Is she salaried or private practice?

wow that's great! Puts a whole new perspective on private practice. I will definitely keep that option open, as I know when I start out I can't be too picky. My one caveat is that I need something somewhere where it doesn't snow. Living in the snow belt I'm just tired of being frozen/cold/chilly 8 months of the year. I wouldn't have imagined in Alabama!!

Although working for myself sounds attractive, own boss etc...I prefer just to be employed. Don't want to deal with the headache of recruiting patients, advertising to get enough patients etc. Then paying for the overhead of an office and staff. That just seems like too much esp. if starting out. Although I'll be the first to admit I'm a scaredy cat! LOL

Hi myoglobin, thanks for your advice. I'm in a PMNNP program and am interested in work from home options. Do you have any advice on how to access these kinds of positions? Are there national companies that do telepsych? Or is it just pounding the pavement in your locale to find them? Thanks much for any thoughts you have to offer.

Congratulations iNurse for passing!! Thanks for your advice, its much appreciated!!

Congratulations on passing your exam! Thanks for the great advice. I'm a yr and a half out but want to get my 'ducks in a row' LOL. Could you give some advice on how to get the 'pocket prep?' I've never heard of this before. Also is the purple book, the ANCC PMHNP review book? Thanks much!
