  1. Nursing: Then and Now

    Technology has helped nursing progress but the care is not as good as 30 years ago!!! We also lost respect when we stopped with hats n white. We never worried about getting sued. We had less pt so good give better care. Hospitals were clean!!

  3. nurses can't get sick.

  11. Endorsement

    the temporary license took about 3 weeks but I have been waiting for my permanent for six weeks so apply for that long before your temporary is expired. They are very slow and I call every week. Very frustrating.

  13. I am trying to get a Texas license from Minn and it has been a month already. I called today and they are still processing and she said I can't work until I get that but a agency here said I can. Minn is not a compact state so I have to wait. The age...
  14. Former Navy Corpsman searching for alternitives.

    Look at Excelsior lpn to rn, i think they accept corpsman in that program!!
  15. I went thru almost the whole Excelsior lpn to RN program but it took me over the 7 years and now I cant finish there. Does anyone know in LPN to BSN at Indiana State University if EXcelsior credits transfer there? IT would be such a shame to lose ...
