1. Nyc question

   mcorrao77 replied to joe134's topic in New York Nursing

   I don't think that they are requiring that you have a BSN, I think that they 'prefer' it. I think that if you have an AD with experience the hospital will also hire you. If they only hire BSN prepared...

3. Graduate nurse of 4-year BS program

   mcorrao77 replied to TRYtryAGAIN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

   I also have a BSN and I highly recommend Kaplan's Qbank. It's a little pricey at $300, but it's well worth it. It keeps track of what questions you answer correctly and incorrectly and gives you a...

5. help! Are surgical techs and RNs the same??

   mcorrao77 replied to BernadetteRNBSN's topic in Operating Room

   Okay, this may be a stupid question, but I have to ask. Does a RNFA act in the same role as the scrub or circulating nurse? What is the difference with a RNFA? I thought, I could be way off base, that...

   mcorrao77 replied to mcorrao77's topic in Operating Room

   Thanks for understanding caffeinatedstudent. I actually got my last rotation for my senior clinicals in the OR. Hopefully, it will give me a better understanding of the whole process. I graduate Aug....

7. sick of ADN vs BSN! like most of us have a choice anyway!

   mcorrao77 replied to okie2's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

   I am not saying to take out loans to help your credit. That's ridiculous. What I am saying is that it doesn't hinder your credit rating. And still nobody answers the question as to why does every...

8. sick of ADN vs BSN! like most of us have a choice anyway!

   mcorrao77 replied to okie2's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

   The ADN program does not prepare student nurses better than the BSN level. How can you say having less education would be more beneficial than having more? Every other major in college is a BS or BA....

9. What are the pros of getting your BSN?

   mcorrao77 replied to browsing's topic in General Students

   EXACTLY!! I am so sick of people saying that the BSN student does not know how to perform nursing skills. I would rather take Patho I & II, pharm, research classes, leadership classes, and a whole...

    I don't know what kind of careplan that you are working on, but here is a list of some nursing theorists: Erickson, Tomlin, & Swain: Model & Role Model Newman, M.: Expanding Consciousness...

11. sick of ADN vs BSN! like most of us have a choice anyway!

    mcorrao77 replied to okie2's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I totally agree. We are the only profession that has so many entry levels. Why is that? I feel that every other person in the health care setting needs at least a BS, why should the nurse be any...

    mcorrao77 replied to okie2's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Hi! I will be graduating from a BSN program this August and it only took me ONE year to get my BSN (but it was an accelerated program).... much, much cheaper than going to my local community college...

    Well

14. I Need Advice. May Lose Rn License!!

    mcorrao77 replied to Shell5's topic in Legal

    However, the CNA was hired as a CNA, not a GPN or GVN. This is different. The nurse should know what she can delegate and what she can't. Bottom

15. Are there any nures/students with another degree
