    RN4KU replied to mefifome's topic in First Year After Licensure

  11. VA Nurse Practitioner

    RN4KU replied to serenitylove14's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    To practice as an NP yes you have to have your own NPI# because NP's work just as a doctor does. The VA works in PACT teams, the NP or Doctor is the top, then you have a nurse, SW, and admin service...

    RN4KU replied to mefifome's topic in First Year After Licensure

    RN4KU replied to mefifome's topic in First Year After Licensure

    RN4KU replied to mefifome's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Are you an RN or FNP? I don't know if you can have your facility re-evaluted for next year. 12 does put you in Tier 2, not sure if funding ever makes it that far. But never hurts to try if you...

  16. VA Nurse Practitioner

    RN4KU replied to serenitylove14's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I have never heard of an individual taking a new job and being dropped a step. I would never take a job as an FNP in the VA upon graduation if they dropped me to a nurse 2. I guess it is possible to...

    RN4KU replied to mefifome's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I see people with lower D/I rewarded, or lower HPSA's but each year the reward rules change a little. One year they focused on the HPSA, last year as long as you were in Tier 1 it went by D/I. I...

  23. Why is the VA asking for my last pay stub?

    RN4KU replied to RNewbie's topic in Government, Military

    This makes NO SENSE at all, but nothing at the VA surprises me. Title 38 employees have a set nursing scale based on what you are boarded. I currently work at the VA I was boarded as a Nurse 2 step...
