  8. Dual FNP/mental health programs

    resilientnurse replied to tiggr06's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    That would've been my exact advice a couple of years ago. However, I feel like a FAT ARISTOCRAT now (not really) :-). I am going back to school for a DNP, but I am doing it one class at a time, and...

  9. Easy/Difficult NP jobs

    resilientnurse replied to Fnpatlast's topic in Advanced Practice

    If you have not made a decision already, I think that your heart will guide you. Commuting is terrible, but there is an upside to it as well. For someone like me who has a full nest and my only escape...

    resilientnurse replied to DanaerysTargaryen's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Psych can be hard core! It's no joke! I am not going to lie to you. Not all of us are so lucky to love our jobs. There may not be anywhere for you to move to at times if you get bored or burned out....

  17. Prison Provider

    resilientnurse replied to nursetim's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    How long did you wind up staying? It sounds like you were willing to push up your sleeves and stick it out. Your description of it sounds like it would've been a tough job even for a seasoned Psych...

    resilientnurse replied to Teamnurse's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    You need a MPH to be a competitive international candidate. No ifs, ands, and buts about that. However, if you are a FNP and want to work in a US Embassy health clinic abroad you don't need it at all....
