As long as you are commited to being good at what you do, that means being a good patient advocate, putting the patients needs first, etc. I do not think there are any bad reasons for wanting to...
I agree, I did not think of it that way. At my hospital it is not mandatory, but many nurses and non-licensed personel where the buttons. Doctors are the worst at hand washing in my (very limited)...
The only thing that makes me weary of reccomending WCU to alot of the people that ask me for advice is the fact that the credits will not transfer over if you needed to bail. That is to say, is you...

Thank god the BSN program I am in has not subjected me to a nursing theory course, I had enough of it in the first two chapters of my fundamentals book. I just wanted to know what you practicing...
In my opinion I do not think it will ever happen, and it would be a shame if it did. There have been several states that have tried to initialize such legislation, but it usually does not pass. Even...
I honestly do not know what courses a ADN takes to graduate as opposed to BSN. If I am not mistaken the clinical hours are identical (at least in CA) for both paths. What I do know is that I had...
What would you find ridiculous about it? It is a proven fact that ADNs make more errors than BSN trained nurses, I was merely defending the ADN level of education by saying that I do not believe it...
