    Well, this isn't direct financial aid, but the University of Arizona in Tucson has a sponsorship program for their accelerated BSN program. Hospitals sponsor the aBSN students and pay the roughly $28k...

    Nursing Student in Trouble...

    Is this too much?

    It's hard to say because we are all different. I just finished a crazy semester with 19 credits. Never again. I got so lonely. I turned into this academic machine. Thing is, for me, it wasn't so much...

    Anyone taken or taking Bio 201 online at Rio Salado??

    I suspect this is the problem with Rio. You have to understand and be able to recall and explain every single sentence in every single chapter of your textbook. There is little context and it...

    woman dies in ER waiting room (article)

    Here's a more terrifying article. This one details the history of malpractice at this hospital: http://www.latimes.com/news/local/kingdrew/la-me-kdday1dec05,0,5281026.story It would be inappropriate...

    BSN the only "professional"??

    Thing is, regardless of the terminology used in some academic circles, it was just insulting for this BSN nut to be pushing this to a patient's

    Anyone taken or taking Bio 201 online at Rio Salado??

    Rio Salado's bio classes are exponentially more difficult than in-person traditional classes. I took my A&Ps at my home campus, but I'm just finishing micro through Rio right now. I have to say,...

    BSN the only "professional"??

    Agree. Wow. Just...wow! This BSN woman is a real nut. I might consider writing a letter to the urgent care clinic and letting them know that this nurse was

    I found an interesting article regarding this hospital: http://www.latimes.com/news/local/kingdrew/la-me-kdday2dec06,1,1314406.story?coll=la-news-politics-local It sounds like this hospital is quite...

    woman dies in ER waiting room (article)

    I wasn't deflecting responsibility from the hospital. My only point was I found it troubling that officials weren't also questioning why police officers ran a criminal check on someone not getting...

    woman dies in ER waiting room (article)

    I'd like to see equal attention given to the police officers who were arresting a woman who couldn't even sit in a wheel chair and was screaming in pain. She died while the cops were trying to get...

    BSN to DNP with no nursing experience

    The brochure and FAQ link state that the public health nursing leadership is primarily online, however the NP-associated DNPs have "practica" and other courses on the university campus. This sounds...

    BSN to DNP with no nursing experience

    Every DNP program that I've looked at requires several hundred hours of master's level clinical hours. Here's an example of the differences between MSN entry to DNP and BSN entry. Scroll down a bit,...

    What area of nursing would you like to go into???

    Wow. Quite a few are interested in L&D, NICU, and Peds. I personally want nothing to do with the birthing of any babies or any sick little people! Neuro and hospice sound interesting to

    Question on laptop

    I've had my Compaq presario laptop for ~ 2 years now. I'm not fond of it. It is so darn slow. That, and I have to reboot about every 3-4 hours because it slows down and stops responding. I've been...

    BSN does not mean better... Sometimes education is overrated!

    I was referring to what I read on this site. Also, I think this is something that students primarily obsess about. I suspect that those out there actually working as RNs could care

    BSN does not mean better... Sometimes education is overrated!

    bold emphasis my own. has anyone honestly ever said to you, "i am better than you because i went to school for one year longer or two years..." really? and if you have met good and bad nurses, both...

    BSN does not mean better... Sometimes education is overrated!

    One thing I am tired of is hearing some ADN nurses' belittling BSN programs. It seems this is more accepted than BSNs criticizing ADNs. Not that anyone should be displaying disrespect towards...

    Paying back $100, 000 back in loans

    It sounds like your mind is made up. Personally, I would buckle under the plan you have set out. But we are all different. Also, I'm thinking about your comment about STD and/or LTD covering any...
