    TheCareerStudent replied to Crystal2756's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Yes the Orientation class is lame! We had to read a boring book and take some quizzes on it. But we also did Med Term which was good to learn in that class and all the LPN's had to read another book...

    There is nothing safe about venting on this website. All you guys do is rip each others heads off. Probably because half of you have no control over your own lives and do not have the guts to stick up...

    TheCareerStudent replied to Spikey9001's topic in General Nursing

    TheCareerStudent replied to shyne77's topic in General Nursing

    Hey I am an MCI RN student. Read some of the posts in the VA Program Discussions, I talk about this a lot. For the RN program it is regionally accredited but only in Candidacy for the NLN, that is why...

    TheCareerStudent replied to Spikey9001's topic in General Nursing

    OP- I see what you are saying. The one thing I find interesting about the replies to you is that nurses keep saying they "come on here to vent" because people on here are "understanding". Yet when...

    TheCareerStudent replied to navytech09's topic in Nursing Career

    And UoP is accepting my degree for the MSN Bridge Program. Since I already have a BS, once I am finished with my ADN I will roll into that program. It is much easier now that they are regionally...

    TheCareerStudent replied to navytech09's topic in Nursing Career

    TheCareerStudent replied to Crystal2756's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Hey my DON just heard back from Dr Tillerson, head of the BSN. The information about an NLN exam is incorrect. You do NOT take an exam to go from our ADN program and then do the BSN. Advisers are...
