Urgent Care: Competencies

Specialties NP

Published

I'm graduating in May (Yay!) and have been offered job in a low-level "urgent care" - meaning, no IV's, not really many ECG's...No physician on site. We send a lot to the ED, for now.

Anyways, I am so pumped, as this is what I've yearned for my entire career. I have some ED experience as RN, but only a year. I've been RN for 10 years (variety of positions). I also have MBA with some sales/business experience (incidentally).

So - I would like input/advice on what I need to study/learn/do/know. I know the basics, and need to polish up on plain film x rays, ECG's, etc.

Basically - Any suggestions are welcome!

Thanks everyone!
