CNS in Home Health Program
Does anyone have any input on a school that offers a post MSN Clinical Nurse Specialist in Home Health tract? I own a home care agency and by obtining my CNS, I believe this would be a huge assest to my company. I went back for my FNP certification, but covid hit once I was about to start clinical and it gave me time to realize my real passion was home care and home health.

2021 Nurse Corps Loan Repayment Program
Still listed as Under Review and had 2 credit pulls. I have applied in the past with no credit pull. RN HPSA 18, not sure exact DTI but its high around 180% at this point with interest accruing rapidly. If they would only forgive my interest I would be in a good place! Good luck hope we all hear soon.

2020 Nurse Corps Loan Repayment Program
RN-HPSA 17, D/I 180%-I applied, my loans did not upload automatically, I did my best to enter manually, but I assume I messed up, likely making me ineligible. The portal shows only my application number at this time. It seems like the past years I applied, I received a credit check by this time. Is this what everyone is seeing?

Covid-19: The Guilt of the Work From Home Nurse
Thank you for sharing, I feel the exact same way as a Utilization Review nurse. If I knew my work would release me for a LOA I would likely try to find a job with a staffing agency. I have been unable to find guidance from the government if I can be released temporarily and assist with CV-19.

Going back to bedside to help with COVID
Does your current job allow you to take a LOA to assist during CV-19? I left the bedside also, but I would like to assist with CV-19, my current job as a federal employee is mostly paperwork. I am trying to figure out if there are regulations set allowing me to take a LOA and work for an agency.

VA Proficiency Nurse III Frustration & Appeal
At this point I apologize I am not able to keep up with all the requests and I am fearful any retaliation I may face. Anyone is welcome to share what they have and assist, I receive 10-20 requests daily and I no longer feel comfortable, I cant put my job at risk at this time. Good luck to everyone, again I am sorry I really tried to help.

2019 Nurse Corps Loan Repayment Program
RN D/I 180% - I did get a lot of credit pulls from credco on my transunion and equifax report on 4/8 & 4/15. I thought my HPSA was 17, but when I looked it appears it dropped for some reason to 13, so I do not have much hope. Last year I applied did not get a credit pull, the year before I did and my HPSA was 17. Not sure what my HPSA is really now.

VA Proficiency Nurse III Frustration & Appeal
That is really great work you should like you would make an amazing leader in the VA nursing system. I am glad you had those opportunities, some of us can only make changes in our local systems and attempt to promote outside the local facility, due to schedules, but based on who you are boarded by makes a difference. If the board you are sent to has no idea the type of position you are doing, key words are basically all they can go by. I know nurses who work hard, take manager positions, change, and create policies, with no luck. It is not possible for all nurses to travel or afford travel to conferences, travel budgets have been slashed for most. I personally say I already go above and beyond what is expected, compared to many that I work with, I see so many nurses try to create changes and policies, but many of our managers lack true leadership skills. After 8 years leadership, policy development, and education is only viewed as a threat. I am supervised by Associate level Nurse 1 and 2's. Education is highly discouraged, and work volume due to low morale and high turn over prevents many from going above and beyond. It is different for each of us on on our career path. I pray I can find a place my education, experience, and passion is valued and needed in order to better serve the deserving veterans.
