    Is it worth it?

    Please do a search on the benefits of a BSN. Is it mandatory at this time? No. Could it be heading that way in the future (10 years+)? Probably. Should you get the BSN? If you can, then

    To the original poster, thank you for understanding that your overall job is to assist the patient and thank you for being a helpful coworker. Isn't it sad that your coworker was so surprised that...

    Ideals vs Reality for the Aspiring Nurse

    I'm not a nurse so I can't "answer" your post. However, as an aspiring nurse I have often wondered the same thing. I can tell you, the more I've worked in health care settings, the more "hardened"...

    Colleges drop RN_BSN programs

    UM's program is changing, they are no longer having a program that "ends" at MSN...it would be a BSN-DNP program. I believe that Wayne still has their program, they are just not accepting...

    Flirting at working????

    Ugh. The profession of nursing already has the "sexy" stereotype. And then there are nurses that readily admit to flirting because it makes their lives easier because doc's aren't as mad at 2 a.m...

    "Fired for NO Reason"

    Okay, granted I haven't read this entire tread. Going off the original OP's post, however, I have a few comments: I agree that new grads don't always "know it all" but do we have to fire everyone...
