  1. What type of job can I Look for now? New in HPMP

    I had thought about law firms as well when i was new. The lack if patient care didnt sit well with me and i also figured that law firms wouldn't want someone in hpmp as the legal nurse is essentially the law firms "medical expert" and could be easily...
  2. terminated RN

    Beg, borrow (dont steal) to get the funds for a consult with a lawyer. With some internet searching you could even find one whos initial consult is free. You wouldn't go into a surgical procedure without a surgeon would you? Dont go into a legal mat...
  3. Virginia Monitoring Program

    Hello all. Any fellow HPMPrs out there who may have some leads on an HPMP understanding manger or hospital unit in the tidewater area (other than sentara please)? The dialysis unit i was lucky enough to secure a job in 6 mos into HPMP is killing me....
  4. Walden University Textbooks.

    Any other Walden U students here disgusted by the schools recent decision to not supply texts as they had promised when we were applying? Seems to me that if a business promises things for which they expect payment and then do not supply all of these...
  5. terminated RN

    That $500 credit i got doesn't look so good anymore.... Disgusting. What a scam.
  7. Walden University Textbooks.

    What quarter ate you in travelrn? I am worried to find out the cost of our pathyophys and pharm texts
  8. Walden University Textbooks.

    The 1% was insulting. I complained to academic advising as they suggested in the email we all got that said they weren't supplying books anymore.
  9. Becoming an NP after discipline

    It will not. Think if every physician who is in monitoring, they all carry insurance.
  10. Becoming an NP after discipline

    Applying to NP school was difficult being in monitoring. Some schools (univ. south Alabama) wont admit those in monitoring while others (VA commonwealth U) have a list of convictions that exclude you. Basically violent crimes, touching children and a...
  11. Virginia Monitoring Program

    Skinny, Dialysis is always hpmp friendly. Forget sentara, they don't hire those in monitiring from my understanding. I know of one person whose in hpmp that works for Chesapeake regional. PM me with any questions.
  12. I understand there seems to be no reciprocity while still enrolled in a program but does anyone here have any experience with moving states once they've completed a program? Im interested in moving to WA state once finished my monitoring program but ...
  13. ACNP at Walden looking for other students

    Hello all. Ive just been accepted to this program and begin feb 29. What has been your experience with walden thus far? Do you feel that they are adequately preparing you for licensure and practice? I heard that many feel there is a danger of getti...
  14. Obtaining DEA licensing

    Pavment: good luck with your future endeavors, i really do believe the DEA # will work out, ive researched it a lot. Please keep us informed as to how things go i was recently accepted into Waldens AGACNP program and begin at the end of this month. C...
  15. Obtaining DEA licensing

    Ive also been wondering about this issue. My research has mostly uncovered that it will not be a problem for you. I know many MDs here in my states' program who have retained their DEA #s my reading has les me to believe that the federal govt. will a...
  16. License suspended b/c of taxes

    What does any of this have to do with "nurses in recovery"? I'm just sayin'.....
  17. Hpmp Virginia. completion

    NV, I also have limited experience but PMd you with what I do know/have heard. PMs often get lost in the ether on this site so please let me know if you didn't get it. Congratulations on nearing the end.
  18. Virginia Monitoring Program

    I found work fairly quickly, in about a month I think, but what surprised me the most was that the rejection, the searing judgment I fully expected from every interview.... Never came. We always invent scenarios in our heads that are much worse than ...
  19. Which state is this?
  20. NPs/grad students please share...

    To clarify: the criminal charge was due to the same drug use that initially landed me in recovery (thank god) and monitoring, this was not a second or relapse related incident
  21. NPs/grad students please share...

    Good morning all. I am applying to grad schools right now to become an NP. Ideally I'd like to train as an acute care care NP but I'll take what I can get. I'm expecting more denials than accepts but hopefully this is just negative thinking. I've bee...
  22. Debating going for BSN...

    Agree with dagobah. As long as there's no clinicals your monitoring program really has no say or business re your schooling. Your license is Unencumbered and thus unrestricted so you're good there too. Check out university of Ohio rn-BSN, no clinical...
  23. Nurse Corps Loan Repayment 2014!

    Hello all. I am finishing an RN-BSN program and want to start an NP after that. I am just starting to learn about these repayment programs and have a question. I was able to find a list of facilities on the hrsa web site but I couldn't find a single ...
  24. Job applications...

    5 years narc restriction? I'm assuming that your monitoring program is 5 years as well? Blanket restriction for the entire time rather than a graduated and monitored return to full practice? So theoretically the day you could be surrounded by and h...
  25. TNPAP and TN Board of NSG

    That's crap but it seems to happen all over. I've heard through cadeuceous folks about nurses being sent by our monitoring program (va) to be evaluated by a therapist. The therapist then reports back stating that this individual does not need intens...
