    Agree. The only time I list all my credentials is in the signature file of my work email, and on my business cards (and my resume). Otherwise I'm just plain old Klone,

    Are We "Glorifying" Nurses?

    klone replied to nynursey_'s topic in General Nursing

    For the most part, I agree with the message in the article. I get quickly bored with martyr nurses and Facebook pages with nursing memes. That said, I do occasionally go home and cry about a patient,...

    My pet peeve is when people put all their nursing degrees in their signature. You are supposed to put the HIGHEST degree earned in that field. And it goes BEFORE the RN, not

    How do employers view WGU? Will a BSN from WGU count against me?

    klone replied to tenderfootjoe's topic in Western Governors University

    How cool is that? I also noticed that one of the men on that page is a certified nurse-midwife. :) He was the director of the nurse midwifery program for Ohio

    Denver School of Nursing BSN reviews, please?

    klone replied to purplepixie's topic in School, College Programs

    According to Denver School of Nursing's website, they say "At DSN you'll find that our class sizes are smaller than most universities." http://www.denverschoolofnursing.edu/faqs.php So they're saying...

    Denver School of Nursing BSN reviews, please?

    This is a cut and paste of what I wrote in the Colorado forum when the topic came up: I think the best place to look is the Colorado BoN's website, where they have list of all the pass rates for the...

    Denver School of Nursing BSN reviews, please?

    klone replied to purplepixie's topic in School, College Programs

    It's actually $90,000+ for the BSN program. But it appears that the OP is talking about an aBSN program. Which, I checked... CU is about half the price of DSoN's aBSN tuition. And what you said above...

    Oh, dear. Not okay. At all. I have never and would never put up with someone getting into my face and yelling. I can't say that it's EVER happened to me. When I was a brand new fresh nurse, I had...

    Start over with WGU MSN or transfer credits to a non-RA MSN?

    klone replied to Murse901's topic in Western Governors University
