  7. VA hiring process 2020

    jaznia15 replied to RosesrReder's topic in Government, Military

    I was too quick on the draw today with filling out vetpro information. Certain jobs I never listed on my resume. One job, I was there one month as staff RN back in 2012. The other was my first NP...

  8. VA hiring process 2020

    jaznia15 replied to RosesrReder's topic in Government, Military

    Interestingly enough, I was going to post a question last weekend asking about how long it would take to hear back from the VA. I thought I was being a bit panicked for no reason so I didn't. Today...

  9. Bullying / Hostile Work Environment

    jaznia15 replied to jaznia15's topic in Advanced Practice

    It's the nature of this beast that is demanding me to clock in/out. She sent me an email with a breakdown of my "time". I was getting 9 hours 45 mins and 9 hours 37 mins. I asked her was she taking...

  11. Bullying / Hostile Work Environment

    jaznia15 replied to jaznia15's topic in Advanced Practice

    Thanks so much for your replies! Today I went to the GI clinic and met with the medical chief there. He basically offered me a NP position. This would be a lateral move within the company and take...

  12. Bullying / Hostile Work Environment

    jaznia15 replied to jaznia15's topic in Advanced Practice

    You're correct in more ways than one. I feel my supervisor has had it out for me since I stood my ground about wanting more pay when they added a whole new clinic outside my current specialty to my...

  13. Bullying / Hostile Work Environment

    jaznia15 replied to jaznia15's topic in Advanced Practice

    Thanks so much for your reply!! To answer your first question, no there is no one at the prison who is truly my supervisor. The biggest issue is that the administrator at the hospital actually...

    jaznia15 replied to Cindy-20's topic in Advanced Practice

    I am currently finishing up a post-master's certificate for Psych NP and am currently a FNP. You still have to obtain at least 500 clinical hours to sit for the Psych NP board. The only courses I...

  15. Has anyone ever done a post masters?

    jaznia15 replied to WinterWolf90's topic in Advanced Practice

    I am in the process of completing the Psych NP program in May 2018. I have been a FNP since 2014. I have a colleague who is a ACNP and he talks about going back for his FNP at some point in time....

  16. Jobless FNP

    jaznia15 replied to Nicola301975's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I've definitely been where you have been and I can definitely feel your frustrations. I think the advice being offered so far about being weary of a clinic which would require you to see 40+ patients...

  17. Negotiate or walk?

    jaznia15 posted a topic in Advanced Practice

    I currently am the NP for a federally funded program for treatment of inmates. I do like my job but the politics have me ready to pull my hair out. I was approached about helping to start up another...

    jaznia15 replied to jaznia15's topic in Advanced Practice

    I am so sorry that I did not update this post, I always hate when people leave posts unresolved. So to update, I am still at my job. Standing my ground worked for me and I was fully prepared to...

  19. Disappointment trying not to be discouraged (very long post)

    jaznia15 posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    After two years of hard work, I passed the AANP boards May 27th and am only waiting on the board of nursing to approve my license. Living in the Southeastern region of the U.S. I was prepared for a...

  21. Negotiate or walk?

    jaznia15 replied to jaznia15's topic in Advanced Practice

    A small amount of stress has been removed as I read my job description which only notes that my primary responsibility is taking care of those infected with HIV/AIDS. At this point, I don't think...

  22. Regret leaving the bedside?

    jaznia15 replied to anchorRN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    There are a lot more politics when it comes to being a provider than I would've thought. As a RN, you know your duties and do what you are assigned for 12 hours then go home. I had a bad experience...

    jaznia15 replied to jaznia15's topic in Advanced Practice

    I am steadily planning my exit strategy. I will actually be starting an insurance home assessment job this weekend!!! I got this job in the hopes of leaving my PRN RN position at the hospital. I...

  24. Negotiate or walk?

    jaznia15 replied to jaznia15's topic in Advanced Practice

    Ok this has been such a tailspin of a situation but here is an update. After going between the state medical director, hospital administrator, and GI doc, I feel I have been very misinformed by all....
