About banfftank8

I am a CMA working for an orthopedic trauma surgeon. I love working with trauma patients but am feeling that my scope of practice is much too small to help them in the capacity that I would like. I have my BS in Biomedical Science. Hopefully one day I will also have my BS in Nursing!

  3. Do you HAVE to have your BSN?

    Thank you all for your input. It sounds like it's definitely region dependent. I do have a BS in Biology (Pre med track) so I do often wonder if that would make a difference. I didn't realize that the online BSN was a cheaper option so thank you for ...
  4. Do you HAVE to have your BSN?

    For the short time I've been a pre-nursing a student, I've always heard it is best to get your BSN. People have made it seem that hospitals with good reputations won't hire RN's that don't have their BSN's anymore... I don't want to believe this is t...

  6. WSU waitlist experience

    Just talked to the school again. She said they "aren't seeing a lot of action" for the waitlist this year. She said I should plan on applying for spring term again but that they are still waiting on hearing back from a "few" more students that haven'...

  10. TIPS on getting into nursing school

    I took higher level classes because I was originally a pre med/PA student. Completed my BS in Biomedical Science before I realized I wanted to do nursing instead. I do think that GPA is very important to this school. I'm just looking for other option...
  11. Hi there, I applied for the WSU BSN program and was waitlisted. I am hopeful that I will get accepted, but want to strengthen my application in the time that I am waiting so that I am prepared to apply again if I need to. I already have my BS in Bi...

  13. WSU waitlist experience

    I guess I could add that I already have my BS in Biomedical Science...I previously thought that I wanted to be a PA. Then realized I wanted to be at the patient's bedside at all times in order to advocate and support them...among other things. I curr...
