Hello everyone a friend of mine loves this site and said it was must have resource while going for my RN. I am debating on joining EC's RN program. I am a 5 year street medic in a busy city and very rural country outskirts. Total 10 yrs ER tech and medic background. I want to be a nurse so I can have better quality of life and more time with my family( first baby girl on the way). Do you guys feel EC provided enough resource to be a competent RN? Or is it about getting the papers and learning on the job. I don't want to be slacker nurse. Quality patient is huge for me. I feel like EC is like cutting in line. What is your take on it and I would any suggestions. Thank you
