Mental Health clinic pros and cons?

[jsnyder]

I work for a family physician that does ALOT of pysch care, managing depression, bipolar, adhd, etc. For nonrelated reasons I am thinking about quitting my job and there is a potential opening in an area mental health clinic. Does anyone have pros and cons to working in this particular clinic setting? The job description sounds pretty similar to what I already do now, vitals, rooming, samples, Med PAs, phone calls, patient assistance, etc.

I've not worked in a Family Physician's Office, but I have quite a bit of experience in working in a Community Mental Health Clinic.

It sounds like you've got a Realistic Perspective on the Kind of Work you'd be doing, jsnyder.

The Best of Luck to You and let us know how Things Pan Out.
