In collaboration with Nicholas Goodwin, DNP PMHNP, The Elite Nurse Practitioner is proud to announce the release of The How to Open a Psychiatric Practice Course, the Elite Nurse Practitioner guide on how to start a psychiatric practice from scratch, including telepsych! This course is the companion course to the Clinical Psychiatry for the NP Course which is being released at the same time. You can take either the clinical course, the business course, or bundle them together for a cheaper price (plus earn 14 CEU)! That will depend on what your specific needs are, but I urge you to explore the clinical course page as well! Links are down the page.
This course is designed for the nurse practitioner who is interested in building their own psychiatric practice. This course is geared more towards the PMHNP, but any nurse practitioner can take it as there is a wealth of valuable practice startup knowledge in it!
This course is the only straight to the point business course designed specifically for the nurse practitioner who wants to start either a brick-and-mortar practice, a telepsych practice, or even a hybrid model! This course will teach the astute nurse practitioner entrepreneur step by step on how to get a successful psychiatric practice up and running!
Psychiatric medicine and mental healthcare are IN DEMAND and BIG BUSINESS. Did you know that the United States spends an estimated $200 billion a year on mental health? That makes it one of the HIGHEST healthcare expenditures in the country. Additionally, it is estimated that 1 in 4 adults suffer from a mental health condition, therefore there will ALWAYS be demand for mental health services. What does this mean? It means that you have the ability to help hundreds if not thousands of patients and also build a long-term successful business. A WIN-WIN!
