  1. Carson-Newman for FNP Certification

    I know this is late, and I hope I am understanding you correctly. An MSN in informatics is different from an MSN FNP. You would need to complete course work specific for an FNP program (either a post...
  2. Hi there, I know this is late, but just in case others have the same question as your original one. Indiana State University (ISU) has an online post masters FNP certification program. The...
  3. Information! ISU LPN to BSN program

    Find another organization that will allow you to do your clinical rotation and then begin the application for initiating a
  4. Information! ISU LPN to BSN program

    Hi magda81, There are several locations in Florida you can complete your clinical rotations. You can search the ISU website to determine which locations have a contract already in place with the...
  5. I recently completed my BSN degree from ISU, and was excited to receive it in the mail, however, upon opening the package, I found that the degree only had "Bachelor of Science" printed on it with no...
  6. I did this, and the lady told me that is how they are printed. I just checked my email, and the school confirmed that only the type of degree is printed on the diploma and not the major. Thanks for...
  7. Thanks, I'm at ease now knowing that it varies depending on the univerisity.
  8. I've always had just the opposite, show the degree, and no request for a transcript. I do have a certified letter with the school's seal that states I've completed the program. I was just curious to...
  9. Dudette10, Why does this have to be a practice where I work? Why can I not have an opinion like you and the next person? Why can my post not be from experience whereby this has happened to me or...
  10. You sometimes have to be careful in these types of situations. If you do not resign, then there may be consequences down the road (ex: impossible workloads, micromanagement, etc.). Resigning, while...
  11. From a telephone conversation, it does not appear so, however, I am waiting for an email response regarding the matter. I am happy my portfolio does not need four different transcripts for four...
  12. Thank you for your response KelRN215.
  13. I questioned this because when applying for jobs if they requests for a BSN prepared nurse then there are extra steps I would have to take just to prove this. It is not a major issue. I was just...
  14. Thank you, I just wanted to know if this was common. I don't want to read to much into it. I just thought it was a misprint actually as my other degrees does list the majors on them.
  15. Sounds like a hazardous work environment. Resigning gives you the upper hand because when you apply for other jobs, you can list your reason for leaving in a manner that is beneficial to you. For...

    Thank
  18. Working while in nursing program?

    When I was in LPN school, I was a stay at home mother who attended class during the evenings and studied in the late hours. This worked really well for me at the time. By the time I started my RN...
  19. Pearsonvue Trick - Does it Work Every Time? Part 3

    I took the NCLEX-RN on 12/19 in Florida, and I attempted the PVT within an hour of completing the exam. I received the "good" popup. On 12/20, I checked my exam scores on the Board's website and saw...
  20. Patients who "cheat" and drive home

    The department can either change their holding/discharge procedures and/or have the patient sign a document that they will be transported by "xxxx" person and then have that person present and sign...
  21. With 14g needles, BFRs are obtainable at 550ml (AVF/AVG). Needle placement is also another reason that AP values can be elevated. If the AP is high with a CVC, then the positioning of the catheter, a...
  22. I have worked in dialysis for 18 years, first as a tech, then as a nurse, and now I'm an Administrator for a dialysis clinic. SOME techs can be rude, but I have to also add that SOME nurses can be...
  23. Is It Possible An LPN Can Make More Then An RN?

    I have worked in the health care field a long time, and it is not uncommon to have managers who are neither a RN or a LPN. With that said, would you "dismiss" what this person have advised you because...
  24. Is It Possible An LPN Can Make More Then An RN?

    You are coming across as an RN who look down on LPNs. I'm a LPN, and I manage RNs. When I say manage, I mean I have legitimate power to hire or terminate an individual, and if one of my RNs dismiss...
  25. Is It Possible An LPN Can Make More Then An RN?

    In some cases, some LPNs automatically assume that RNs look down on them, which raises tension amongst them. I have seen those who respect and those who don't respect. Some physicians do it as well. I...
