The week I have been waiting for has finally arrived! I started my Family Nurse Practitioner job this week! In this vlog I’ll take you with me as I go through my very first week as an NP. Avery goes to her new daycare for the first time, and I have my usual rambles about how everything makes me feel. I have been waiting in anticipation for this week for so long, and it has been the cause of lots of anxious nights and excited clapping. But I am oh so glad its over, and hope enjoy 🙂
WEEK IN THE LIFE OF AN NP
HOW I’M PREPARING FOR MY FIRST FNP JOB
Next week I start my job as a Family Nurse Practitioner! I had quite the emotional week, including reflections on mental health during school, a rough birthday, and the expected jitters before I dive into my NP job. In this video I’ll chat about some of those fun emotional detours, while also show off my new NP binder that I will use as a resource for my practice as a Family Nurse Practitioner. Feel Free to download any of the reference sheets seen in this video, they are located in the description boxes of the NP Binder Videos.
NURSING SCHOOL STUDENT LOANS
Sallie Mae came to get me this week! Goodbye to loan deferment. This week we focus on the student loans that Joe and I have racked up over the years. I’ll talk about my student loans from NP school, nursing school loans, and what Joe’s loans are from. I’ll also discuss what our biggest regrets are in terms of loans, our education, and what we wish we had done differently! I’ll also discuss what we are thinking of doing to payback my Nurse Practitioner school and Nursing school loans, while still having a life. So if you’ve ever been curious about just how much debt I’m swimming in? This ones for you!
MY FNP JOB & AVERY TURNS ONE
Welcome to another weekly vlog! This week was much calmer, no moving in sight! In this weeks vlog I tell you all about my new Family Nurse Practitioner job, including how much I will be making, and what I used to make as a nurse. I’ll also go into what my schedule will be like as an NP, what benefits I don’t have, and what I have found to stress about now! Avery has her first birthday, 12 month well child visit, and I have my usual rambles. Hope you enjoy and all have a great week!
