Is anyone aware of any PNAP friendly employers in the Pittsburgh area? Since being released back to work I have been on several interviews but it seems that the PNAP program turns the employer off. Because I have a narcotic restriction (and am in no hurry to get back to the schedule an inpatient role requires) I have been interviewing at places that do not even pass medications, such as dialysis and outpatient offices. I always assure them that the only thing required from the employer is quarterly reports (a one page paper to fill out, not an essay or anything). I also make sure they understand that I am in the program for something that occurred outside the workplace and in no way will interfere with my ability to be a great nurse. Any help or leads to employers is greatly appreciated!! Before all of this I had no trouble getting a job. I always interview well and am offered a position immediately so this is disheartening!

I work in dialysis (Fresenius) and they are recovery friendly . I had to get used to the early hours (5:30 to 4) , but I really like it, and it's a plus that it's only 4 days a week and off every Sunday (work every other Saturday). I don't know if you have a Fresenius kidney care there but it you do - check it out!
Good luck!
Thank you I will definitely look into that group. I interviewed with DaVita in reference from someone in the program but just waiting for a call back!
