  1. American Sentinel University it is!

    SweettartRN posted a topic in Online Distance Learning

    So I received my acceptance letter, and total, I will be out about $12000 for my BSN through them. I feel that this will be the best route for me, and is by far a cheaper route. On top of that, I...

  2. Mass Hysteria- FLU!

    SweettartRN replied to MrsK_Nurse's topic in School

    We have had 4 positives in the last 48

  3. The ANA is worthless, looks down on floor nurses, don't join!

    SweettartRN replied to DannyBoy8's topic in General Nursing

    Has no one bothered to read their Glassdoor reviews? Bullying, hatefulness, unethical, etc. It strikes me as odd that we still look to the ANA to guide our "code of ethics" as professional nurses,...

  4. I just saw this on NURSYS

    SweettartRN posted a topic in Michigan Nursing

    I just saw this statement on NURSYS. If anyone is applying for endorsement, good luck. NCSBN Nursys and the Michigan Licensing and Regulatory Agency (LARA) are actively working on getting Michigan...

  5. Renewing my license with the new MiPlus

    SweettartRN replied to tsm007's topic in Michigan Nursing

    What an absolute nightmare of a system. I finally was able to renew my license, but not without serious issues. I renewed my license back in February. I had to sign up for a new account. I did this...

  6. Those studying for the CPNE- here's a huge tip

    SweettartRN posted a topic in Excelsior College

    I paid the $50 to have the study guide printed and put on paper. If you do NOTHING else, print pages 411-491. Everything that you need to pass is on these pages. These are the actual check off...

  7. Kaplan Post MSN FNP

    SweettartRN posted a topic in School, College Programs

    Does anyone know if this is accredited or not? They do not say on their website if their programs are accredited and I keep getting the run around from the admissions guy I have been working with....

  8. Unsafe work environment

    SweettartRN posted a topic in General Nursing

    How would you handle being in a dangerous or unsafe work environment? The facility that I work at was set up to be a rehab facility and has since been transitioning to a halfway house for parolees....

  9. The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    SweettartRN replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    I am admittedly, late to this show, however, much of this can be cleared up by looking at a flu vaccine insert. I give you this year's Flulaval insert:...

  10. Touro University DNP Project Mentor

    SweettartRN posted a topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    Hi all, I am at my wit's end here. I am at Touro University and am having a heck of a time finding a project mentor to supervise my Capstone. Does anyone have any suggestions for finding a proper...

  11. Touro University Nevada

    SweettartRN replied to rxgray's topic in School, College Programs

    I will also be joining the March cohort. I was looking at this program or Chatham, but Touro seemed like a better program to me, so I am choosing Touro. It seems like a good program, and the fact...

  12. I NEED HELP!!! College Network is taking money!

    SweettartRN replied to sassylvn80's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I helped a friend file an attorney general complaint against the College Network (I believe in Indiana) and within 3 weeks she was let out of her contract, and given a full refund. YMMV, but it's...

  13. EXELSIOR College - Lawsuit

    SweettartRN replied to robyncae's topic in Excelsior College

    I just read through a half dozen or so articles about the lawsuit. It sounds like bunk to me. I am an a proud Excelsior grad, and if it hadn't been for the rigors of the program, I would not be...

  14. Kaplan University - Adult Geriatric Nurse Practitioner

    SweettartRN replied to nursebeth2000's topic in Post Graduate Students

    No they are 10 week courses. Also, if you already have your MSN you will be required to re-take a Capstone course. My experiene with Kaplan has been extremely negative thus far. I only have three...

  15. Anyone attending Kaplan or Walden University?

    SweettartRN replied to tadahh99's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Stay the hell away from Kaplan. You can PM me for more

  16. Study: Doctors don't wash hands properly 40% of the time

    SweettartRN replied to herring_RN's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    But let's force the flu vaccine on people because that's going to make them wash their hands. *rolling my

  17. Why do you visit allnurses.com?

    SweettartRN replied to Joe V's topic in Nursing Humor

    I don't visit near as often as I used to. It seems if you have a mind, think outside of the box, then you are treated as if you are a pariah rather than a lemming willing to follow everyone over the...

  18. WGU BSN Grads: Any problems getting into a FNP program?

    SweettartRN replied to jazzyjulz's topic in Western Governors University

    Not a bit. I graduated in October with my MSN, and started post MSN FNP at SCJCME last week!

  19. Two VERY low ball job offers in the last month...(management and leadership!)

    SweettartRN posted a topic in Nurse Management

    Ok, a little background. I have my background in management which is what I did before I became a nurse. I now have five years nursing experience as well as my ASN, BSN, and my MSN. I have been...

    SweettartRN replied to paradiseboundRN's topic in Western Governors University

    I finished by BSN in 3 months and 7 days. It's

  22. Why nurses treat nurses so badly.

    SweettartRN replied to SuzieVN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    One only needs to see some of the comments left here for fellow nurses to begin analyzing that one. Hormones? Plenty. Ingorance? Plenty. Stress? Plenty. Forgetting that we haven't walked in the other...

  23. Two VERY low ball job offers in the last month...(management and leadership!)

    SweettartRN replied to SweettartRN's topic in Nurse Management

    I meant no disrespect to any ADN nurse. That's where I started, and worked my way up from. I believe that an education should be valued and taken into consideration, forgive me if that offends those...

  24. Home Health-The good, The bad, and I'm getting out.

    SweettartRN replied to lsvalliant's topic in Home Health

    I do homecare also and on my days off, after hours, and on weekends, the phone is shut off. Period. And I don't take calls from my personal phone from

    SweettartRN replied to Hoosiernurse's topic in Nursing Career

    It's not true at all actually. I don't know where that poster got his/her information. I have had many part time jobs that I was working on the side that I never list on my
