Woks

I passed the ANCC PMHNP exam!!! Thanks to Barnstormin'PMHNP and everyone who put out a word or more to help. It's an awesome feeling to get past the exam. The exam was hard, I wont lie but it is doable with faith in God and much studying. I used the ANCC manual book, 4th edition, ANCC online questions and boardvitals. Boardvitals helped with the professional roles questions which were a lot on the exam. ANCC materials gave an insight into the pattern and thinking of the actual exam. I got a lot of child,and adolescent psychiatry as well.

wow!!! what a lecture and great info, thanks so much. This is so helpful. I wish financial education is part of our curriculum in school to get us well informed about our options. Thanks again

Thank you so much PsychGuy, am sorry i did not make it clear, it is 1099 and I have no idea how that might hurt. However, I wont be needing an additional health insurance coverage now.

Thanks Jule, I had psychiatrist and an NP who has his own practice as preceptors. Not many psych NPs here to ask. It is 1099, thats why I am concerned.

Hi, am a new psych NP grad out of Texas. I would want to ask for your candid advice here. I just got an offer with an outpatient clinic run by a psychologist. They are offering 75 dollars an hour, malpractice insurance and an unspecified amount for CME. Patient load is between 16-24. I feel I should be getting more considering it is a contract position. What do you think? I dont want to be lowballed or seem unreasonable. Thanks

Hi Mattdrn, quick question please, do you think there is need for boardvitals when I have the ANCC practice test questions and the book? I test in October and trying to prepare well. Thanks

please go for test questions ANCC Certification Preparation Resources

Congratulations , Matthdrn!! what a relief. I wish I was in your shoes right now, please enjoy the vistory, it is awesome, PMHNP

Wow!! Barnstormin' PMHNP, you are wonderful, thank you so much for the details. I am so relieved with the breakdown. If you want to sell your ANCC review book, new edition, let me know,please PM me

Barnstormin' PMHNP: Congratulations!! am excited for you on your new job too. Please can you break down how you studied and what exactly you used that was most helpful to you. I am just done with PMHNP school and preparing to start studying for the board exam. I am all nervous with all the horrific stories about how hard the exam could be.

Hi everyone, This is a question for the PMHNPs out there. As you continue to provide service to the underserved population, I was wondering if your safety has been a great concern. What measures do your employers and yourselves have in place to protect you? Have you had incidents? please share your experiences.

rajan2, are you in the 4 year program, the email says anticipated graduation is 2018, I don't want to be in school that long, can the POS be readjusted? I hope to transfer up to 12 credit.

Got accepted for PMHNP route starting in the fall.
