  2. Diploma nurses are worthless?!

    I just love it how when anyone questions those who live in the fantasy world of academia, they automatically use the word conspiracy. Considering nursing as well as physician education is much...
  3. Diploma nurses are worthless?!

    It was also the other organizations I mentioned that had a hand in this deceptive mess. The IOM considered the 2003 heavily when making its recommendation. Look at who directed the Carnegie...
  4. Diploma nurses are worthless?!

    Every study I've seen either piggy-backed or referred to the original so-called study. People like myself have to work; whereas the people spouting this BSN-makes-for-a-better-nurse nonsense are...
  5. Diploma nurses are worthless?!

    Yes, I saw that a few years ago. Proving my point that the BSN push was being backed, supported and funded by the very people, institutions and organizations that benefit by manipulating nurses into...

    What's worthless are self-serving nursing academic elitists who haven't touched a patient since Bill Clinton left office and have been polishing seat cushions ever since with their behinds. Their...

    A good acquaintance of mine died 13 days ago at a local hospital in Phila. They were complaining of severe pain for days and then died of septic shock. No one took the time to explore why the severe...
  8. Hospitals Firing Seasoned Nurses: Nurses FIGHT Back!

    The education of PAs and doctors who are board certified to perform surgery is as different as night and day. They are both educated and licensed to perform completely different functions. You can...

    Couldn't agree
  10. Hospitals Firing Seasoned Nurses: Nurses FIGHT Back!

    Exactly. The July 14, 2013 patient satisfaction scores published in the Phila. Inquirer show that the propaganda our so-called nursing leaders tried to spout about hospitals staffed with more BSN...
  11. Diploma nurses are worthless?!

    My 3 year ADN program included leadership in nursing, research methodology and making presentations on our research before nurses, supervisors and managers. In order to be accredited, nursing...
  12. Diploma nurses are worthless?!

    The facts were published in publications such as Nurse.com. You may go back and look at the quotes from some of these people in 2009 and then see how they changed their tune once there was an outcry....
  13. Diploma nurses are worthless?!

    Sorry, if you're not aware of what's been going on in the last few years in the nursing profession as well as the business of higher education, then there's not much I can do to help you. But I'll...
  14. Diploma nurses are worthless?!

    It is pretty pathetic when the type of program an RN graduated from becomes more important than actually knowing how to do something. My program was a 3 year straight-through the summer diploma...

    One only needs to look up those driving the BSN push and the organizations and institutions they are affiliated
  16. Hospitals Firing Seasoned Nurses: Nurses FIGHT Back!

    Seriously, No one hates BSNs. If you've read any of my other posts, you'll read that I say all nurses have a lot to give and we can all learn from each other. But when I hear of a new diploma...

    Who the hell would have faith in a hospital that would change policy based on one study that was never replicated and carried out, funded and backed by the very people and organizations that stand to...
  18. Hospitals Firing Seasoned Nurses: Nurses FIGHT Back!

    Hi LadyFree28, I am from your neck of the woods. I like your NNU suggestion. Also we should encourage nurses to stop paying dues to the state nurse's association and the ANA until they start...

    Hi fellow nurses, Keep up voicing your opinions strongly, I know for a fact your nursing leaders and state nurse's associations are reading this
  20. Diploma nurses are worthless?!

    I agree they'll keep on trying to push it in the short-term but even now it has lost some of its momentum. Remember it was never about advancing the profession, it was all about increasing revenue...
  21. Hospitals Firing Seasoned Nurses: Nurses FIGHT Back!

    Hi anon456 The station is 1210 talk radio. The host that the nurse called into in was Dom Giordano. If you go to their website, there is a link to email him. You can let him know you are a nurse...

  23. Hospitals Firing Seasoned Nurses: Nurses FIGHT Back!

    Hi anonymous. This topic was just discussed last week by a popular Phila. radio talk show host. A nurse had called in the show and talked about how area hospitals are hiring only nurses with higher...
  24. Diploma nurses are worthless?!

    Hello nurses; haven't commented in a while because I've been busy fighting another piece of idiocy called Obamacare. Which by the way was endorsed by the so-called nursing leaders and because of...
  25. BSN Only Is A Wall Street Scam
