    BSN vs Bachelor's + RN School

    Multicollinearity replied to jjjoy's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Both BSN programs I'm applying to have 2 years of pre-reqs and 2.5 years of core nursing classes. So they've always been 4.5 year programs. Now, with ever increasing applicant pools, nobody is...

    BSN vs Bachelor's + RN School

    Multicollinearity replied to jjjoy's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    The BSN programs that I'm applying to usually take 5 years to complete. Two years of pre-reqs, one additional semester waiting after pre-reqs are done to find out if you are accepted, then 2.5 years...

    Financing school

    Multicollinearity replied to *Bethany*'s topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I started out with student loans. Now that I've been in school three semesters and I've built up a good GPA, I've been able to get a scholarship for tuition. Thank goodness, because tuition is about...

    Have you heard about this new law?

    Multicollinearity replied to txnursingqt's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes, all state (public) community colleges and universities receive funding from the state to lower tuition rates that students

    Have you heard about this new law?

    Multicollinearity replied to txnursingqt's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Many students are unaware that the tuition that they pay is actually only about 1/4 of the actual cost (on average) of providing classes to students. The state pays the rest through allocations from...

    Does Grief Counseling hurt people?

    Multicollinearity replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    Well, I'm not fond of pathologizing the human condition and it's shades of gray. I am fond of psychotherapy being available for those who get stuck and need help and for those who do have...

    Nursing Program @Grand Canyon University

    Multicollinearity replied to Kabin's topic in School, College Programs

    Hogan, I switched from talking about traditional pre-licensure to RN-BSN programs. I was referring to RN-BSN decisions regarding which schools. But yeah - for getting that RN - just about however...

    Nursing Program @Grand Canyon University

    Multicollinearity replied to Kabin's topic in School, College Programs

    I can respect that. It's a pragmatic approach to the BSN. Some of us, though, care deeply about where we get our BSNs from and what we actually learn. For some of us, GCU conflicts with our desires...

    Nursing Program @Grand Canyon University

    Multicollinearity replied to Kabin's topic in School, College Programs

    It is so hard to get into a pre-licensure nursing program right now, that I say get in where ever you can and be grateful. I do think RN-BSN program choices are different, though. It's not so...

    What is a compounding pharmacy?

    Multicollinearity replied to justme1972's topic in General Nursing

    I've seen the number of compounding pharmacies increase in my city in the past few years. I thought they were becoming more popular due to the increase in women wanting bio-identical hormones....

    Are LPN's really nurses in the eyes of RN's

    Multicollinearity replied to LUVyourCNA's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think all (or most) BSNs look down on

    Rapid Response Team for Families

    Multicollinearity replied to NursingAgainstdaOdds's topic in General Nursing

    Emmanuel, From what I remember about this documentary, yes, families have the ability to call a RRT just as nurses do. I remember watching the documentary and hearing statistics of deaths in hospitals...

    Rapid Response Team for Families

    Multicollinearity replied to NursingAgainstdaOdds's topic in General Nursing

    If you care to go so far as to get the PBS documentary I mentioned, you will find hard data and statistics regarding hospitals with RRTs vs. those

    Rapid Response Team for Families

    Multicollinearity replied to NursingAgainstdaOdds's topic in General Nursing

    There was a documentary on PBS called Remaking American Medicine that examined RRTs and the family being able to initiate it, among other topics. My first thought watching this was 'you've got to be...

    Multicollinearity replied to lpnurse!'s topic in International Nursing

    lpnstudent, I'd just like to clarify what I meant. In the health profession, everyone knows that LPNs are nurses, both in Canada and the US. I was referring to a certain 'fuzziness' on the point with...

    Professional courtesy from police at traffic stops

    Multicollinearity replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not so sure I'd want everyone to know I'm a nurse. (Of course I'm a student, so I'm not a nurse yet, LOL.) I can think of safety

    Survey: Would you pay Apollo $43,000 or Ethel Bauer $27,000 or do you have any ideas

    Multicollinearity replied to parkingmanager's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I would not. I would do what I am doing instead. I'm on the waitlist for MCCCD, and while I'm waiting I'm completing BSN pre-reqs and liberal arts requirements. By the time I'm done with the BSN...

    Yes. This education issue I referred to was years ago, in SK. What I meant about what might have changed was my relative's LPN scope back then vs.

    Multicollinearity replied to lpnurse!'s topic in International Nursing

    I think the original poster has received too much criticism. She asked about what CNAs are because she is in Canada, and they use different terms than we use in the United States. Also, I am familiar...

    Are most nursing students cruel?

    Multicollinearity replied to treeguy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The majority of the people I meet who are pre-nursing students or nursing students are pretty sincere and decent. I've had the opposite

    Multicollinearity replied to treeguy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Treeguy, I assumed you were referring to nursing students meaning those already in nursing school. Are you talking about pre-nursing students or nursing
