I would go part-time or PRN until this lady gets fired. That job is so high turnover, it won't be long.

Great advice

Great advice.

Nursing school was one of the hardest experiences I ever faced. I been through it 3 times (LPN-ADN-BSN).

It all depends on why you are wanting to be a FNP. Is it financial? Wanting professional growth?

So happy for you!

Good point! Of all the things they could be addressing, this is on their radar?

Thanks for the article.

Awesome!

I would keep my vacation plans the same and enjoy my time. PTO is not a request in my eyes, it means prepare the others ?

Great advice. I would like to add that nurses are not punching bags so If in a situation with a disrespectful patient, tell them "when you want to talk to me with respect, call me" then simply walk away.

No. Im happy she's not in prison. I feel she should be happy at that sentiment too and give it a rest.

I'm working on my masters right now. Also lemme put that after my name because whatever we put on the internet is a fact. 'advanced' research applies to the whole point of the BSN degree. We wrote about Florence (once again), nursing theories and their relevancy (it's not), then we took a trip down to sample sizes and numerals, took a wild trip to writing about what qualities a leader should have, all the way back to somehow writing about evidenced based practice and indwelling foleys . All of that was addressed in the associates level.

As I said its a silly pointless degree. You did all this 'advanced' research at the associates level. If you didn't, you didn't pay attention.

Amen

I think you should get a few more years experience

No. Same thing that LPN's getting "phased out". With the pandemic, I've seen no difference in hiring practices of LPN's or ADNs. And while we are on the topic. Clinically I learned absolutely nothing in the BSN program. It's a silly pointless research degree.

I have no advice to give but I'm praying for you!

You can't.

The spitting comment was tacky.

Wow that's so sad and heartbreaking. When I call off I say "I'm calling off today" if they ask me why I say "none of your business". It's not their business

People also say they won't take it because something about aborted fetuses.

Nothing to be embarrassed about. If you passed some classes in the BSN program then hopefully the other school you applied to will give you credit for it!

I graduated from Jersey college. Im a RN now and I so are tons of other people.?
