Where do health and wellness practitioners work?
Q. Where do health and wellness practitioners work? In clinics? Do they just speak to people? Do they have clients that they teach to be more healthy? I can't find a good website about what they exactly do!

A. They can work in any holistic health office. In the area I'm from (Los Angeles area) most will train for a specific specialty such as herbs, colon therapy, lymphatic drainage, etc. These specialties help one build a clientele since in this economy not many people want to pay to be talked to and when so much info can be easily found through books and such. Then many will rent office space - usually a room - in a larger office where there is already client traffic. This is the normal starting course as in this area there are a lot of people, a lot of practitioners, but not a lot of places that "hire" for that type of work. In my case, I started out as a Nutritional Counselor, then trained for massage therapy and then colon therapy. I… [cont.]

Can Nurse Practitioners open their own clinics..? If so, in what states is it legal?
Q. I am a Nursing student and I would eventually like to become an NP. I would like to open a small OB/GYN clinic here in NYC. I want to specialize in check-ups, screenings, pre-natal care, breast exams, etc. Living here, I can tell you that most places take about 1-2 months to get an appt. at. I was able to get an appt. before, within 2 weeks, and I paid $100 for a not-so-impressive doc's office..let's just say he used two fingers..slapped my knee..and said " You're good" in his thick italian accent. So my passion is women's health and I feel there is a demand for it here. I'm wondering if I would be able to open my own practice.

I once had an MD suggest that perhaps I had an over growth of yeast in my intestine but my symptoms were irritable bowel, abdominal pain, diarrhea. Tread carefully with these alternative health clinics, I would try to get a second opinion with a real doc since your symptoms don't sound normal. Have you tried antidepressants? Sometimes they help.

How do you set up a business as a visiting cat therapist?
Q. I have recently seen a documentary on therapists who visit nursing homes and special clinics with people who have various disorders which impair their coordination, using specially trained cats to treat these people. Apparently, holding a cat stimulates the patients, and is beneficial. But where do you get those cats? Does somebody breed "therapy cats"? Do you bring them up in a certain way yourself? If so, are there books (I haven't seen any "Train your own therapeutical cat"-books yet though)? I am a licensed, holistic health practitioner and wish to extend my practice scope. I love cats, so I thought I'd combine two beautiful things...

It can happen, but it's more of feeling absolutely on top of the world and 'high' for a number of days followed by a crash for the next few days in which you are at the other end of the spectrum feeling very spiteful, depressed, and possibly suicidal. Some people with Bipolar disorder describe the high periods of their mood swings to be even better than an orgasm (or so I've heard).

A question for Oncology Nurse Practitioners?
Q. I'm 26 and lately I've been giving a lot of thought to becoming an ONP. When I was younger, I watched my Aunt battle cancer, even though I didn't quite understand what was happening. I was extremely close to her and watched her in her final moments. She was someone I've aspired to be like as I've grown. This is partly why I've been drawn to the medical profession, and more specially, Oncology. Being a Doctor, I wouldn't be able to spend as much time with the patients, which led my interest to the Nurse Practitioner as the middle ground between Doctor and Nurse. So what has your experience been like being a Nurse Practitioner (of any sort). Are you able to give the patients enough time? Do you work in a Hospital or in a private clinic?… [cont.]

Nurse Doctor relationship employment state regulators?
Q. I am an RN employed at a family practice clinic. Two doctors own and operate the clinic. One of the practitioners has become a romantic pair with another RN. The part I'm worried about is that during a routine state inspection the dr was found perscribing narcotics to the nurse he was dating. (It's not me so don't ask.) The state considered the finding to be gross neglect on both parts. My Question is Could I lose my employment b/c the clinic could be shut down? Should I look for new employment? I have three children junior-high school age. I haven't been in a situation like this before, so I'm concerned. Others employed here are also concerned.

Question about a (slightly) premature baby's milestones & weight gain?
Q. My little girl is 7 weeks old. She was born slightly premature when I was 36 weeks 3 days pregnant. I haven't been able to see her regular pediatrician yet, but a nurse practitioner at the clinic has been tracking her growth on a term infant's weight chart. It just seems weird to me since she should have been bigger if I had been pregnant for another week or more. At birth, her weight was in the 1st percentile, head in the 3rd and length at the 2nd. Now that she's 7 weeks, her weight is in the 10th, length and head are in the 25th. Is that normal? She seems so small. Also, I had heard that when tracking milestones, you are supposed to go by gestational age. Is that also true for a baby born at 36 weeks? My daughter smiles,… [cont.]

A. My daughter was born at 35 weeks. She weighed 6lbs 6oz, so she was a fairly "normal" sized newborn. She was always a bit smaller than other babies her age as an infant, but now at 2 years old, she is actually bigger than most her age. As long as your daughter is gaining weight, eating and having enough pee/poop diapers, than she is perfectly fine. As far as tracking milestones, I never went by gestational age. My daughter has seemed to hit all of her milestones in the right realm of what is normal. You pediatrician should be able to tell you if you will go by gestational age or not.

Q. My little girl is 7 weeks old. She was born slightly premature when I was 36 weeks 3 days pregnant.

Would becoming a neonatal nurse require a Master's Degree?
Q. I'm a little confused on the qualifications. What exactly is a Nurse Practitioner? Is it required to become a neonatal nurse? Would it be possible to get a BSN degree at school, and then after, work for three or so years in a clinic (NICU unit?) while studying for Master's at the same time?

A. To be a NICU staff nurse, you do not need a masters; all you need is the RN. A nurse practitioner is no longer functioning as a nurse. A NP is functioning entirely in the medical capacity--much like (but not quite) a doctor. They are no longer caring for the neonates at the bedside, they are doing rounds. ordering meds, doing exams & procedures etc. A NICU is not in a clinic, it is in a hospital. Depends on the program (it will not be a masters but a doctorate DNP in a few years) whether you can work while in the program. However, one step at a time. YOu need to be a RN first.

Have you been introduced to Reiki? What have you earned as far as wellness and "back to balance" concerns?
Q. My friend Tom offered me this on the day of my birthday, when I was almost defeated by accumulated stress. The Next day we went to Chicago to a Reiki Clinic.

A. Reiki is a miraculous stress reducer, the reason being for overall calmness and relaxation is the release.

I had a sebaceous cyst removed dr packed wound i think i got all packing out any harm with a little left in?
Q. I had to go the er and have a sebaceous cyst removed... the doctor said it was not infected and i did not need to be put on antibiotics. I waited the two days as instructed to remove the packing... i think i got all of it out... went to cvs minute clinic and the nurse practitioner there said she thinks i got it all out to just monitor it over the next week... i just want to find out if i should have been put on antibiotics anyways... and also if having a very small size of packing left in will cause any harm? I went to er and they removed cyst... i just went to the nurse practitioner to see if she could help me get the rest of the packing out... honestly where they cut it open is half an inch or less... and it is not that deep...

A. Well if there was any left in it could get infected. Did they not tell you to continue packing it until it completely healed? If not the top will close and bacteria will become trapped inside the cavity. In my experience we always repack any wound until completely healed. How large was the opening? One more thing, usually the patient is encouraged to get in the shower to clean the open wound. If the sebaceous cyst wasn't infected then why didn't they just stitch you back up? Ask your physician. If a nurse isn't trained in wound care then you may not be getting the right info. (even a nurse practitioner) You should have gone back to the surgeon who removed the cyst. I would go to a surgeon and get it checked. If the sac was not… [cont.]

Inexpensive way to get antidepressant medication?
Q. I have twice in the past (in the 90s) been prescribed antidepressants, and once ritalin. However, in both cases I was not convinced I needed them and never took them. Now I find that I'm convinced those docs were right and I do at least have clinical depression (maybe manic), as well as ADD. Problem is, the first diagnosis (for depression) was by a general practitioner in 1989, and the second (and ADD) in 1994. The first diagnosis was when I was a minor, the second when was in another state and I have no idea the name of the clinic to get the records. Now I'm told that I'd need to undergo a significant amount of testing, nearly $1000 worth, to get any help. I'm desperate to get something to stabilize my moods before I lose my job and… [cont.]

A. Contact your local behavioral health agency in your county; quite possibly they might have medical staff that can help you. I would set-up an appointment with a doctor as soon as possible, because the sooner that you are able to get help with this the better.
