  2. Is there any truth to this?

    not.done.yet, would the doctors you work with not order blood cultures for signs/symptoms of possible sepsis even if the patient's temperature was not significantly elevated, as it may not be in...
  3. Is there any truth to this?

    In order not to miss a patient who had sepsis or an infection that needs to be treated, I personally would evaluate a patient telling me they are feverish at xyz temp based on their baseline...
  4. I would say be proud of your own accomplishments in becoming an LPN. LPN's fulfill an important role as nurses. RN's have more education and training, and have their own role, but that does not...
  5. Any ADN-BSN programs without ridiculous papers?

    BostonFNP, I apologize if I was unclear in my post. My post was intended to point out that data and statistics can certainly be biased in research studies, although competent and ethical researchers...
  6. Any ADN-BSN programs without ridiculous papers?

    In regard to the prominent study I believe you are referring to, a nurse on this forum posted some time ago that he/she was part of a panel for his/her state that reviewed the study and rejected the...
  7. Any ADN-BSN programs without ridiculous papers?

    The above is your own post where you complained about the quality of your program, i.e. "... little nursing related content ...,"; "... absolutely no content related to my area of nursing."; "The...
  8. Any ADN-BSN programs without ridiculous papers?

    PMFB-RN, there is no evidence there is a problem with the quality of BSN programs in general, and several people on this thread have spoken out in support of the quality of the ADN-BSN/BSN programs...
  9. Any ADN-BSN programs without ridiculous papers?

    PMFB-RN, you said the assessment class you took didn't teach you anything you hadn't learned on the job or in a non-college class, although it did teach you new assessments not covered in your ADN...
  10. Any ADN-BSN programs without ridiculous papers?

    Again, some people are generalizing the RN-BSN health assessment course as covering the same material in the same depth as ADN programs. I took an advanced health assessment course in my RN-BSN...

  13. Any ADN-BSN programs without ridiculous papers?

  15. Falsifying any patient data, whether assessment, medications or treatments can have very serious consequences for the patient, and is illegal, unethical, and indefensible, as samadams8 stated above....
  16. I'd say you did a very poor job of making your
  17. I downloaded the second and seventh articles you referenced as they relate to primary care. The second article is 11 years old and the seventh is 13 years old. Have you read them? Both studies...
  18. Please provide the links to those 26 studies and to the evidence that supports your assertions about clinical outcomes, or reference the source of your
  19. Please. Of course there is a great difference in the level of education and training medical doctors receive, which translates in to their ability to provide a much higher level of care than advance...
  20. Those restrictions are there for a good reason. There is a good reason doctors spend many years training to be doctors, and all those years of education and training add up to the ability to provide...

    You state on one hand that your ADN program didn't require an english comprehension class, and how easily one can obtain an MSN without ever taking a single semester of english comprehension, and in...
  22. Any ADN-BSN programs without ridiculous papers?

    If those nurses who are complaining about their education NOT being advanced, despite being in degree programs, had determined to choose a quality program and investigated the quality of the program...
  23. Any ADN-BSN programs without ridiculous papers?

    On another thread someone with an RN who has a BS in another subject is incensed that although he/she has not completed all the nursing coursework for a BSN the nursing schools require the nursing...
  24. Any ADN-BSN programs without ridiculous papers?

    I don't know about the physical assessment class your program requires, but the school I attended required a class in 'advanced physical assessment' for bridge students that really did teach good...
  25. Any ADN-BSN programs without ridiculous papers?

    I attended a state university for my ADN-BSN approx 16 years ago. We were required to write papers of the length you describe or complete similar length assignments for virtually all the classes....
