I wouldn't judge it based on one experience at one facility. I went into nursing specifically to work in psych. My psych rotation during my BSN was not good, but I already worked in an inpatient psych...
sadly this is not an exaggeration...heard this crap too many times and irritates the heck out of me. Most of them want the cheapest, easiest, most convenient program so they can continue working...
FNPs can specialize too (e.g. neuro, derm, onco, cards). When I had my shoulder surgery, my follow up appointments with my ortho NP were at least 20-30+ minutes.
Also, many PMHNP jobs don't offer...
This job sounds pretty terrible (seriously, no pay raise?). Are there a lot of PMHNP jobs in your area? Are you able and willing to move? The southern region has the lowest pay, fewest opportunities,...

I don't see how administering and monitoring ketamine and esketamine tx are in PMHNP's wheelhouse. I absolutely would not feel comfortable being the one monitoring patients undergoing this type of...
I hear ya. Love the specialty (I've been a PMHNP for 2+ years), but the constant back-to-back patient interactions can be pretty tiring. I do find part-time tolerable, but full time work would not....
I'm glad OP is speaking out in details. It's important to point out what these schools are like. Essentially, these programs are handing out degrees without providing any added educational
I don't know about legality, but certainly should never view someone's medical record without consent unless you're caring for that person as a provider. Again, most likely HIPAA
