How's it going with the new job?

Try Cloisters

Will you be happy at the desk job? Will the extra 15k dramatically change your lifestyle? If no, don't do it. You stopped working full time for a reason.

^^Or a quality nurse.

Whoa! That's a pretty good offer. Am I missing something here?

it's funny you say that I was thinking they're probably should be, since we're getting more more PMHMPs on this board. So while there's no designated location, there are various PMHNP threads.

You should be fine. If in Baltimore area, try to work as tech at Hopkins after 1st semester in nursing school.

OP, any updates?

For those live on the Midwest out other snowy areas, don't compare your situation with the rest of the country. There are states that may experience snow ocasionally or no more than a few inches at a time. These areas are not equipped for snow remov...

I think the real name is Dr. Anger.....kidding....at least I think am.

You're doing exactly what you advised her of doing. BTW, it's a new world. Something tells me you won't be retiring at 50. But good luck.

So you leave a highly indignant message and you don't even bother to read her post? And let's face it. Some of the non profit schools are not that much better than the for profit schools, but that's for another discussion at another time.

Get a job where you have to abstract information from medical records. If you're already to do this in your position, highlight that you are doing it in some capacity. That's basically all HEDIS is. The next thing to do is to go on the NCQA...

Wow. I didn't know the passing rate was 70%. Anyway, I wouldn't say it's hard per se, but you do need to study. I happened to do bad in the areas I didn't study as much. Thankfully, I didn't fail any sections. If I'm not mistaken you can't fail an...

Would you and your husband be eligible for a health plan through a health care exchange?

I wish all of you well. I'm a BSN student at UAB (graduating next week) and will be in your position in a couple of years.

Just focus on communication and collaboration with the different health care providers in your patients team. You're focusing on wellness and psychosocial issues. You need to know your psych meds, need to know about the resources in the community, e...
