Nurs3645 Professional Nursing

champ312 · Aug 13, 2013

I'm taking it! Currently looking for articles as I type this out. I am doing a search in CINAHL database, which is probably the most appropriate database for this assignment. If you go to the nursing subject guide in the UTA library, near the top underneath the tabs is an italicized link that says RN to BSN transition. Click on that link and it will guide you through a search in CINAHL. Hope this helps!

The setup for this course seems rather confusing, doesn't it? Like information is stored in all sorts of places and isn't very centralized. I'm not liking it, but I guess I'll get through it.

I'm just not having any luck. I am getting articles back for transition of new grads or for programs going to rn-bsn online. So frustrated.

I thought the set up of the course is hard to follow as well. I feel like I am missing something, but I don't think so. I'm sure we will get used to it.

I am currently enrolled in this course. I am on Week 6. What articles are you searching for?

sassrn · Aug 14, 2013

Its the first week for us. So we need to articles for the role transition from RN to BSN.

Sassrn, I used this article: "There really is a difference: Nurses’ experiences with transitioning from RNs to BSNs" by Delaney and Piscopo. I'm not at home and can't remember the other one, but this is a good one to use. In CINAHL, it won't show up as full text, you need to click on the link that says "Click here for more info" to get the full text. Make sure you are searching in the CINAHL database in EBSCO otherwise you'll have a hard time finding the article. Hopefully this will help you!

How are things going with the Philosophy paper? I feel as though much of what I write is redundant and not very interesting. I'm about halfway done and its taking me forever to keep motivated and finish the stupid thing.

I am working on my Philosophy Paper now and a little bit stressed, took me a while to even get the title page figured out. I was a procrastinator this week, which is not normal for me.

Hi champ312, I have a question about this article: Are we do a summary of the article?

I am starting Prof nursing in Nov 4th, I am getting my self ready. Thanks.

Champ, thank you thank you thank you! I have been having such a hard time finding anything for this assignment. It seemed silly that the hardest part of it so far has been finding an article, lol. Googling that title and then looking at the related articles on PubMed has me all set!
