   scanders77 replied to scanders77's topic in Government

   It could be. I’ve never heard of it either. I’ve hunted around online thinking maybe it was a role specific to the VA, but except for the initial job posting, I can’t find it anywhere. There is now a Clinical Nurse Expert for Psychiatric Clinics post...
