  1. Is it true? BS + RN does not = BSN?

    chestrockwell replied to Cathylady's topic in General Nursing

    What in the world is everyone confused about here? Lets break it down: "BSN"- A Bachelor of Science degree with a major in nursing. Its not a license, not a title. "BSN" is just some weird...

  3. Is it true that a BSN will be mandatory soon?

    chestrockwell replied to szccdw's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    You might want to associate with different people if that's the respone you get whenever you complain about that. Are they suggesting that an extra 2 years of theory and research classes will then...

  4. Is it true that a BSN will be mandatory soon?

    chestrockwell replied to szccdw's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    No offense, but I think you are overthinking this issue of respect. Why are you so concerned that someone respect your education? Who has told you they think that nursing education is easy and why...

  5. Is it true that a BSN will be mandatory soon?

    chestrockwell replied to szccdw's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

  6. Is it true that a BSN will be mandatory soon?

    chestrockwell replied to szccdw's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    personally, I think all nurses should have a bachelors degree at some point. It makes you a more well rounded person. But I disagree that a BSN is necessary as other degrees and majors provide enough...

  9. Is it true that a BSN will be mandatory soon?

    chestrockwell replied to szccdw's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Do you think that OT's and PT's and pharmacists have a lot of work place control? You make it seem like they get all the respect in the world and that nurses get none. I don't know anyone that says "...

  10. Is it true that a BSN will be mandatory soon?

    chestrockwell replied to szccdw's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    chestrockwell replied to Jesskanurse's topic in General Nursing

    Let me see if I understand. You maintain a personal friendship with a physician that sleeps with multiple sales reps who call on him, but have no respect for the sales reps? I think you should have...

    chestrockwell replied to Jennyfur1234's topic in New York Nursing

  22. Is it true that a BSN will be mandatory soon?

    chestrockwell replied to szccdw's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    The clinical courses are all the same. Why should someone who already spent 4 hard years earning a Bachelors have to go back for a BSN? That's absolutely ridiculous. The previously earned Bachelor's...
