    FREE TUITION - FREE BSN - University of Arizona

    The difference in cost for the traditional BSN v. the accelerated 2nd degree BSN is due to state funding for the traditional program. The accelerated BSN program is not eligible for State of Arizona...

    Insurance

    Look into if the policies cover "tail" claims. You need to know if the policy covers claims that come in after you no longer have the coverage (like if you stop paying for the coverage or when you...

    RN to BSN - is it as hard as the RN was?

    At the risk of sounding like a complete academic nerd, I do think paper writing is beneficial to patient care. It forces us to form complex thoughts about relevant subject material and discuss it in...

    Whats the deal with all the crying?!?!....

    When crying irritates/angers me is when the "crier" is using tears for manipulative purposes or in an unconscious attempt to be treated with kid gloves or to let something

    Whats the deal with all the crying?!?!....

    I've cried twice during nursing school. But never in front of anyone, and I always kept myself together until I got home. I have "a thing" about never letting anyone at work or school seeing me cry....

    Has anyone gotten an A in the Rio sciences?

    I got an A in Microbiology from Rio. I will say an A from Rio is more difficult than traditional in-person classes. You actually have to understand and know EVERYTHING in your assigned reading, not...

    Fingerprints for BON and Pyxis: Unable to Print or Scan

    That's OK. I've tried that. They were unable to get a passable scan on me. Thank you, though

    Fingerprints for BON and Pyxis: Unable to Print or Scan

    I called the BON and talked to someone in licensing. They said it typically takes about 12 weeks from the time of 2 fingerprint rejections to completion for the FBI/DOJ name check. However, they...

    Suggestions for HOW TO FIND A JOB

    protecting your license is not the don's priority or focus. you cannot just do what she tells you to do, regarding your license. you have to protect your own license. a wise nurse here has a...

    Suggestions for HOW TO FIND A JOB

    You muddle through and survive as tens of thousands of new grad nurses have before you. Lisa, I think you are minimizing the role conflict issues and potential legal problems. Also, the scenario...

    Suggestions for HOW TO FIND A JOB

    A U-Haul is the answer if a new grad cannot get an LPN or RN job locally. As far as moving for a job and risk - you've got to take some risks. No risk = no
  13. Not anymore. The recruiter at this hospital is now telling new grads that they are not considering anyone with less than one year of experience. Any new grads that have been hired recently are those...

    Multiple Test Takers

    In my state, the BON is now showing on their website each NCLEX attempt and the test result. It appears under on the same page as your license. So anyone verifying your license will see if you took...

    RN to BSN - is it as hard as the RN was?

    A couple more thoughts. I think the ADN is considered to be so much harder because of the stress many feel about reaching RN status, whereas with the RN-BSN you are already there...just continuing an...

    RN to BSN - is it as hard as the RN was?

    My ADN program was about figuring out how to answer difficult multiple choice NCLEX-style exam questions and clinical skills. (My program has a 99% NCLEX pass rate.) My RN-BSN program is about...

    Advantage for Speaking Spanish?

    I'm going to graduate in a few months. I'm wondering how much of an advantage it is to speak Spanish, especially in the competitive environment for landing new grad jobs. What do you all think? How...

    nursing burnout

    Maybe a better question would be "why might they act and feel this way?" I'd ponder that before I'd say they should find another career. This is not to say being a grouchy employee is good - I'm not...

    are online MSN programs respected?

    Northern Arizona University offers an MSN in nursing ed. that is online. Benefits include that it is backed up by a "brick and mortar" university, and the tuition, even out of state, is

    Evidence of swine flu risk to pregnant women rises

    I suspect the reporter copied portions of the official autopsy report. Maybe the autopsy report listed "intrauterine pregnancy" (in an official manner) to distinguish the pregnancy from an ectopic...

    Ok. So, I'm devastated.

    Those of us in critical care and ED preceptorships have been told if the H1N1 situation gets too "crazy" we may be pulled out of our preceptorships and reassigned to med/surg units. This is uncharted...

    Having a hard time w/ the elderly lately

    I have to wonder, if for some, if it's the poly-pharmacy of drugs, particularly psych drugs, that makes them worse than they were to begin with. Then there's a downward spiral of more drugs, with more...
  25. Yes. When some of us went to the health department to get the H1N1 vax, we were told nursing students are not considered health care workers because the aim of getting health care workers vaccinated...
