    Phasing Out ADN?

    Hoosier_RN replied to Candi Williams's topic in General Nursing

    While I did state CC for my ASN, then IU for my ASN-BSN, then WGU for MSN, it has to be noted that WGU is not available in all states. Not every area has this, or other lower cost

    Distance Learning Systems.

    Hoosier_RN replied to brutus00's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I Feel Stuck - Like My Options Are Limited

    Hoosier_RN replied to Ashleynurse101's topic in General Nursing

    Myself, and all of my friends have compact licensure. Perhaps you could PM me links to all of these jobs. We have looked through insurance companies, etc. Not finding these tons of remote jobs for...

    I Feel Stuck - Like My Options Are Limited

    Hoosier_RN replied to Ashleynurse101's topic in General Nursing

    I PMd the OP, as I feel like we may be in the same geographic region of IN. I have yet to get a reply. I feel like this is a) a venting situation, no actual help wanted, or b) a made up story for...

    I Feel Stuck - Like My Options Are Limited

    Hoosier_RN replied to Ashleynurse101's topic in General Nursing

    In Indiana, remote work is almost nonexistent to extremely hard to get into. Believe me, I've tried, and I have some decent connections. People in more populous areas don't understand. Some areas have...

    Should RaDonda Vaught Have Her Nursing License Reinstated?

    Hoosier_RN replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    Not a thing, but she's sat on TV and social media, crying to her followers about how bad her life is through no fault of her own. She's young and attractive, so they eat that garbage up like its...

    How is life in the ICU? I am in a LTACH

    Hoosier_RN replied to Beautiful_Beginnings's topic in General Nursing

    Nursing is overwhelming everywhere, regardless of specialty, due to understaffing. The less patients in ICU is their acuity is much higher, and yes, need for more charting. It's definitely a trade...

    I'll also add that there are patients, that staff gets to know, the well known frequent flyers. While they deserve compassion, they also, at times, drain precious time and resources that could be...

    Hoosier_RN replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    I wouldn't bet money on that. There are many who haven't bothered to read the investigations and statements. They believe that she was wronged by Vandy, an innocent bystander treated unjustly. Someone...

    There are a few that keep going back to Vanderbilt's culpability. The issue I have with them was the cover up. This thread isn't about Vandy, it's about RV and her license. Vandy didn't, in any way,...
