I'm an RN looking to complete my BSN.. In the shortest amount of time.

I'm interested in applying to an online BSN program. And thoughts about any schools? the best ones? I'm looking to complete my BSN as accelerated as possible. Any feedback is appreciated!

I'm interested in applying here to do their BSN program. And thoughts about this program? I'm looking to complete my BSN as accelerated as possible. Is this a good program?

It's a class discussion.. I'm just the lead who presents the scenario to the class and gives suggestions.

Priority thing to do would be to get the patients that are to be discharged or transferred out of there to make room for new patients... Next I would check on my chest tubes..

Well I figured the first thing I would do is call staffing to replace the RN that called in sick. Obviously the tpn/lipids need to be hung by the RN.. Lpns can do things like dressing changes and ng suctioning... Pre and post op teaching.. Discharge teaching all need to be done by the RN... It's not like I could assign any 1 patient to the LPN bc there isn't one patient that can be cared for without an RN... Ambulation and transferring can be done by the aids...

I'm not asking for you to do my homework. If you do not want to give ideas, then don't.

I am sorry, I have no idea why the post came out like that. Hopefully you can still understand.

I am presenting this tomorrow in class... It is a student lead discussion. I have been going back and forth with my answers to this assignment and i was just hoping to get some different point of views that maybe i could add to the discussion. Any feedback would be great!

I am doing a PowerPoint presentation on ways I could come up with to promote patient safety and reduce medical mistakes... What are some ways I could suggest to improve on medical mistakes during emergency surgery. I have never worked in the OR or anywhere emergency so in the aspect I really have not idea what to say about it.
