1. Is Army Reserve still doing ADN?

   JustFlyAwayNow replied to JustFlyAwayNow's topic in Government

   I have read LOTS on that subject. Do some searching and you will find stuff. Since this is a nurse forum I will reserve my comments But there is a very distinct difference in how they are used, in the Army specifically.

   Maybe it's a sign.. I should go ahead and do the NP/PA thing. I wonder if they are over strength in those areas?

3. Is Army Reserve still doing ADN?

   JustFlyAwayNow replied to JustFlyAwayNow's topic in Government

   I was told by the NG that most states are over 200% strength for nurses. And there are no slots for ADN or BSN-STRAP this year. So it sounds like the door is not totally closed... just gotta wait for slots.

7. Medtech: RN or LPN?

   JustFlyAwayNow replied to JustFlyAwayNow's topic in Indiana

   Hi, J. Everett Light is accredited by the IN BON and that's it! So They are in the same boat as medtech as far as accreditation goes. The program there is 18 months compared to medtechs 15. The biggest issue with me is class schedule. Medtech has ...

8. Medtech: RN or LPN?

   JustFlyAwayNow replied to JustFlyAwayNow's topic in Indiana

   Thanks for taking the time to reply. I think I am ok with the LPN pay while I continue school, but I really have no idea what an LPN makes in Indianapolis. I assume something like $15 an hour at a nursing home. I am also concerned about going for t...

9. Army Reserve Nurse Corps Officer Requirements

   JustFlyAwayNow replied to zrc2009's topic in Government

   I was told today by an AMEDD office that the reserve will not take the ADN any longer.. must be BSN . The needs of the army strikes again. It's not all bad because I am just starting so I have some time, maybe it will be back to ADN by then.

10. Medtech: RN or LPN?

    JustFlyAwayNow replied to JustFlyAwayNow's topic in Indiana

    Ya thanks. I knew about that ISU program but it seems like it would take a while to complete.. I did just find out that I can likely change my Army reserve job to LPN, then it would be FREE. But that would be 52 weeks of active army training... I...
