If at all possible I would try to get a job at Vandy. They will pay for your degree, but you have to work there for a year before that benefit takes affect.

I had a 12lb baby a few weeks ago, born vag, which is what landed him in the NICU.

Hello! I completely believe in holistic nursing and find it very appealing. I am ready to begin my Master's program in order to pursue my interest in this field. I currently have a BSN, and am working in a hospital setting. I'm lost. I really don't know what degree, or certification to pursue. I guess I would really like to eventually work in my own practice by myself or along with a chiropractor or massage therapist etc. So I guess my question is how do I go about doing that. I can get a masters in holistic nursing with certification but what can I do with that? Would it be more beneficial to get a FNP and then get post master certification in holistic nursing so that I would be more independent in practice? Or is there some other degree that would work better? I am been searching online and it tends to get me more lost. I saw there is a school in NY that offers a masters in acute care practitioner/holistic nurse practitioner kinda like a dual degree, which seems ideal, but I think it's the only one. And I am no where near NY. Other then that I have not found any schools that offer a holistic NP degree. I was looking for advice from those of you who are already practicing in this field, and know the best options to pursue. Thanks for any advice in advance.
