This is a genuine question because I might not be seeing the full picture. I keep seeing reports of buying additional ventilators for different areas. But if there is a limited number of ICU nurses and respiratory therapists will that even help? Thanks.

Hi polRN You basically wrote my story here word for word. I have six months left in the program and I'm also nervous about what will happen. The only thing I've had is giving it up to my higher power. Giving up control helped me so far, and I'm hoping it will continue. It's a miracle that both of us got our careers back. I know I thought I was finished. I wish you all the best.

Like an earlier poster I am required to take part in a four day "multi-disciplinary assessment" before entering the HPMP program. Needless to say it is very expensive and insurance does not pay. Can anybody tell me what this involves and where it leads. I can imagine the facility doing the testing might recommend inpatient treatment at their facility to improve their bottom line. Seems like a lot of money is being generated by this program. I do want help (diversion issues, do not need withdrawal help) but the right help.. Thanks in advance.
