  1. Psych NPs and Therapy

    1911guy replied to lc3's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    In most states psych NPs can do therapy in private practice. In most states someone with only an MA in psych cannot do therapy (or anything else) in private practice. You need to go on to a doctorate...

    1911guy replied to nurseabc123's topic in Government, Military

    1911guy replied to sweetiepie, rn's topic in Government, Military

  4. migraines disqualifying for ANG?!! disappointed.

    1911guy replied to nurseabc123's topic in Government, Military

  5. Interested in National Guard but have questions

    1911guy replied to sweetiepie, rn's topic in Government, Military

    I'm not currently in the military and I've never been a military nurse but I hope I can help a little. Most of the Army's healthcare assets (docs, nurses, psychologists, social workers, everything)...

    1911guy replied to 91W's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Mark, Serving as a combat medic with the infantry, especially during wartime? Any respect I already had for your service just jumped about 10 fold. I understand your thoughts of becoming a nurse and...

    1911guy replied to Toby's mum's topic in Maryland Nursing

  12. can a single RN make it ok in Baltimore?

    1911guy replied to baby_gurl0604's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Why would you want to do that to yourself. I've lived in Maryland my entire life and for the life of me I have no idea why anyone would move here who doesn't need to. Baltimore is relatively cheap,...

  13. How is it working in Sinai Hospital

    1911guy replied to ccu_idol's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Baltimore isn't a bad city, but it isn't great. Prices are decent. There are some great neighborhoods in the city, and some nice areas outside the city. But, we are also one of the worst cities in the...
