In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: After you have practiced as an RN for 2 years or more, get certified as a psychiatric nurse or psychiatric nurse practitioner with the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) or equivalent organization in your country. In the U.S., certification is required in many states, and recommended in others.  To qualify for the certification, have the equivalent of 2 years full-time work as a licensed RN. Show that you have completed least 2,000 hours of clinical practice in psychiatric–mental health nursing in the last 3 years. Use your BSN, MSN, or continuing education transcripts to show that you have taken at least 30 hours of continuing education in psychiatric-mental health nursing in the last 3 years. In the United States, requirements for this certification will vary depending on your state. After you have your BSN and RN license, consider pursuing a graduate degree to become either a psychiatric nurse practitioner or clinical nurse specialist. You will be better paid and have more responsibilities. To get an MSN, apply to highly-ranked graduate programs. Then complete a practicum under supervision to earn certification as a specialist in child, adolescent, or adult psychiatric nursing. There are some MSN programs, often called "entry-level," that do not require you to have a BSN as long as you already have an undergraduate degree. These programs typically last 3 years rather than 2. Only 1% of U.S. nurses have a doctoral degree, but it only takes 2-4 years of further study, depending on your program, after you complete your MSN to earn a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) or PhD.  With an advanced degree, you will study how diseases and mental illnesses progress from a clinical point of view. If you are interested in education and research, a doctoral degree will allow you to become a Nurse Educator or a Nurse Researcher.
Summary: Earn certification as a psychiatric nurse practitioner. Consider pursuing a Masters of Science in Nursing degree. Get your doctorate if you are interested in research and education.

Usually, $5 is a good amount, but be sure to adjust the price for special services like waxing or interior detailing. You may also up the price when it comes to large SUV or vans. Alternatively, you can ask for donations, which can sometimes result in more revenue than charging for the wash outright. Keep in mind that you’ll also need to designate a volunteer to candle cash. Determine your budget before you go shopping for supplies. Most of the funds should be allocated towards necessary materials. Then, if you have some left over, you can think about non-necessities. If you are offered discretionary funds from your school or organizations, whoever approved the funds will probably want to see and approve a copy as well.  For instance, if you have a budget of $50, allocate $30 to $40 towards buckets, soap, polishing tools, and anything else you might need. Then, spend around $10 on posters, markers, and other items needed for advertising. Whatever’s left over can be spent on extra supplies or, if applicable, concessions. If you’re working with a strict budget, go to the store where you plan to purchase items first to tally up the prices. Ask your school or community center if they have advertising materials like poster boards and markers. Also, ask your volunteers if they already have some of the materials you’ll need or if they’re willing to chip in to buy said items. Things like rags and buckets are pretty common household items, so it doesn’t hurt to ask if you’re working with little or no budget! Go to a value-priced or secondhand store to purchase a secure cash box to collect dollars and coins. You can also get a fanny pack so the cash collector can wear it around while doing other tasks (like washing cars!).  You can use a shoebox or other vessel to hold the cash, but just make sure to put it in a location that’s not too conspicuous or accessible by passersby. If you’re only designating 1 person to collect cash, only have 1 box or pouch. If you have 2 collectors (1 for the car wash, 1 for nearby concessions), get 2 different vessels. If possible, buy a bluetooth or plug-in card reader that’s compatible with your phone so you can take credit cards. Or, ask your school, organization, or group of volunteers if you can borrow one for the event.  Magnetic stripe card readers cost anywhere from $4 to $10, so incorporate that into your budget if you plan to get one. Not everyone carries cash these days, so you’ll probably bring it way more funds with a card swiper!

One-sentence summary -- Determine a fair price for your car wash or make it donation-based. Plan a detailed budget that covers supplies and other materials. Pool your group’s resources to borrow or buy necessary items. Buy 1 or 2 cash boxes or pouches to collect donations. Get a credit card swiper to take non-cash payments and donations.

Problem: Article: Some people need a support system before taking the next step and actually seeing a doctor for depression. Before you choose to see the doctor you may want to consider if you want to involve someone else to come with you or be supporting you and rooting for you to get well.  If you are a religious person, you may want to talk to your pastor or clergyman to gain the strength to get help. If you have a close family member or friend who has dealt with depression, you might get support by asking him to attend the appointment with you. You may be comforted by the presence of someone who has experienced something similar to what you are going through. Before you make an appointment, consider how you might bring up the subject of your depression and how you will feel. If the thought scares you, and you don't have someone to go with you for support, you might think about choosing a different doctor to talk to about your depression. Understand that your primary care doctor isn't the only choice.  Some people may have more regular visits or feel more comfortable with other doctors, such as a gynecologist/obstetrician or a cardiologist. You can always talk to this physician about your symptoms and then she can refer you to a mental health specialist. In an emergency situation, an ER doctor or hospital mental health professional can provide support and give you information on where to seek help when you leave the hospital. Other professionals or places where you may be able to find help include clinical social workers, a counselor at a community mental health center, University- or medical school-affiliated programs, state hospital outpatient clinics, family service/social agencies, private clinics and facilities, employee assistance programs, or local medical and/or psychiatric societies. After you choose which doctor you want to talk with about your depression, think about your goals for the visit. What would you most like to accomplish from seeing your doctor?  Be sure that your expectations are reasonable. Choose one or two small, realistic goals for the visit. For example, going with the goal to get a diagnosis and stop the symptoms is huge and unlikely to be reached in a week. However, going with the objective to let your doctor know about your symptoms and learn more about depression is realistic and likely to be met.
Summary:
Figure out if you want to involve someone else first. Think about the rapport you have with your doctors. Manage your expectations.
