Who is your intended audience that you plan to write for?

Well...A for effort. I hope the fog clears for the OP. Thanks for your response.

Was that an original published complete work? The piece read like it was part of a larger work or an excerpt taken out of context. I'm confused about the purpose of the writing. Did I miss the thesis statement?

According to a policy statement released Nov 17 by the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN), all nurses need to learn the specifics of COVID from the CDC and educate their patients about it accordingly. The nurse's license may de...

Please don't take this as a flippant answer, but, what were you expecting? Can you identify precisely what is upsetting and analyze if the answer(s) are something you can change or grow into with experience or something else?

It's been a while since you posted. What did you find out? I'm interested in the ThriveAP program as well.

Everything is disposable theses days..paper, plastic, styrofoam utensils even nursing staff. The business model clearly puts profit over patients. Since businesses are clear about making money, nurses have left to make money too. Travel nursing pays ...

Where are the independent scientific results to support each of the COVID vaccines... including the Johnson and Johnson vaccine? I don't know where to find them? If the COVID vaccine can be created this quickly, why can't vaccines for other ill...

I was motivated to learn to manage my stress better. I'd already graduated college with an English literature/Art History double major and planned on a journalism career. En route to a fall internship with CBS, I volunteered with a nurse midwife in K...

There is no question COVID 19 created a large death toll in this country and around the world. Historically, vaccines have been helpful to stave off death - like polio to name one only as an example. However, as the OP pointed out, the COVID vac...

The "greatest of all time" was a CNA. Before I started my nursing education, I investigated the profession by working as a CNA. Miss A was my informal "preceptor" to show the ropes as a new CNA. She had been a CNA for 25 years. Her rule of thumb was...

I see you feel devastated by your experience. I urge you to reframe your experience. I encourage you to use your finely tuned analytical nursing skills to walk through, reflect upon your lived experience and look for the hidden gems. The title of yo...

you are more than welcome. I have finished all my classes and I am waiting for the graduation and certification exam!

I took each of those classes one at a time, while I worked full time.

Thank for your post. I just finished my NP Program last week and will be facing the certification exam. I haven't scheduled it yet. Thank you for your encouragement!

Congratulations!! That's fantastic news!

You learn the skills through practice. Best of luck moving forward.

Hi Julie, Congratulations on starting your advanced degree! The effort will pay off for sure. Set yourself up for success. You asked if I could share my experience with Walden's facebook groups. Unfortunately, since I am not on facebook,...

Hi, 1. MDs, PAs and NPs can all be used as preceptors. 2. Clinical placements depend on your NP track of study. Say for example, if you are in the Acute Care track, an ER may be a good opportunity. I am fairly certain there are no OR opport...

Hi Audrey, I hope you find satisfaction and personal fulfillment in your academic endeavors. I know your future patients will be well taken care of.

Hi Nurse Kicker, Congratulations on your bold move and commitment to an advanced degree with 2 years of experience. Your courage, self confidence and nursing skill and acumen are much greater than mine was at that career mark. It's is to be comm...

Why would you share any of that on the internet anyway if this were a real BON complaint? There is a difference in a group assignment for your class among willing participants and then there is "borrowing" perspectives from others unaware....Do your...

I say that myself coming in to work! LOL

Hmmm... Calling in sick when you're not really sick.....I'll admit I was perfectly healthy and had just worked the night before. But I called in sick with no qualms about it the very next morning when I came home to find my husband dead at home from...

I agree 100%. I am a student at Walden also and have loved the program. The complaints you may have read about "you teach yourself" and "I am reading a book to learn this"...in the real world, what is it that you do anyway? Pick up a book and learn i...
