  2. VA Nurse Salary

    SydneyJo1 replied to kclindsay's topic in Government, Military

    Why is the pay at the Minneapolis VA so different from other VAs? I am one state over (WI) and the pay is far

  3. VA Nurse Salary

    SydneyJo1 replied to kclindsay's topic in Government, Military

    The VA is so tempting because the benefits are good, so I understand your dilemma. I am a PMHNP and was offered 76k, which is easily 20-30k below market for my specialty where I live. I had to turn...

  4. How did you celebrate passing your boards?

    SydneyJo1 replied to anh06005's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

  8. PMHNP reimbursement for psychotherapy

    SydneyJo1 posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I'm hoping someone can give me some info on this. I am a newly minted PMHNP living in Wisconsin. I was just hired by a private practice, and the office manager and I have been discussing...

  9. NP job negotiating help!

    SydneyJo1 replied to Cosmeticnp's topic in Advanced Practice

    I don't think you should take it. That is extremely low pay for a NP. I think that when we accept such low salaries we do a disservice to ourselves AND our profession by sending the message that...

  10. How many different nursing positions have you had?

    SydneyJo1 replied to LittleMissVixen410's topic in General Nursing

    I've been a nurse for three years now. I've worked on two units: Mom/baby and NICU (two subunits on the same OB

  12. Can you negotiate NP salary at the VA?

    SydneyJo1 replied to SydneyJo1's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Given the fact that the VA needs psych providers, do you think I am in a position to negotiate a little, or does the VA go strictly by the GS scale? I am just shocked by how low the pay

  13. PMHNP Drug Books

    SydneyJo1 replied to Dudenurse73's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    It's actually Stephen Stahl, but yes, the Stahl books are excellent and used by every psych provider I've had clinical with AND as a text in my psych pharm class. You can't go wrong with the Stahl...

    SydneyJo1 replied to s-lizzy's topic in Post Graduate Students

    S-Lizzy, I'm trying to send you another PM, but one went through and second one was rejected because it said your mailbox was full. :) Mentalhealthadvocate, I attend Vandy and I can tell you that you...

  17. Anxiety over in-person job interview

    SydneyJo1 replied to mountainaireNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    But having one more person to interview doesn't automatically mean you are being rejected! How did the rest of the interview

  18. Vanderbilt admits, what were your stats?

    SydneyJo1 replied to cayley's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

  20. Vanderbilt Pre-Specialty Applicants 2014

    SydneyJo1 replied to s-lizzy's topic in Post Graduate Students

    That is excellent advice. It shouldn't be too intense. Make sure you know why you want to go to Vandy and why you chose this specialty, what you want to accomplish careerwise, have a couple of...

  21. Vanderbilt Pre-Specialty Applicants 2014

    SydneyJo1 replied to s-lizzy's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Hi, everyone! I am currently a PMHNP student at Vanderbilt (although I was already a RN, so I didn't do the Pre-Specialty program), so if you all have any questions just let me know. I do the...

  22. OMG Say it correctly!

    SydneyJo1 replied to seanynjboy's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    This is probably regional, but the word that drives me nuts is realtor. People around here say "real-it-ter". There is no "i" in there, people! Other than that, sahnt-oh-meter and O2 stats, as...

  23. What to wear to job interview???

    SydneyJo1 replied to mountainaireNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I think the pictures of the clothing posted by TashaLNP2006RN2012 are great suggestions! As for the bangs, I would not "pin" them back. Instead, get them trimmed so they don't hang into your eyes....
