My original career goal was to be a physician-not a nurse for reasons I've already explained. At this point in time, I'm not sure if that's what I really want. The knowledge and responsibility/accountability are not the issue. Please address the topic of the discussion or move along.

I apologize if this has already been asked. I recently completed a PMHNP program. However, I have been reflecting on my entire nursing career, thoughts about nursing/healthcare, the quality of my post-baccalaureate education, my personality, my strengths, my weaknesses, my mental health issues. I don't think I'm going to pursue the PMHNP career track. I was a suck *** RN. I never felt competent, confident, or safe. I didn't trust my skills and had to be "babysat" well past the expiration date. I job hopped alot when I couldn't cut it. I pursued a NP because of my goal to have a better understanding of the disease process and treating disease. I want or wanted to be a healthcare provider. I currently work as a clinical nurse educator for a contracting company that partners with pharmaceutical companies. I looking for potential career opportunities for MSN-educated nurses that are non-direct patient care. Thank you for reading.

Hello. The program is online. There is one course where you do have to come to campus for 2-3 days.

So far so good.

Hello. Hopefully, we’ll have classes together.

I've created a FB group for students enrolling in Wilkes University's PMHNP Program for Fall 2019 named Wilkes University PMHNP Fall 2019. It is a closed group. Please check it out.

I see that I just got an email. I haven’t read it yet. Thanks for inquiring.

See you in class.

They didn’t...

INFJ/P. I work in correctional nursing. I will be a PMHNP student in the the fall. It’s interesting the number of INFJ navigating towards psych, hospice, or related specialities.

I found out last week that I wasn’t accepted. Good luck to you.

I’ve been accepted to Wilkes in Fall 2019 for this program. I wish everyone good luck. If you going, then see this semester.

I’m only working in corrections right now. I haven’t heard anything back yet.

Thank you for replying. Did you notice that your cohort had an average of over five years of nursing experience or was it a mixture between new grads and experienced nurses? Thanks again.
