If your daughter's friend is looking to go to nursing school, why doesn't she jump on ole Google & do research for herself? She's gonna have to start if she's gonna be a nurse. No one bullied you....

Lol! Yeah, I don't plan on getting my BSN for awhile or until I'm forced to. I just don't see how writing a bunch of papers will make me an even better nurse than I already will

Right! If my work wants me to get my BSN they better pay for the school (& everything that goes with it) & then pay me for my time of going to school. Time =

This is exactly what I had to deal with from those two women. But to have it come from an educated nurse is ignorant & even more frustrating. To paint nursing with one large brush is wrong. It is...

Lol. I'm a far way from DFW & I do my research. If I was concerned *at all* for my future, I would be going straight to a BSN program. But I don't have the funds nor the time to go straight to a...

I think there is *one* here in Texas. But it is nowhere close to me, which saddens me because I would apply in a heartbeat if it was. I just don't understand what hospitals are thinking shutting down...
But why must she post a screen shot of possible nurses from Reddit (I wouldn't trust if they are really nurses, especially since one had the n-word following his screen name)? I don't see how that...

I wish diploma programs were still around. I don't see anything wrong with them & they turn out such great nurses. I'm glad to hear that this has been said for such a long time. I thought I was...
You have to check with your BON. Since it has been so long they may require more than just a refresher course. I know with the TX BON you have to go back to school after a certain period of

I have an easier time explaining things to my 3 year old than I did to two grown adults. I guess what I found insulting at all was that they didn't believe me when I have been a nurse for 7
I didn't read it that way since she came back with a screen cap from a Reddit forum trying to show us our opinions were wrong because people on Reddit didn't like the bumper
Apparently we are all wrong because "nurses" on a Reddit forum said they didn't like it. OP, if you come back, did you actually post that picture on Reddit or did you find it there? What did other...
[ ??? What is the point of this? Are these lay people or healthcare personnel? You took a screen cap of a reddit forum but no clear title of that forum so we don't know what the posters professions...

Woman going to nursing school told me she heard about it way back in 1999. I asked her, has anything changed? She told me no. I said, it also goes back farther than 1999. If nothing has changed...

Well there are associate MA programs, I don't understand why & it seems like a waste of money. But education is a business so anything to reel people in & take their money, right?
