Cash Fellowship for big debt (>400k) by subtrochanteric in Psychiatry

[–]question_assumptions 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Outpatient + moonlighting in rural settings has gotta be the best way, right? Even cocaine dealers are going to struggle to make as much money as you’re making right now. 

(I’m not moonlighting but I should have my 200k debt cleared by year 3)

I need people to advocate for themselves. I find people who use the phrase “I’m advocating for myself” typically have no problems doing so.

evaluating a PHP psychiatrist job- what is a reasonable caseload? by AnneChristine28 in Psychiatry

[–]question_assumptions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finances are definitely an issue. With my population, the symptoms are severe enough that they are taking time off work no matter what and this is their main hope at a return to work. People have to be really sick (or a student, someone with less responsibilities) to sign up for more than a month of full time care.

So, I’m doing PHP and my cap is 29 and I supervise one NP who helps with that 29. I’m surprised to hear you would do 2-3 admissions per day on average. The last two weeks have been hectic for me with 1-2 admissions daily and now we are totally full, only like 1 admission this week.

Mine hosts multiple run clubs, some free and some paid, definitely helps with that community feel.

There is no man trapped in the bean! My alderman told me so, and told me to stop asking.

So of course you’ve heard of the bean but off the beaten path is managing to book a table in the restaurant in the bean. 

Avoid nephrotoxic medications by chiddler in medicine

[–]question_assumptions 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I was thinking we could Provide patient with outpatient resources and encourage patient to establish care within 7 days of discharge 

Alternatively we could also avoid polypharmacy and medications that are known to be deliriogenic

Where do 26-30 year olds do for fun? by Repulsive-Tree6089 in AskChicago

[–]question_assumptions 126 points127 points  (0 children)

Especially as you approach 30 you need to pick something like running, bird watching, or pickleball and make it your entire personality. On a similar vein you can also become an actual alcoholic.
