Hi my name is Tania and I am a Registered Nurse living and studying in Ontario Canada. I am currently going to school full-time to pursue my dream of becoming a Primary Health Nurse Practitioner. The purpose of this channel is to provide some insight as to what it's like to be an NP student in Ontario during a pandemic. I found there was a lack of NP students from Canada on UA-cam so I decided to fill that void. I hope to inspire the next generation of NP students and provide some practical schooling tips along the way! I also have an Instagram and TikTok page for more information. Hope to hear about your stories as well xoxo.

I have been waiting so long to do this video! I am finishing up my last year of the NP program and I can finally calculate the grand total of how much I payed for the NP program. Keep in mind that it may not be a true reflection of the fees because some were dropped due to the pandemic. Also, the dollar amount is in Canadian dollars. The fees are for a fulltime student. Hope this helps you plan...

I'm back answering your most frequently asked questions about the NP program in Ontario (in my kitchen 😅). I've been away for a bit because school has been busy. I'm almost done the program (only 1.5 semesters to go) so I thought I would take the time to make this video. Just a reminder that I'm not an academic advisor. I am speaking from my own personal experience. Everyone's journey is differ...
How to Write a Prescription as a Nurse Practitioner in Ontario 💊
Переглядів 2,1 тис.2 роки тому
Hey guys! I've been doing prescriptions during clinical and in class so I thought I would share the basics of writing a prescription. There are 8 elements needed on all prescriptions that are written by an NP. All of the information is based on the CNO NP Practice Standards. I included 3 rx examples so it makes more sense 😀 ⏲️ TIMECODES 0:44 - CNO prescription requirements 2:48 - What NPs canno...

These are some of the questions that I remember from my own nursing job experiences as a general medicine nurse and how I answered them. I have divided the questions into personal and medical questions - timecodes down below. One question that I forgot to mention is "Where do you see yourself in 5 years". I find this question is to see if you would be a long term employee in the organization. H...

Here is how I was able to successfully pass my head to toe assessment. Passing the head to toe was mandatory before starting AHAD in the first semester. A pass is 70% and up so the pressure was on. I don't talk about a complete head to toe assessment but the general principles of it as an NP student. I also provide some tips that helped me a lot in preparing for this exam. QUESTIONS?

We work closely with 4 endocrinologists. I also work with another diab...

How to I got into the Nurse Practitioner Program in Ontario
Переглядів 12 тис.2 роки тому
This is how I got into the Nurse Practitioner Program in Ontario. This information is for Canadian RN students (I am not sure what the application requirements are for international students). Keep in mind that not every application is the same and not every university is the same. Every school is looking for something different. Everyone's experience as a nurse is valuable and one type of nurs...

Chest pain over difficulty breathing???
Hi am looking to start np as well here in Ottawa. Do you know when your notes will be available? Thanks
Hey! Good luck🤞🏻. Tbh I've been slacking off on these notes 🤦🏻♀️ hopefully I will have them ready for the fall 🍁
@@npstudentchronicles3652 when you do please let me know, am very interested. Thanks
You look so pretty.
Your so cute.
Your so pretty.
Hi i am prepare interview ....your teaching is nice .. thanks for your video
Good luck 🤞🏻😊
Actually breathing first.. A B C
Be sure to ask Tate and palate directly to the skin not through clothing. I have a friend that was failed because she didn’t do that. Not just this she failed the whole class.
Hi Tania, do they count international experience or just Canadian
Hi! I'm not sure. My training was all done in Canada. I would suggest calling the admissions office to get a clear answer
Hlo mam I m also a Diabetes educator science 6-7 years in India . I want to job in aboard Plz suggests best job opportunities
Thanks for these video! I so much appreciate you! Also, Do you think these questions would be asked for a New RPN nurse for med-surge? or its mostly for RN's
I think it's applicable to both RPNs and RNs. The only other scenario I can think of is maybe "escalating to an RN" when a patient becomes unstable and knowing to recognize when a patient is becoming unstable. But not sure cuz I wasn't trained as an RPN but from this is what I've heard and seen from my RPN colleagues
Very helpful! I’m going to a nursing job fair today involving on the spot interviews. This has helped greatly . Wish me luck 🤞🏾
Hope you did well in your interviews and landed a job. Let us know 🎉🙋🏻♀️
How was your experience at the Middle East as a nurse ?
It was really good! I experienced a different way to nurse but at the same time it somewhat similar. Too long to type out 😅but it was a good overall a good experience. I don't regret it 🙂
Hello, thank you for the tips. Are you able to share your word document?
Hi Your videos are very helpful. I am looking for this certification a long ago. I have one question I am working on an acute medical-surgical unit, I don’t know if I am eligible for getting the work experience for 800 hours of diabetes education, whom should I ask?
You can call them directly like I did and ask. I also worked on a medicine floor and I qualified 🙂
If i have one month experience of diabetes educator then it help me to get job in canada after 12
Powerful presentation
Thank you 😊
For an international student of 2 post graduation nursing program who spent roughly 20k per program, 16k-ish tf (2yrs) to become an NP is not bad. Looking forward to becoming NP😭😭
Good luck on your journey! I don't know much about international nurses but I do know it's expensive!
Hello, just found your channel love the content. Are there any certificates we can do as NP students to specialize. Ex. Peds or ICU? Or is the standard NP license valid to work on any unit in a hospital such as sickids?
I know there are some throughthe University of Toronto...but I'm not sure which ones. There might be an acute care certificate. Honestly, from what I've seen once you're an NP, your specialty comes from experience. Some hospitals require prior experience. So for Sick Kids you would need pediatric experience (could be as an RN) and same thing with ICU/emerg. But some hospitals may be open to training you. The important thing would be to get your foot in the door at an organization. You can then move around easily. Hope this helps and thanks for watching 😊
@@npstudentchronicles3652 Thank you so much for taking the time to reply to me. I really appreciate it! <3

Thanks very much so informative
My pleasure 😁
Hi thanks for the video 😊 what type of RN experience did you have?
Hi! I worked in general medicine for 7 years :)
@@npstudentchronicles3652 cool thank you so much!
This is helpful, i will be having an interview next week. Im glad i get to watch this. By the way, how many scenario questions they usually ask?
Hi! In my experience usually 2-3. Maybe in more specialized roles the questions can be more than 3...for example my diabetes educator interview was like 6-7 questions haha. I was sweating buckets afterwards 🤣
Very helpful video, thank you for sharing! Do you know if this NP exam is also good for the States?
Hi! If you're talking about the NP licensing exam, the American one is valid in Ontario and the States. Hopefully that answers your question 🙂
She fine😍
Hi tanya, There are two options for canadian np board exam. One is the American one and the other is canadian one. Which one did you write? Which one is better for canadian np ? I am very interested in canadian np programs .
Hi I wrote the American one! Cheaper than the Canadian one, more options of dates (I think Canadian one is only offered twice a year) and valid in Ontario! Hope this helps
Can you do an update video of post graduation and how you’re adjusting to to your new role as an NP! Excited to hear about it
Hi! Thanks so much! I'll try to make some type of vlog. I've been meaning to do it but always get "busy" at work but I will make it a point to do it this year! Thanks for following my journey 💕
Hi Tania…as a registered nurse how can we prove that we have done diabetics education …do we need the approval from our managers or referral from managers that as a nurse she has done diabetic education in the unit ? Please reply if you can ❤
How many courses need for np (Now working as rn)
Thanks for this video. It's an eye opener
No problem 👍🏻☺️
Very helpful video. you provided clear examples. More power to your channel. Thank you.
Glad I helped in some way 😊
Hi Tania, I am working in a rehab and palliative area. Do we really need acute care experience to get accepted in NP program. Please reply if you can❤
Definitely not! You just need to show good nursing qualities overall. How do you go above and beyond not only for patients but for your colleagues and yourself...yourself as in continuing to further your own education etc. How do you show leadership ? What are some initiatives/projects your involved in or initiated ? So much of the NP role is about leadership, mentorship, quality improvement etc. I find that these are the things universities are looking for. Hope this helps!
@@npstudentchronicles3652thank you so much..❤
I Like the way you teach your practically online
Thank you for watching 😊
Hi! Thank you for this information. Did you subscribe for the book information and printed it yourself? I would like to get the hard copy but I only see an option for subscription online
Hi! I bought it online from the Diabetes Canada website. It's a HUGE binder lol
Wow! 7 years working 12 hours shifts has to be hard on your body and mental well being.
Indeed it was! I didn't really "feel it" for the first 5 years since I was younger and thought I was invincible lol. But as I started to get older I definitely started to feel it. But I learned a lot and made good nursing friendships along the way and helped me in my career path now 😊
Thanks for your invaluable advice. I will take it into consideration
Your nursing experience and the way you express yourself demonstrates that you are a good professional.
@@TheGalla86 aww thank you so much for the kind words 💓. Good luck to you!😊
Hi there! I just had a question regarding determining your GPA. I have my official transcript, do they typically calculate all courses taken during your BScN degree? I have some electives that are non-nursing or healthcare related, do they also consider this? Or do they only consider your last 2 years of schooling? Thanks!:)
They generally consider all the courses taken in your undergrad. Even though they say they look at the last 2 years, they will still take a look at your first 2 years since you're sending in your entire transcript. Electives are definitely included 😊. Good luck with your application!
Hi, just wondering how would you prescribe 1 month supply at a time but for a total of 6 months?
Hi! I would write Mitte: 30 days, Repeats: 5....that would give you a total of 6 months. Hope that helps!
@@npstudentchronicles3652 Thant was helpful. Thank you so much.
Hey.. Going through all your videos one by one..Awesome content. Please keep posting more. Maybe like a day in your life as an NP video. Thanks :)
I've been meaning to do it but always get so side tracked at work. I will try 👍🏻. Thanks for watching 😊
What is salary of nurse practitioner for freshers??
Hi! It depends on the employer. From what I've seen it ranges from $90-120,000 per year or more of you go to remote places where there's not a lot of healthcare (like up north Canada). But it really depends on the employer. Hope this helps!
I'm just starting as a diabetes educator. What advice and recommendations do you give. Did you finish your NP?
Hi! Yes I finished my NP program and now I'm a diabetes NP 🙂. To be honest, the best advise I could give if you're just starting out as a Diabetes Educator is to get practical knowledge in the field. The best way I learned is by doing and teaching diabetes with "real" patients. It's such a different experience when you're talking to patients about their diabetes. As soon as you get your certification I would start looking for jobs in the field so everything is fresh in your mind and you can start working in the field. I hope that helps! Good luck on becoming a CDE😊
Hi, love your videos!! Currently in my last year of the PHCNP program (Ontario), taking AHAD and THERAPEUTICS. Your videos are super helpful :) Just passed by head to toe with flying colors and watched your video before studying.
OMG that's amazing!! So happy I can help you get through NP school in some way! The struggle is real. Good luck on your last year 🙂
looking forward to more videos :) @@npstudentchronicles3652
