  1. Should BSNs be paid more?

    CrazyPremed replied to edcampbe's topic in General Nursing

    I think that it depends on the state that a person is in. Where I am, there is a strong CC RN program, and many private schools are creating new programs. As long as there is a shortage of nurses,...

    CrazyPremed replied to CrazyPremed's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Thanks for the reply, guys. I debating whether or not I should take a PCT course before nursing school. This info really helps!

    Hey folks, I will start Block I this winter (hopefully), and was wondering - what skills are learned during Block I here in AZ? Catheters, EKG's, what else? Also, when are IV starts covered, in Block...

  4. Should BSNs be paid more?

    CrazyPremed replied to edcampbe's topic in General Nursing

    Hello folks. IMHO, many BSN and ADN nurses are paid the same because they perform the same job - that of an RN. Although BSN's have taken a route that required (in most cases) more education than is...

    Did you take Patho online? How did you like it? I'm doing Micro online now and I'm doing fairly well. Do you recommend Patho online, or in person? Thanks.

    CrazyPremed replied to Curious1alwys's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Hello folks, I am taking Micro (BIO 205) online through Rio Salado right now (had a midterm last week). I have a BS in Exercise Physiology, and - so far - Micro has been a review of some of my...

  8. Banner Health to lay off 145 from Valley hospitals

    CrazyPremed replied to Kabin's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I work for Banner Health as a phlebotomist. The majority of the layoffs were administrative personnel, but some of the technical positions have been 'frozen'. I think that that a mistake was made by a...

  9. Do you ever think about going to medical school?

    CrazyPremed replied to Michelle123's topic in General Nursing

    Going to medical school has always been my plan. I've worked in hospitals for a few years now and I am in love with the idea of going to medical school. I have decided, though, to take a two-year...

  10. Skills to learn in nursing school?

    CrazyPremed posted a topic in General Nursing

    Hello all, I'll be starting an LPN program in December. I know that we will learn many general skills, but I had a question. Are there any skills that you wished you learned/mastered while in school?...
