I am confused. There is another thread where a graduate nurse got in big trouble for using RN and so many of you couldn't believe she did that. Here a gradute nurse posts that she is an RN and everyone is yahooing and congratulating her.

So which is it, are you a RN after you graduate or are you an RN after you take the boards? Seems to me that there is some confusion.

I was a JD after I graduated law school and a lawyer after I passed the bar.

You are a "GN" (graduate nurse) after completing nursing school, and an "RN" upon successfully passing NCLEX-RN (state boards).

What's a med mal lawyer doing here? Sorry if I seem a bit suspicious of your motives. Apologies if you're just interested, but you have to admit it seems a bit odd.

I come here because I am interested in what nurses have to say about patient care and hospital politics.

I am a defense attorney who is interested in Health Law. I come here because I care about nurses. I know you are generally overworked and under appreciated. Who knows maybe someday I will be able to help you effect change.

Thanks for clarifying...when you see med mal and you're a healthcare provider, you tend to think of an atty. that goes after medical professionals.

Hope you find the site interesting.

:eek: I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU! CONGRADULTIONS! Now you too can hear that great saying that most patients give: "I pay good money for my insurance which pays your salary" On a really bad day I always needed to hear that.
