  1. ADN's being pushed out

    Hi rnforforty I want to say first that I am sorry about your husband. Also, that if I or anyone I cared about were a patient, I'll take a nurse like you with your 40 years of blood and guts...
  2. ADN's being pushed out

    We all know that Magnet Status is nothing more than a money-making scheme created by the ANA to manipulate the uninformed general public into feeling good about one hospital versus another. Hospitals...
  3. ADN's being pushed out

    I was originally accepted into a BSN program. But since I already had a Bachelor's Degree and the BSN cost more than 3X the tuition at the 3yr straight the summer hospital-based program, I know I...
  4. ADN's being pushed out

    You may call it the new normal; I call it idiocy. Take a look at some more new normals: - Help the 15% uninsured by taking the 85% who are insured and happy with their plans, make them uninsured,...
  5. ADN's being pushed out

    P.S. I'll end by saying (and yes this is a biased statement which also happens to be true) that anyone who thinks an extra piece of paper trumps experience and know-how is an absolute idiot. And...
  6. ADN's being pushed out

    I said phrases like them; not those exact phrases. Think outside the box man. The source is in the study, as in the source of funding. My source is a former house speaker. You may not work in...
  7. ADN's being pushed out

    There was nothing scientific about the Aiken study. In studying it again, I couldn't even count how many many statements such as; "It was later verified" and "Empirical work has demonstrated" were...
  8. ADN's being pushed out

    Again, I posted those sites that refuted the Aiken propaganda over a year ago in a response to one of your posts. Go through your posts and you should find them. That entire body of research you...
  9. ADN's being pushed out

    If you really believe that people working for academia are not posting on this site and that nursing policy should be changed based on one study that was proven to be flawed (I posted that information...
  10. ADN's being pushed out

    I understand but I've been told by managers at a couple of major healthcare systems in my area that the consolidations are expected to increase exponentially as a result of declining reimbursements...
  11. ADN's being pushed out

    If I give up the name of the news person and station I talked too, then I'd be giving my identity away: which I get the idea is what you want. When you start giving up some of your details on this...
  12. ADN's being pushed out

    What I meant that universities have people who are paid to do research and come up with conclusions to support a certain point of view. I know it for a fact as I've spoke to people in the university...
  13. ADN's being pushed out

    People are afraid of losing their jobs in this economy. I can't use their names for the same reasons you and everyone else on this site maintains anonymity. For over a year now, I've asked you to...

  15. ADN's being pushed out

    Sorry for the typo people. Sometimes I write these posts late at night. This is the way it was supposed to

  17. ADN's being pushed out

    Hi sjpns12 The push to have nurses run back to school is purely money driven and is being perpetuated solely by those people and institutions who will see their revenue increase by having nurses like...
  18. Brandy, I've been told the same stories by many other nurses who all agree that "Magnet Status" is nothing more than a money-making scheme for the ANA and does nothing for the floor nurse or the...
  19. ADN's being pushed out

    Addendum: Yes, I may hit the c key instead of the a key once in a while. I don't claim to be the best typist. But: Fact: Every individual driving the BSN push is in some way affiliated with a...
  20. ADN's being pushed out

    By your "logic" then all of what you wrote can be considered hearsay. Sorry to break it to you, much goes on that is not covered in the media or needs a million dollar funded research to be true....
  21. ADN's being pushed out

    You should know that for legal reasons, I can't mention the names of people or the
  22. ADN's being pushed out

    Again; every bit of your so-called evidence came only from people and organizations committed to BSN entry. The academic "you must have the problem" ploy was tried on me at a major university (not my...
  23. ADN's being pushed out

    A typical ploy in academia is that if you disagree with them, then you're the one that must have a problem. It's a defense they use all the time. I've been through it with those in academia before...
  24. ADN's being pushed out

    Every study done that feebly tries to perpetuate the fallacy that BSN nurses provide better patient care and hospitals that are staffed with more BSN nurses have better patient outcomes serve one...
  25. ADN's being pushed out

    Ahh, you mean friend and supporter-reviewed quantitative research. As in the same people who would give her research a thumbs-up if it concluded the earth was really flat. No politics go on in the...
