Thank you so much for this video. As an AGACNP student, the hospitalist role appeals to me. The insights shared in this video are useful. Networking is everything. I am learning to do this with providers and recruiters I encounter at work. I also worry about oversaturation . There is a lot of movement. In time, people will retire, move into other areas , go back to the bedside or leave healthcare altogether. Even though it’s rough at the bedside, I still like it and value time I’ve spent there. Looking forward to more videos!
Excellent video. Concise and to the point. Lots of speakers say extra stuff that no one want to hear but this one made me stay until the end as every sentence uttered is meaningful. Thank you! Agacnp student here graduating at the end of this year
I had to come back and watch this video! I just graduated and I took your interview course and got a offer the very next day for a hospitalist job! Critical care is my goal , but it’s good to know it’s a seamless transition. I have a video request 😂 tips for running a code as a APP. Makes me nervous to think it’s all on me , thanks for all your great tips and advice , I def wish I had this information before going to NP school
Yay for landing the job!!!!! So exciting. It really is a great way to grow a solid foundation to do it via this pathway. Thanks for sharing your great news! Could I use your second sentence on my website as a testimonial? And if so email me a picture of you what that included as well. Juskowiakbriana@gmail.com. Also - that’s a fabulous idea for a video. I haven’t done as many clinical ones recently but I will add this to the agenda.
Good afternoon Bree My name is Denise Carroll and I am a some-what new grad. I graduated May 2020 FNP. I took boards board January 2021 and was unsuccessful!:( I continued to work as a tele Rn to pay for boards again. I took boards again Jan 12, 2022 and passed with a 749. I interviewed for a Hospitalist job x 4 months ago and I never heard anything back from them. So I get a call from a nurse practitioner who's a Intensivist at the same hospital. He asked me was I still interested in the intensivist position that I applied for 10 months ago. I was super excited so I said yes. I have a interview this weds Dec 14th at 2:30pm, like I said I have tele experience and a little of ICU. Meaning when the ICU's are short a nurse they pull the tele nurses to help absorb the nurse pt ratio. Bree if I where to get the job this would be my first FNP job ever, I have put in about 33 applications with the time I"ve graduated and they all were no!:( I love your energy and knowledge and your helpful hits during the interview progress. Any extra advice before weds? I know that I can master's the job if offered. Denise Carroll FNP, BC
Congrats Denise!! I’m sure you are very excited, that’s a long journey. Def start studying interview skills. I have a digital course which you could consume, do the assigned work for in a few days time and come out ready to get a job offer. It really is easy once you figure out how to prepare and put in the time to practice. briana-juskowiak-s-school.teachable.com/p/turn-interviews-into-offers-workshop?preview=logged_out
So...I'm having a hard time finding any clear vernacular concerning FNPs working in a hospitalist position in a full practice authority state. Even looking on the BON it's not very clear. I have a lot of CVICU and ICU experience. Now I'm in a rural area that needs an APP hospitalist. I think I would be perfect for the position but I cannot find any clear indication that it will be within my scope of practice (esp. with a fellowship program in place). Any advice?
This is an endemic problem. Even in my state the BON wording is incredibly grey. I would call your state BON. Be aware though you’ll be subject to the “opinion” of the interpretation of whoever is there that day. Document, take names. I would look to your state APRN organizations, there will be some - do a google search, lots of FB forums out there and get the word on the street.
thanks for the video! It was very informative. I am currently a first semester FNP student. Both of you practice in the state of Georgia correct? Does Georgia hire FNPs as hospitalist or only ACNP?
@@BreeJuskowiak thanks for the follow up and response 👍 😀 keep up the great content. You earned a follow from me! I do plan on getting my DNP with acute care focus after I'm done with FNP
@@urdying I believe there is a shift and I don’t know why the current legislation is but there are rumblings of DNP being a requirement. But, I’ve heard those rumors even when I went to school. I see two sides of the DNP topic: 1. Pros: you will have a terminal degree. You can teach and go into research. Some schools/speaking endorsements will pay more if you are DNP. 2. Cons: more time more money more frustrations for a focus that not everyone enjoys. I don’t know of many clinical jobs that pay more for having DNP. For me I chose not to pursue DNP.
Thank you for the information. There are no NP hospitalists where I work therefore you introduced me to a new opportunity upon graduation... Regarding the video you mentioned about being a good NP student...I am starting NP school in 2 months..a little nervous..any guidance regarding selection of clinical sites? Again thank you
Hi Mar. Yes, there is so much we can do as NP's! Sites depend on if your school assists, do you have access to a teaching institution? If so, go there. I like to do as many varied rotations as possible to get more exposure to what different NP's do. You may find you like something that you didn't anticipate. Also, the rotations augment each other so if you know what you want to do, try to find specialties that support your ultimate goal. If you know you want critical care - don't do all cc. Try some time with pulmonary and nephrology, maybe ID.
Thanks for these interviews! It seriously helps guide my path as a new grad in terms of what first job/unit may benefit my career if I decide to go the NP route. Have you ever known anyone who went from NICU to adult ICU, or somewhere like ortho/ inpatient rehab to ICU as an RN? It seems that seeking out a position on a cardiac or neuro floor is the only stepping stone to ICU that I’ve heard of. Thanks again for your insight!
Hi Katie, thanks for the feedback. NICU as in neonatal? No I don't. I do know a few who have done the opposite as nurses. As an NP you can't make this transition without an additional degree. You are either adult or neonatal degree - different education and board certification. For the ortho/rehab to ICU yes you could do that under ACNP. Add yes, I know people who have switched sub-specialties and been very fulfilled. Like anything else there is a definite learning curve. If you are inquiring about how to get to ICU as a provider, there are many folks who are hired directly into it. I'm one. I did have nursing experience in ICU first. It is definitely possible, and in my area, the norm. Good luck!
So inspiring, thank you both ❤

Awe thank you! Mitzi is an excellent communicator. Glad it was helpful for you. Congrats on getting to see the light at the end of the tunnel!
So good to see u here Bree :)
Hey Nino, hope you are well!
Mitzi is amazing all the way around, but of course, I may be a little biased.
