  1. Name some part time work for NP's

    carachel2 replied to nyc2011's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    UHG is the main one and they do not do the whole independent contractor thing. They have per diem (12 hrs per week) and salaried

  2. Is Becoming A NP Worth It?

    carachel2 replied to 8mpg's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I'm not sure if you meant this post to show up in this string or not. But in regards to "is it worth it?" ...then I don't know of anyone who got a DNP who got a substantial raise. I know for a fact I...

  3. Take the Offer as a New Grad?

    carachel2 replied to Vitabella's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    In Texas, $64K is a part-time 24 hr per week job for an NP. How Southeast is this

  4. Wrongful termination?

    carachel2 replied to greygooseuria's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Not to mention that average unemployment for a worker making $100K is around $300 a week. For 2-4 weeks it's not even worth your time to fill out the

  5. In-home NP Medicare Assessments

    carachel2 replied to lvICU's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    You seem so excited...all I'll say to you is good

  6. In-home NP Medicare Assessments

    carachel2 replied to lvICU's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    That's fine..I wasn't arguing. I was just letting you know that this is not the norm for the company I work for. It does seem like a lot to me, but I suppose if you are doing it full time + you can...

  7. In-home NP Medicare Assessments

    carachel2 replied to lvICU's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    1. I'm not familiar with the company you are talking about. The company I work with does not do independent contractors. 2. I would be leary of a company/recruiter promising you that much money OR at...

  8. In home assessments

    carachel2 replied to Missy89's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    You can message me with questions

  9. Who continued to work?

    carachel2 replied to nyc2011's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I worked 1-2 days a week until my last two semesters when it just became near impossible to schedule clinicals around class time, work and family life. I didn't *have* to work though thank goodness...

  10. Uber NPs?

    carachel2 replied to steffyh's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    There is a dallas based pedi NP group starting this up..looks fascinating and like such a great

  11. Misdiagnosis

    carachel2 replied to orangepink's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Anyone who says they have not is either a.) fresh out of school or b.)lying! It happens. Own it. Research has shown consistently shown that providers who own it and have a frank discussion with a...

  12. Any NP's work for solo physicians?

    carachel2 replied to Nacki's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I've worked for a solo FP MD for almost five years. Overall it has been a wonderful experience, but the extreme lack of benefits is one of the reason I am finally moving on. I did finally successfully...

  13. Do DNPs get compensated more

    carachel2 replied to nurselyfe4115's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    Really? I know the salary ranges for DNP faculty at a local university and let's just say it's ironically low...because all of the faculty encouraged us to never accept offers in that low range.

  14. Name some part time work for NP's

    carachel2 replied to nyc2011's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I have worked part-time in family practice for years. It was weird, once I let it be known via networking that I only wanted part-time, I had THREE offers as a new FNP. Those jobs are out there for...

  15. First NP Job and unhappy...What to do?

    carachel2 replied to TCUgirl15's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I think part of your problem is a.) you had expectations that you would have an orientation like you did as an RN...and you did not. Most of us do not unless working in specialty i.e. derm, etc. My...

  16. Time off after graduating

    carachel2 replied to moonischasingme1's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Ok, time to change your mentality. I was in your shoes about 5 years ago. Once I unapologetically made it clear I was looking for part-time work i swear I had like 3 part-time offers falling out of...

  17. Time off after graduating

    carachel2 replied to moonischasingme1's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I feel your pain. Is there any way you could work part time ? There ARE plenty of part-time jobs out there, but they tend to be with smaller practices,

  18. In home assessments

    carachel2 replied to Missy89's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Hang in there! It is a huge company and they definitely do this in a professional way. I've heard the VA can take 6 months and I assure you that won't

  19. In home assessments

    carachel2 replied to Missy89's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Tiffany...how did your interview

  20. Leaving Social Work to become a Nurse Practitioner

    carachel2 replied to dazed&confused8's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Moral of the story here: don't major in psych or social work! I'm sure that sounds flippant, but making a living in those fields is a constant struggle. I've already told my 16 year old I will help...

  21. First NP Job With Little Autonomy

    carachel2 replied to RNJill's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Ok, my first few thoughts are....other than the having to present each case to the doc thing, do you like the practice setting ? What efforts have been made by you and the other NP to sit down with...

  22. First NP Job With Little Autonomy

    carachel2 replied to RNJill's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    So who requires you to have the patient see the MD each and every time? Clinic "rules" or just that particular MD ? Or is it some weird state practice act

  23. In home assessments

    carachel2 replied to Missy89's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    All of your training will be paid. Also they have a Summit/Conference every year and they will pay you to attend each day, pay for your flight, room and food for the whole thing

  24. Need insight

    carachel2 replied to misslaceyob's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Well, me and my colleagues (four others who work family practice and see about 18-24 per day, no rounding) must totally suck or have the wrong system. Because none of us are done at 4. I'm five years...

  25. Need insight

    carachel2 replied to misslaceyob's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Umm, no. I wouldn't pay that kind of money. Is there no way to do a local or state university? Mine only cost like $20K. The above post about you working 8-4...sorry BostonNP but that's just...
