Try the behavioral health facilities. You may have to tough it out the first year, I did. I worked for a pretty bad hospital (high acuity, low staffing, unsafe, unethical drs and admin) and completed my 12 month requirement, then by making connections there was hired at another facility. I wouldn't have gotten the job I am at now without working at the first place. Hope that helps. I know that USRC is friendly and that there are home health options, where TPAPN nurses are. All the big hospitals THR, Baylor, and HCA will not hire you because it is against their HR policy. I was offered a job at Baylor by a manager knowing about TPAPN and HR shut that down quickly. I know we are supposed to be protected by the ADA but that is a joke for sure..
Good luck to you, hang in there.

Still looking too. I have been to a lot of interviews, some find out I am in TPAPN and their facility does not accept it. It sucks but I know something will come along for us.

I got a job in an HCA facility in monitoring with a narc restriction/night shift restriction. I am in another state, but HCA is the parent company.

Hey I am new to TPAPN in dfw and am unable to PM. I know this is an old thread but if anyone has any other insight on TPAPN friendly employers please let me know. I have found an opening online with a UHS facility and am going to give it a shot. So unsettling not knowing if employers will allow employment while participating in the program. Thanks for any info you may have!
