  1. Hospitals Firing Seasoned Nurses: Nurses FIGHT Back!

    avengingspirit1 replied to allnurses's topic in General Nursing

    No need to slit your wrists. First of all, 62 is by no means old by today's standards. One of the nurses who graduated a year ahead of me in 2003 was 63 and started working on a med/surg floor right...

  2. Hospitals Firing Seasoned Nurses: Nurses FIGHT Back!

    avengingspirit1 replied to allnurses's topic in General Nursing

    What government-induced fantasy-land are you living in. Premium increases were between 20% - 40% for 2015. They're expected to increase to least another 20% for 2015. You and many others won't be...

  3. Hospitals Firing Seasoned Nurses: Nurses FIGHT Back!

    avengingspirit1 replied to allnurses's topic in General Nursing

    NurseDiane: There are at least three things I will make the general public aware of before I am finished: 1. BSNs, Diploma RNs and Associate Degree RNs are are equally prepared as registered nurses to...

  4. Hospitals Firing Seasoned Nurses: Nurses FIGHT Back!

    avengingspirit1 replied to allnurses's topic in General Nursing

    Hi NurseDiane: Online programs are sprouting up all over the place (just like crabgrass and weeds) because the profit margins are very high. With no classrooms to maintain; there's no electricity,...

  5. Hospitals Firing Seasoned Nurses: Nurses FIGHT Back!

    avengingspirit1 replied to allnurses's topic in General Nursing

    NurseDiane: Your experience in the nursing field and overall wisdom come through. Everything you posted was the God's-honest truth. I just finished paying off my student loan for my three year...

  6. Hospitals Firing Seasoned Nurses: Nurses FIGHT Back!

    avengingspirit1 replied to allnurses's topic in General Nursing

    Your own comment was probably the stupidest thing you ever wrote and read. And judging from the way it looks, I'm sure you've had many stupid comments as runner-ups. "The ANA endorsed President...

  7. Hospitals Firing Seasoned Nurses: Nurses FIGHT Back!

    avengingspirit1 replied to allnurses's topic in General Nursing

    You're spot on. You can also thank all the sanctimonious jackasses we have for nursing leaders who supported the ACA when even those (all Obama supporters) who pushed the bill through to become law...

  8. Hospitals Firing Seasoned Nurses: Nurses FIGHT Back!

    avengingspirit1 replied to allnurses's topic in General Nursing

    Just one more note to add. I am putting the finishing touches on an article I plan to send to the news media in my area as well as outlets such as CNN and fox news about what hospitals, especially...

  9. Hospitals Firing Seasoned Nurses: Nurses FIGHT Back!

    avengingspirit1 replied to allnurses's topic in General Nursing

    It is already coming back to bite them in the ***. Just as I said four years ago; with hospitals trying to force out the most skilled and experienced nurses (many of whom are graduates of associate's...

  10. Is the RN--->BSN push a clever way to get older nurses out of the way

    avengingspirit1 replied to Nola009's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Again, what a bunch of mindless robots some nurses have become. The BSN push is about money period! They do not care about you, elevating the profession, patient care or any other bits of phony...

  11. Is the RN--->BSN push a clever way to get older nurses out of the way

    avengingspirit1 replied to Nola009's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    All fine and good, but as I stated in my previous posts, this is not about elevating the profession. This is about elevating the revenue of the institutions and people that gain from coercing nurses...

  12. Is the RN--->BSN push a clever way to get older nurses out of the way

    avengingspirit1 replied to Nola009's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    So true. In my previous post on the last page, I never meant to imply that a new young nurse with a large student loan debt would intentionally provide less ethical care. What I am saying that a...

  13. Is the RN--->BSN push a clever way to get older nurses out of the way

    avengingspirit1 replied to Nola009's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Sorry, the line should read; If providers fear loss of reimbursements, it is highly unlikely they will consider adding to their

  14. Is the RN--->BSN push a clever way to get older nurses out of the way

    avengingspirit1 replied to Nola009's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Aside from the already made cuts to medicare; with more likely to come, there is another major factor that will shortly influence the hiring of nurses as well as all other healthcare practitioners....

  15. Is the RN--->BSN push a clever way to get older nurses out of the way

    avengingspirit1 replied to Nola009's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    And everything I said is true, true. The BSN push is purely money-driven with many entities that stand to benefit. Nursing programs of all levels have changed their programs over the years to keep...

  16. Is the RN--->BSN push a clever way to get older nurses out of the way

    avengingspirit1 replied to Nola009's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    What a bunch of mindless robots some nurses are. All those driving the BSN push are in some way affiliated with academia. These people figured out that in most healthcare facilities, nurses make up...

  17. My personal ADN vs BSN debate in Las Vegas

    avengingspirit1 replied to moneyline702's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Make no mistake about it, the BSN push is purely money driven. Take a look at who's driving the BSN push and who they are affiliated with. Also the following statement may give another clue as to...

  18. ADN's being pushed out

    avengingspirit1 replied to MSN Student's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I cited my sources previously but because they didn't fit into you narrative, you conveniently forgot them. Just like you conveniently make no mention of the current 2015 NCLEX pass rates being...

  19. ADN's being pushed out

    avengingspirit1 replied to MSN Student's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    The truth is you could make that choice of going for either one of those doctorates because you knew you were having your tuition partially or mostly reimbursed. You say you don't work as a nurse,...

  20. ADN's being pushed out

    avengingspirit1 replied to MSN Student's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Dear BostonFNP: While I don't agree with you and believe with all my heart believe that all the so-called experts driving the BSN push are backed by the AACN, ANA, ANCC, state nurses associations as...

  21. ADN's being pushed out

    avengingspirit1 replied to MSN Student's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    For the last two years I've been going back and forth with you. I have sent you websites along with other forms of proof that the BSN push is purely money driven. You continuously brush them off...

  22. ADN's being pushed out

    avengingspirit1 replied to MSN Student's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    A little reading comprehension here: I said as soon as it's sent to me I will post it. You've been trumpeting this study for the last 3 years. The only information you've ever offered was that...

  23. ADN's being pushed out

    avengingspirit1 replied to MSN Student's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    The die-hard cheerleaders for Aiken remind me of the people on the Titanic who were denying the ship was sinking as the water came up to their necks. My above post gives the facts of the Aiken study....

  24. ADN's being pushed out

    avengingspirit1 replied to MSN Student's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I think now we should officially change the name of the Institute of Medicine to the Idiots of Medicine. We now know that they based their recommendation for 80% of RNS to have a minimum of a BSN by...

  25. Hospitals Firing Seasoned Nurses: Nurses FIGHT Back!

    avengingspirit1 replied to allnurses's topic in General Nursing

    You're right. We spend too much time venting and arguing with each other on the internet. I made a promise that I was going to keep pushing until I get the word out to the general public about what is...
