN experience. One is considered an experienced PNP by most hospitals and one is not.

I strongly encourage anyone in a direct entry program to work as a RN as soon as they can in a hospital. Additionally, I encourage them to work in a unit that they think they might want to continue to work in as an advanced practice nurse. If the program takes 3 years and a student receives their BSN after 1 year, they will have 2 years of RN experience by the time they graduate. Many times I encourage new graduates from a direct entry program to continue or start a RN position until they get a job. That could be another 2 years but they are getting the experience necessary to be an effective nurse practitioner in a hospital environment. In one of the comments, working as an RN was referred to as doing time. I would look at it as a gift of being able to learn to provide the best care possible for your patients in the specialty area of your choice.

One of the exceptions to this can be in a clinic or ambulatory hospital situation. It is possible for a direct entry graduate to receive a job offer as a Nurse Practitioner in a clinic and some ambulatory hospital settings. The overall preparation does prepare a graduate to work successfully as a Nurse Practitioner but cannot possibly prepare every student in every specialty area of the hospital. That is why working in as a hospital RN, especially in a specialty area, is strongly encouraged to build necessary experience for a new graduate. From, Jill Gilliland, President Melnic Consulting Group.

Do I have to get a DNP?

On the Pediatric Nurse Practitioners Facebook page
Gloria wrote 3 hours ago:
I am in a RN-BSN program, I will be done with it in June. Hopefully in the fall I will start the PNP program at University of Texas @ Arlington. Any advice that anyone has would be helpful.

I also saw on the Academy of Pediatric Nurse Practitioner's website that by 2015 you have to get your Ph.D. to get your PNP, is this true?

Gloria, good for you. You will not regret pursuing your PNP degree. My advice would be to make sure you work as a RN during the process. No matter how part time, it is crucial to build your clinical experience to help you get a job. I also recommend working in a peds unit or units that you think you might want to work in when you graduate. If you know for sure that you want to do primary care pediatrics then you would want to work in an ambulatory unit that includes doing history and physicals. For specialty care, a great unit to get experience in is Med Surg. If you know you want critical care work in the PICU or CICU not the NICU unless you are becoming a NNP. If you know you want Hem Onc then work in that unit, BMT, or Nuero oncology.

In 2015 they are not requiring a PH D but a DNP. According to the National Association of Pediatric Nurse Practitioners," It is important that NPs who will be practicing beyond 2015 be aware of the potential changes in practice regulation. (if you already have your MSN and PNP certificate) Rather than enrolling in a complete program of study for the DNP, NPs may choose options for grandfathering that may be offered."

According to Geraldine Polly Bednash, PhD, RN, FAAN in a presentation to NAPNAP, " A transition period be planned to provide nurses with master’s degrees (MSN), who wish to obtain the practice doctoral degree (DNP), a mechanism to earn a practice doctorate in a relatively streamlined fashion with credit given for previous graduate study and practice experience."

Please see the full document on my web site, click on Pediatric Nurse Practitioners and DNP requirements. It was created by the Nurse Practitioner Roundtable (June, 2008). Nurse Practitioner DNP Education, Certification and Titling: A Unified Statement. Washington, DC: Author The Nurse Practitioner Roundtable is a coalition of nurse practitioner organizations formed to collaborate, unify, and address issues of importance to nurse practitioners. The Nurse Practitioner Roundtable is currently composed of the organizations listed on the statement.

Hiring a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner

Hiring a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner

Here are excerpts regarding costs from a March 2000 article in Medical Economics:

http://medicaleconomics.modernmedicine.com/memag/article/articleDetail.jsp?id=121168

“Yes, they are handy to have around, especially since they can do most of what primary care doctors do at one-third to one-half the salaries.”
“And the physicians who hire them benefit greatly. Patients triaged to NPs and PAs are often happier because their visits are longer and they can get same-day appointments. Without a knot of patients in their waiting rooms, physicians are less harried—and many make money on each patient the NP or PA sees.”
“Primary care PAs in multi-specialty groups gross slightly more than $3 for every $1 in compensation, according to the Medical Group Management Association. Internists, in contrast, gross slightly more than twice their compensation. If an NP or PA produces $30,000 in annual profit—an attainable figure, according to the MGMA—the physician practice partners can divide that money among themselves.” more... see the Primary Care Resources link, Benefits to Hiring a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner.

We have an outstanding opportunity with two leading Pediatric Neurosurgeons and a PNP for an additional Pediatric Nurse Pracitioner at Children's Mercy in Kansas City.
Here is some great information about the Kansas City from a manager at the children's hospital. She said that there are many suburbs of downtown Kansas City where people enjoy living. Some of the areas recommended to live in are Prairie Village, Leawood, and Overland Park. Folks really live all over the metro. In regards to interesting areas of Kansas City the Plaza is always popular and has lots of fountains, restaurants and shopping. It’s at 47th Street which is 20 blocks from the hospital. Brookside is probably one of her favorite area of Kansas City where the shops are independently owned and unique. The homes in the area were built in the 1940-1950’s and are well kept it is definitely a nice, fun area of Kansas City.

The Children’s Hospital of Denver is a beautiful, brand new 350 bed facility with private rooms. It is in the top 10 hospitals and is a Magnet Hospital. The facility is incredibly designed from the Terrazzo tile that directs the families to the teen room and large cafeteria with kid friendly, high quality food. 5280 magazine listed the cafeteria as having the “Best Blueberry Pancakes”. Don’t forget, the large windows provide picturesque views of the mountains. Each floor is balanced with an inpatient and outpatient unit. The family play center would keep any child entertained and the lounges on each floor helps parents collect their thoughts and relax in a space where they can take care of their needs. Everyone finds comfort and entertainment when they view one of the 18 fish tanks.

The critical care unit houses a 60 bed NICU, 26 bed PICU, and 12 bed CICU. There is a highly regarded milk lab and lactation service available to the NICU. Excellence in nursing and care are the mantra of the Children’s Hospital and is seen throughout the facility. Research and education are a focus with close ties to University of Colorado Medical Center whose new facilities are next door.
