  3. Malpractice Insurance

    Mookiepsychnp replied to RNnowFNP's topic in Advanced Practice

    Yes my policy does have a consent to settle clause, however I was unaware it had no bearing on my employer. What protection do you have if you are named with a group of people and you may have had...

  4. Psych np or family np

    Mookiepsychnp replied to wayemika's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    If you truly enjoy and love psych I would go for that first. You could always return back for your FNP. Based on some of the postings here, some parts of Florida appear to be very saturated with...

    Mookiepsychnp replied to _zoubisoubisou_'s topic in Advanced Practice

  8. Salaried vs hourly

    Mookiepsychnp replied to Barnstormin' PMHNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I'm salaried and most NPs in my area are salaried unless they work per diem or contract work. However any on-call or other duties would require additional compensation. Three CEU/CME days, $1100-1500...

  11. FNP working in Psych??

    Mookiepsychnp replied to FNPAPN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

  12. FNP working in Psych??

    Mookiepsychnp replied to FNPAPN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    This issue really has absolutely nothing to do with "turf wars" but it is all about scope of practice and malpractice. If you are a FNP you are still practicing within your scope of practice if a...
