RN318

@Utim0 : Thanks. I'll continue to stay positive. @ NursePamela : No you read it correctly --- "medical home providers". Appears to be a type of medical model used in this particular clinic whereby the individual patient's care team is lead by a PCM (RN Patient Care Manager). The team is comprised of physicians, nurse practitioners and physician’s assistants; nurses; case managers; corpsmen; certified medical assistants and support staff to meet comprehensive healthcare needs. The focus is on prevention, wellness, improved communication, etc.

Submitted my PHS application packet about 3 weeks ago. In the meantime, have been doing some job searching. Had a conversation with leadership at Naval Medical Clinic in Annapolis. States needs more "medical home providers"... "could use more RNs". Informed him of my status. He stated that it was unfortunate that I was not "actually in the PHS" yet; otherwise he could possibly "push me through the (clinic hiring) process". I asked if there was anyway he could assist in expediting the PHS application process and the answer was "no". When I contact the "new call center" (I've called several times) I get a person with less than optimal customer service skills who states to "wait for someone" to call me and to 'keep checking the "check application status" page". Any other suggestions?
