  2. EC RN-BSN? Yes or no?

    happydrunkcat posted a topic in Excelsior College

    I just got my RN and now I'm looking at RN-BSN options. I really liked the RN program at EC, but I've noticed that many of EC students went elsewhere for BSN. What is the main reason for doing that?...

    happydrunkcat replied to Mimi2BNP's topic in Florida Nursing

    New grad RN starts at about $22/hr. LPN - not sure, I think about $17/hr. There almost no jobs at the hospitals for LPN. Only long-term facilities and rehabs. I know Baptist were hiring a couple of...

    happydrunkcat replied to BostonNurse2876's topic in Online Distance Learning

    happydrunkcat replied to Lockcuff's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Ok. One more time. In plain English. CN IS NOT A SCHOOL. It does not grant you a degree. It will give you study guides. And you will pay what is it now? $5000? You can collect a pretty good library...
