Occupational Health Nurses  (OHN)s are registered nurses who independently observe and assess the worker's health status with respect to job tasks and hazards. Using their specialized experience and education, these registered nurses recognize and prevent health effects from hazardous exposures and treat workers' injuries/illnesses.]]></description>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>I've been an LPN for almost 2 years with about year and a half experience in LTC. I'm interested in alternative jobs such as OHN. Are LPNs qualified to work in this area? I really don't want to go back to school to convert to RN because of age, expense and other life goals.  Thaanks</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>I've been noticing that a large percentage of the OHN jobs throughout the US are contract positions.  Why is this?  Is it just a way for them to save money by not providing benefits to the OHN?  Many positions say &quot;long-term contract position&quot;.  If I'm going to work somewhere for long term (many years), I want benefits.  I can understand short-term contract positions that lead to permanent employment if they like you and vice versa, but there seems to be no advantage to the OHN to take a long term contract position.  Any thougts on this?</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Hi,<br />
Please everyone help me. I am so disappointed and confused. UAB's FNP program has reached the limit.It sounds like it reached the limit before they even reviewed my documents. I really wanted to get into their FNP program.<br />
Does any know about their ANP program? How is it? From reading the posts from the forum, I think It is hard to find a job when I graduate. What do you think about ANP with concentration in OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH? Is that easy to find a job? I have so many loans so I am really worried about job market. What is the difference between ANP and ANP with speciality in occupational health? Do I just need to learn a few more classes?<br />
I would really appreciate your answers. Thank you very much in advance.<br />
Mao</div>
