1. Accelerated BSN program at ASU

   agentarjuna replied to arieschic's topic in Arkansas

   KitKats, you're looking at the wrong program if you have an associates. This thread is about the accelerated BSN program, which is only available to people who have a previous bachelor's degree (in any field). The traditional program, I believe, has ...

2. Do you identify yourself as a nurse when you or your family are a patient?

   agentarjuna replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

   The best nurse family member I ever had was when I worked on the ortho floor. She ID'd herself to me as an RN, but then went on to say that she worked in L&D and had never even been to an ortho floor and could I please explain this Stryker CBC II...

3. Deep partial thickness burn--dressing ?

   agentarjuna replied to SlightlyMental_RN's topic in General Nursing

   Not a burn nurse, but a burn survivor here! I had full thickness burns to both hands when I was 17, and it was repeatedly emphasized NOT to allow the wound to breathe. They did perform "deroofing" as described above, and slathered me in Silvadene &am...

6. Do you identify yourself as a nurse when you or your family are a patient?

   agentarjuna replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

   I won't come right out and say it, and I won't be "that nurse family member" who barges in and is all "I'M A NURSE", but several people have mentioned the "explaining it to a 2nd grader" tone that gets used on families. When I do let it slip that I'm...

7. Accelerated BSN program at ASU

   agentarjuna replied to arieschic's topic in Arkansas

   Your previous degree must be a bachelor's degree. You must have finished all the pre-reqs before starting (but if you're taking the very last one over summer, that counts, I believe). Your GPA will be fine. Those are the only criteria for admission: ...

8. Accelerated BSN program at ASU

   agentarjuna replied to arieschic's topic in Arkansas

   Hey all. I'm currently a student in ASU's accelerated nursing program. It seems like you've gotten most of the information you needed, like how high our GPAs are and how many people are accepted. (This year they took 16 people instead of 15, but that...
