  1. GA BON no longer accepting Excelsior education; Speak up Cont. Updates!!

    Ronnie22 replied to zimsaint's topic in Excelsior College

    I see a couple of issues here that Representative Sharon Cooper has brought up in her law to harm Excelsior College and their nurses. If she says this is a "Patient safety issue" how can she then...

  2. GA BON no longer accepting Excelsior education; Speak up Cont. Updates!!

    Ronnie22 replied to zimsaint's topic in Excelsior College

    Sharon Cooper has a MSN from Medical College of Georgia, but I can't find out what year she graduated nursing school. She appears to be in her mid to late 50's. The GABON says nursing grads should...

  3. Petition for RN's in support of EC Graduates!!!

    Ronnie22 replied to gradyrn2b08's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Why should we do more clinical hours? Nursing students that complete a nursing program in Georgia is 400 hrs. I have more clinical hours than that by a long shot. I am not willing to do more clinical...

  4. GA BON no longer accepting Excelsior education; Speak up Cont. Updates!!

    Ronnie22 replied to zimsaint's topic in Excelsior College

    I think she is up for reelection this November. I saw a site with her pic and bio, also the recent runoff with her numbers. I'll try to find the link, and who she will be running against.

  6. GA BON no longer accepting Excelsior education; Speak up Cont. Updates!!

    Ronnie22 replied to zimsaint's topic in Excelsior College

    I'm really glad Representative Cooper is in Marietta. The nurse managers at Kennestone Hospital are very upset about this new law. I know many that live in her district will be voting when she runs...

  7. so, why not just arrange preceptored clinicals?

    Ronnie22 replied to DonutNurse's topic in Online Distance Learning

    One of the purposes of the EC school of nursing requirements for students is having clinical experience. Albeit not all the extraneous stuff taught in nursing schools, but making me better prepared to...

  8. Free college credit!

    Ronnie22 replied to TRIx2's topic in Online Distance Learning

    One other note..you can't copy and past the promo code. I tried that on a previous attempt, then again today. I continued to get "Promo code is invalid." So I decided to just type the code as above,...

  9. GA EC students our story made it on the NEWS!

    Ronnie22 replied to zoeyzoe's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I really like the state BON stating how they are not unsympathetic towards our plight, but they are the ones that initiated the law! Hummm..let me see, let's create a law that cuts nursing students...

  10. GA BON no longer accepting Excelsior education; Speak up Cont. Updates!!

    Ronnie22 replied to zimsaint's topic in Excelsior College

    I would suggest we find out how the BON members get their jobs; appointment, election from Ga. nurses..how? Then we start an effort to stop them from remaining in the positions for another term. After...

  11. Free college credit!

    Ronnie22 replied to TRIx2's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I tried to register for test today and the code above is 'invalid'. The site at Uexcel says they will give free test until they have enough data...i guess they have

  12. Ronny...any news?

    Ronnie22 replied to KellyCCRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Clinicals are the major point the GBON is stuck on...but all the EC grads I know work in the ER because of their former education as paramedics. We will start work with: PALS, ACLS, CPR, and already...

  13. GA BON no longer accepting Excelsior education; Speak up Cont. Updates!!

    Ronnie22 replied to zimsaint's topic in Excelsior College

    I can't believe GBON will allow nurses with no clinicals to continue to practice in Georgia...considering they didn't receive the PROPER clinical training in the first place...if by their standard EC...

  14. Nsg Diagnosis in CPNE study guide

    Ronnie22 replied to shawnnarae's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I'm not sure about the rest of you guys, but the "Nursing Diagnosis" is what has confused me throughout my EC studies. Pounding into my head a nursing diagnosis is not a real diagnosis. It is not a...

  16. To those who have taken both exams, w/c is harder: NLE or NCLEX?

    Ronnie22 replied to Skates's topic in International Nursing

    Hello all, Like Suzanne says, it is a nationwide test. However, each state has requirements that vary. Some are easier than others, but once you are a nurse in X state, getting a license in other...

  17. All White Uniform Dress Code?!!

    Ronnie22 replied to keludtke's topic in General Nursing

    :nono:Don't be hate-n!It is actually a trend across the nation that started several years ago. When the nurse admin (primarily female) attend their large meetings, it is discussed, and they convince...

  18. CPNE.....proctoring

    Ronnie22 replied to JanWrotenRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    One problem with getting proctors is, EC requires a MS degree to become one. I have a friend that is a educator, has a BSN, but EC will not accept her. Is it lowering the standard to accept BSN...

    Ronnie22 replied to mandee2024's topic in Georgia Nursing

  20. GA Baptist won't accept online courses????

    Ronnie22 replied to opradiva's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Just remember, once you pass the NCLEx, it doesn't matter if you had online classes or not. Almost all schools have online classes now. GB will catch up one day, like they have had to on other...

  21. English Comp. or College Writing

    Ronnie22 replied to Ronnie22's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Thanks for the info. I had spoken to others, and they said they took the College Writing, but had to take another elective...didn't make sense to me if the english only requires 3 credit hours. I have...

  22. English Comp. or College Writing

    Ronnie22 posted a topic in Online Distance Learning

    Just curious which is better. If I take the English comp. it is 6 credit ours, and College writing is 3. I am assuming there is another 3 hr. credit class that must be taken, but when looking on the...

    Ronnie22 replied to FocusRN's topic in Online Distance Learning
