  11. Can anyone offer insight to a distressed RN?

    I think even disjointed, constantly changing clinical monitoring is preferable to finding your own, completely unvetted clinical preceptor. I'm sure in many cases, it's basically the blind leading the...
  12. positive advice about Walden University NP program

    I just want to point out the fact that Walden has FOUR HUNDRED current students is proof enough that it is a diploma mill. Considering how recent the school is, it shows they admit anyone with a pulse...

  20. Can anyone offer insight to a distressed RN?

    I think it's ridiculous that some posters on this board seem to think they are the only ones capable of classifying what is fluff and what isn't. I'm sorry, but when the course description says it's a...
