I know the tides are turning on the ADN's and eventually we may be a non-existent breed. I feel this is horribly unfortunate.
After almost three years of nursing, and currently precepting a very bright BSN I feel that I really had a wonderful training as an ADN.
I feel my technical skills are top notch, with very meticulous detail to cleanliness, sterility and technique. I also feel, because of the extensive time we got at the bedside, that my assessment skills and bedside manner are also strong.
I have talked with many of my classmates and everyone seems to be having a lot of success in all thier careers.
I feel I was challenged in school, that I was given high expectations to achieve and the skills and resources to do so.
So to all my ADN sisters and brothers out there be proud! Be vocal and gosh darnit don't be afraid to tell them how good you are in those interviews!!
