Does the PMHNP program for this school find preceptors for you?

So I already have my ADN, are you saying if I were to get a BA and masters in psychology then I couldn’t sit for the PMHNP even though I’m still a nurse? So if I want to get my PMHNP I would have to go for the BSN then, is that right?

Thanks for responding. ”...or are thinking the masters in psychology is the same as a masters in advanced nursing with psychiatric specialization -- because they are NOT the same thing.” Whats the difference between these two? My ultimate goal is to have my own practice?

I currently have my ADN and am working as a psych nurse. I’m looking into getting my PNHNP within the next 4 years. I’m trying to decide if I should do a bachelors and masters in psychology or a BSN and a masters in psychology. Which would be the best option as far as career growth?

How long ago were the charges for the weed and booze?

Tell your daughters to look into Travel nursing after getting a year or two of experience. Try going for the high paying specialties like NICU, ICU, L&D. You can make pretty close to that amount of money while being paid to travel all over and see the country as well.

Im going to be starting the RN to BSN program in April and Im trying to find out what classes in the BSN were you able to finish pretty quickly? What classes have taken you a bit more time? Thanks!!

So the certificate would be enough? Thsts great news!

Thanks so much for the response. Here's a link to the program: Family Nurse Practitioner | College of Nursing Basically I'm currently attending WGU in their RN to MSN- Nursing Education. The school is very affordable and I could get my masters with very little debt. I'm debating whether to leave the program when I compete the BSN portion and enter a different MSN NP program which would cost 20,000 more per year. Or get my masters from WGU and then get the NP post maters certificate which would save me money but I'm concerned the certificate wouldn't be enough for employers.

Greetings all. I'm currently completing my BSN and am planning to go on with plans to be FNP. I'm currently researching programs and while I can find masters programs, I'm also seeing a lot of Post-masters certificate programs for Nurse Practioners. I know I could do the DNP but I'd prefer getting a masters as every job announcement I have seen only requires the masters. Are the certificate programs sufficent enough after getting a masters to work as a FNP? Do employers take those or only the NP masters degrees? I want to work as a NP and get my masters..just don't want to bury myself in debt doing it. Thanks!!!
