Very nice video! Please do more of this. I’m a new grad NP and recently passed my certification and i look forward to working in urgent care as well 😀 this video just made me so excited!
Congrats! Welcome to the profession :)
@@ahmedmirza3458 What additional certifications do you need to work in UC or ED on top of FNP certification?
Love that I’m not the only one that wipes EVERYTHING DOWN!!!!
Love the content! Great to see diverse faces in the FNP profession. Can’t wait to see more videos!
Thank you! I appreciate the support :)
I appreciate the demonstration regarding the digital block, as well as the tip about laceration/bruising with concern for fractures. Digital block is something I have not done. Thanks for the great video!
Thanks for the video. I’m an icu nurse and also in my first semester of NP school. Looking forward to to possibly working urgent care one day! Subscribed!
Thank you! Good luck with school and try getting a rotation in an urgent care. It may help with getting a job after graduation.
Very simple, and on point. Thank you for this!
Thank you Keni!
We need more videos like this! Thanks for sharing
Thank you Jovany!
Thanks so much for sharing this. My dream job as a new FNP is to work in urgent care.
Good luck!
This gets me pumped up to get into NP school...
I am about to get a job at an urgent care, great benefits and bonuses. As a new FNP, i hope they train how to suture. I can staple, but suturing no.I am always open to learning new things.
There are many CME suture courses you can take. Just Google NP suture CME course
thank you Ahmed for this video!! I really appreciate the elaboration on lacerations
Best NP series on YT
That is a super Boujie Urgent Care. Great video though. Currently in Nursing school and looking into NP/CRNA.
Get in some food whenever you get a chance is honestly a wild way to run medicine, and nothing has changed since this video haha
For NP's with no urgent care experience, what suggestions do you have getting into urgent care areas? Great video too!
Thank you! I'd suggest working in family practice and try to get experience doing laceration repairs and I&D of abscesses. After a year or two start applying to as many urgent cares as you can. More rural clinic are often easier to get it without UC experience.

Great video. You seem like a pretty relatable dude. It would be cool to shadow you
Thanks man! I appreciate the support
Great video
I love this man. Great channel and great video
In the urgent care where I worked, we always had a lot more than 25 a day. Two of us would see often 50 plus --- it was tough but I did enjoy the work. Constantly overworked though.
Yeah, this video was shot during covid. This urgent care saw a decline of patients for a period of time.
thank you! nice video!
Wow loved this video!!
Thank you!
God bless you!
Like your Videos. ❤️

Great video!
Preparing to start in an ACAGNP program next month. Love your content!! You seem to operate pretty independently. Howmuch MD oversight do you get as an NP in urgent care? Also how many years into your career are you in this video?
We have an MD that reviews our notes and available on the phone for any questions. In this video I had about 2 years experience as an NP
@@ahmedmirza3458 Thanks Ahmed! Your content is very informative!!
New subscriber here. I like this video
New subscriber love this one do more please
amazing video. some question if u dont mind.
how would your roles and responsibilities would differ to that of a physician assocoiate. some key examples if you can.
i heard you work with PA and would like to hear your input.
thanks and keep up the good work
NPs and PAs do the same job in both the urgent care and emergency departments. In some states NPs have full practice authority and can practice independently in their specialty. PAs on the other hand cannot.
Thank you for the video! What is your your estimate time frame with each patient?
10-15 mins without procedures. Procedures like suturing or abscesses can take up to an hour. Now this is just time with me as the provider. Patient also sees the medical assistant for vitals and others tasks and radiology tech if they need X-rays
@@ahmedmirza3458 Thank you
I really liked your video bc it was well organized and had enough info with the constraints of HIPAA. I just passed my ANCC boards and now like to get a job in urgent clinic. I worked in ICU before but my NP rotations were in adult care (internal medicine office). What specific type of job experience can I try now so that I would be a good candidate for your type of job?
Family practice or ER would be good experience
Were you an rn prior to becoming FNP?
What do you advise
how do you chart on 25 patients??
Chart fast haha. You get the hang of it
Could the AGACNP work in the urgent care setting or any out patient settings?
They can only see adults. Most urgent cares see all ages. They could potentially work in outpatient adult specialties
How is it acceptable or legal that you don't get a break though? That's awful 🥲
That's just the nature of the ED pretty much all across the US :/
@@ahmedmirza3458 that's so terrible 😪
Is the digital block something you learn in NP school or on the job? Do you learn how to read X-RAYS and do suturing in FNP school? Thanks
I learned the digital block during my clinical rotations. You get basic x-ray education in school, but most of the learning comes with clinical and experience + continued education. Suturing you learn in FNP school, then you get better the more you do it.
@@ahmedmirza3458 thank you for that! Did you choose FNP bc it’s more versatile than specializing and having limited knowledge?
Hi Neathen! I chose FNP because I was interested in treating patients of all ages and I did not want to be tied to only inpatient medicine. FNP field is very versatile
How many patients do you see a day on average?
Depends 30-75
Do urgent care teach new FNP how to suture
You usually learn that in school. There are also CME courses you can take.
How often do you order and interpret 12 leads?
Once in a while in the urgent care. In the ER many times everyday
Hello. Thank you for the video. How did you get your training for urgent care? All places I apply require prior experience.
Hello, I was lucky enough to get a PRN ER NP job a few months after graduation. I built my connections from working as a ER nurse and was persistent on asking about ER openings. After that I got accepted to my current full-time role that is split between ER and urgent care. I'd say either do a fellowship or at least get 1 year of family practice experience and reapply. Keep trying! I also had to move to a more rural place.
@@ahmedmirza3458 Thank you for your reply
Hi,I need a favor from you,could you please mention how to become a Nurse practitioner???,I had completed my graduation degree ,Bachelor of science in Nursing .which and all requirements necessary ??
You need a BSN, some experience, and then you need to go to a MSN or DNP nurse practitioner school.
Ok Thank you
Where are you from originally
Middle East
How did you get a job at an urgent care facility? Did you need extra certification?
You need to be either a family nurse practitioner or physician assistant. No other certifications are required. There is usually on the job training. Prior emergency or family practice experience is beneficial. There are also online and in person CME courses that are geared towards urgent care that can be helpful.
25 per day? Is it a 12 hour shift?
