LPNTORN704

Ok didnt know that because here they do the same thing although the adn is going back for their bsn.my friend is an adn in an operating room with bsn nurses.

Honestly, I think Rn's should be payed as much as doctors. I cant count how many times the RN was the brains of the operations especially when doctors make errors. The rn does the hands on,the paper work,and over see patients as well as other nurses .Anyone else feel the same?

Thank you so much for the explanation. Here in nc they have a diploma rn program one actually they got rid of majority of them.

Thank you soooooo sooo much .This really broke it down for me.Makes sense now.

Yes, where I'm at they all have the same skill and do the same jobs. I'm not sure how it is where you live

Now you read ???

No offense but like I said I'm right.now read this comprehensive paragraph smart ? Why is this change in minimum educational requirements for registered professional nurses an important step in nursing education and the profession? The impetus for this change in minimum educational requirements for registered professional nurses is due in part to the recognition of the increasing complexity of the American health care system. Rapidly expanding technology and procedures place greater demands on nursing competencies. Several recent research studies demonstrate the added value of additional education in relation to improved patient outcomes. The American Association of Colleges of Nursing found that workplaces with baccalaureate-prepared nurses have lower patient mortality rates, lower failure-to-rescue rates and higher proficiency in diagnoses and evaluating nursing interventions. Another study demonstrated that each 10 percent increase in the number of baccalaureate-prepared nurses in the workplace results in a 5 percent decrease in surgical patient deaths.

No. The law recognizes the need for and value of the multiple educational paths and entry points into the profession http://nursing.buffalo.edu/news-events/nurses-report.host.html/content/shared/nursing/articles/nurses-report/posts/bsn-in-10.detail.html

Girl bye go pass meds please

A new grad cant negotiate.cma doesnt count as nursing experience.

The religious part would be an issue

I agree she was very unprofessional and that wasnt a joke .That patient could be suffering from depression and her saying that doesnt make things any better.

An RN is an RN..An RN with an associates does the same exact thing and has the same skills as an RN with a BSN.

So your school doesnt prep you for nclex?

Thank you, I read it but all it mentions is rn.i know why but I dont see the point considering an rn an a bsn do the exact same thing and in most places get the same pay.just sounds to me like they just want an excuse to drop an extra load on nurses as far as patients and responsibility. I hope they have plans of paying for tuition and providing a large hourly wage

Have you heard of the bsn in 10?if not then that means I'd have to post an article for those who dont know.But there is a new law in effect to where if you are an rn in ny you need to have your bsn in 10 years. I heard other states are catching on but nothing has been mentioned as to if this will have affect on lpn
