​

OPTION 1: IF YOU RESIDE IN A STATE THAT REQUIRES CNS® CREDENTIALS TO PRACTICE

​

CNS candidates who will be attaining their hours in a state that requires the CNS® credential to practice will need to follow stricter guidelines which includes requiring that all clients be cared for through Susan's practice. Interns will be required to use Susan's electronic health records system for appointment scheduling, client forms, educational materials. progress note charting, lab testing, professional resources and protocols and the use of a nutraceutical ordering system. All progress notes are required to be co-signed by Susan. State regulations will need to be predetermined prior to joining Susan's program. Supervisor-intern review session fees are lower in this internship since the intern's clients will be participating in Susan's practice, however, intern-client sessions are offered at a significant discount. These fees are deducted from the supervisor-intern review sessions fees making them lower for the intern in this option. 

 

OPTION 2: IF YOU RESIDE IN A STATE THAT DOES NOT REQUIRE CNS® CREDENTIALS TO PRACTICE

CNS candidates who will be attaining their hours in a state that does not require the CNS® credential to practice may offer their services directly to clients through their own electronic health records system. Supervisor-intern review session fees are higher since in this internship option interns are directly charging their own rates to clients.
