When I was in nursing school, we were told that it ws not necessary to carry your own insurance. Also, stating that if you have it they just go after you. Your employer carries insurance. This is definitely a case of "darned if you do and darned if you don't." Does "Good Samaritan Act" offer any protection when not on duty?

I am an LPN interested in obtaining my RN. I am presently working full time hours and at the present time can't afford to quit. I was considering obtaining my RN via online. I already have some RN training. I started out in RN program. I only had one junior level course to take, then 4 senior-level courses. My RN schooling was in 1994-1996. I am debating what to do. I need to find out if all my credits would transfer into a program. Also, are RN degrees obtained online recognized by all? I heard that a local hospital does not hire RNs obtained online. Any information on this topic would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
