I was licensed in in October, I am still working as a RN and had not been very vigilant in finding work as I did not want to travel very far and I live in a rural area.l, so I only applied to local. Jobs that I really wanted, but did not hear back. The nursing shortage we've experienced has provided me with an opportunity to make extra bonus money on top of double pay for extra shifts and I found this incentive well worth it to make money to pay off my credit debt and work on paying my student loans. I had never applied for any of the above listed in the title. I figured that once I had a job I could have them pay for the DEA and then get my NPI with my employer. I don't think I can do anything with CSP until I have a DEa number is that correct? Should I get all of these on my own? Or maybe just the NPI. My application to renew my NP license states I must register with the CSP, I'm confused because since I'm not yet practicing do I just ignore this? Can anyone give me some advice I am currently starting to apply to more jobs so I do need to get things in order thanks for the help
