Psych NP Working Abroad?

Published

I am currently in the MSN program for a family psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. My question is, once graduating, could I work abroad for a year or two, or is that really difficult to do? If that is possible, would it be more for a volunteer basis, or could I earn a living wage for my family? Thanks!

Usually you can work as a civilian PMHNP at a military base or US Embassy. Embassies tend to have roving shrinks. I don't know of any NGO's that hire PMHNP.
