  1. Problem physician

    I say vote with your feet. Hospitals can't operate without nurses. They will eventually have to do something about this guy or deal with a law suit. He is probably not worth that much to the hospital. Meanwhile, you could be quite happy somewhere els...

  3. HELP DNP vs FNP

    I agree! Also the BSN-DNP is 90+ credit hours. Not everyone can get it done in three years.

    Yes! more education!
  11. What is the Problem?

    Well no, I wasn't a CNA or LVN/LPN... Started as an RN, then BSN and now working on DNP. I think starting as a CNA then working your way up is the best way however...you would gain valuable experience! I wish I would have done it that way.
  12. What is the Problem?

    I think it would be helpful in this situation to involve the CNAs in the decision making and planning of care for the patients and see them as valuable team members. I find CNAs can share great information related to their observations and relation...
