I've used WES eval for all CE purposes and it's worked just fine

Thanks!!

ARND, OMG, thanks so much for the motivation. You made my evening. BTW I am on the east coast. I see psych nurses on here been so harsh and inquisitive about us nurses, who were not previously active in the field and want to join in. There's so much need for mental health in many states. We should join hands to fight, advocate and help those impacted. I understand, they want us to know what's it's really like, but we should also at the same time share the pros and motivate those willing to join in.

PsychWhisperer, thanks for your response. Reasons 1. The Need 2. Job security-there are too many FNP. 3. Challenging myself-like i mentioned in my original post, I strongly believe my experience and education suits the role. So why not. MSN MSW RN CCM.

Bryanleo, you make this sound terrifying, this sounds more like inpatient psych to me, aren't there several areas you can work in , eating disorders, geriatric, nursing homes, forensics ?.

Thanks for your reply Verene. The fact that a large part of my nursing experience has been involved with care coordination, teaching , advocacy , and prevention, coupled with a masters degree in social work. I think this will be a great fit.

Hello is there a reason why you don't recommend WES? Just curious, because I am looking for an evaluator. Their pricing seems reasonable. Thanks.

Great to know! What's the cost like? How many credits for graduation. Average length of the program. Can I transfer credits? If so how many? Thanks so much for all your help.
