  1. Which road to take? LPN or RN?

    mcorrao77 replied to kbean04's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I totally agree with you about being a CNA first. I am so glad that I was a CNA for a year before I decided to go back to school to get my BSN. I feel that now I know what's it like from their aspect....

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

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

    I, too, want to work by the bedside. Not all BSNs want management positions. Plus, I don't consider $65,000 to $70,000 "peanuts." In the hospitals where I'm applying that's what the BSN nurse will...

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

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

    That's too bad that you would change the line of work you're in because you don't want your BSN. BUT! The majority of health care facilities will pay for you to go back to school to further your...

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

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

    It seems to me that the nurses who are at a lower level of learning are against the move to BSN which is something I don't understand! Why wouldn't you want to further your education in your desired...

    I think you should go for the RN, BS in Nursing. I'm in an accelerated program in New York where I will have my BS in Nursing within one year. I don't know why anyone would not want to further their...

    mcorrao77 posted a topic in New York Nursing

    Hi, I'm wondering if anyone can give me some information about getting a job in plastic & reconstructive surgery. I will be graduating from an accelerated program this August and I want to work...

  7. Plastic & Reconstructive Surgical Nursing HELP!

    mcorrao77 replied to mcorrao77's topic in New York Nursing

    Thanks for the input. What area of nursing should I look into first? Maybe operating

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

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

    AD nurses go to school 2 years less than the BSN. In the accelerated course level, the student must have all the prereqs completed before she/he can begin the program. For my program, I took 18...

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

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

    I will have my BSN degree this summer. I am in an accelerated program and will complete it within one year. However, I looked into AD programs too and it did not make sense for me to go 2 yrs when I...
