I also got into the Fall 2019 PMHNP program. I called today to see what the on campus requirements were and I was told 2-3X's each semester (friday and Saturday). The program is so new of course they don't have what their pass rate for certification is. I'm torn between this program with concurrent class and clinicals vs another program with courses all at the beginning.

Arizona state or University of Arizona offers a dual phd/dnp as well

Zenman, I don't participate enough to send a private message. I see you work for the military and I would just like to ask some questions. I'm in the Army and starting my PMHNP clinical next semester, and I'm at the crossroad of getting out or staying in. I'm trying to make the best informed decision since military is all that I know! My email is [email protected] and I would appreciate picking your brain. Thanks

Does USPHS offer nurses or APRN's bonuses? I ask because I'm thinking about jumping ship from Army to USPHS once I finish psych NP, but the army is still offering 20,000 a year for 4 year obligation?

Hello, I'm an Army ICU nurse for the last 2 years now (total army time 8 yrs), and I will say she take the course if that's what she wants to do. When I went to the course in 2011 there were 3 locations (Ft. Sam, Walter Reed, and Madigan) now it's down to one at Ft.Sam joined with the ER nurses, point being it's difficult to get the course when you want it these days. We just got 6 new ICU nurses from the course and a few being from Ft. Sam, and it took over a year for approval to get a course date. The course material is nothing military about it (except working in a military hospital and doing an apft)...it's strictly patho and pharm and lot of it in a short period of time. I was a public health nurse prior to going to ICU course (basically hadn't touched/seen a sick patient in over 2 yrs), and I managed somehow to pass! Maybe the OIC wasn't aware of her Med-surg experience....I wouldn't worry too much about a bad OER (if it's bad in nursing it's usually do to OIC not being able to write well or the nurse did something terrible).
