  1. Excelsior BSN vs BS Health Science

    MedictoRN replied to MedictoRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    All of the literature I can find leads me to believe that PA's have a more w comprehensive scope of practice if not a more autonomous practice than that of a NP. At least here in Michigan the scope...

  2. Excelsior BSN vs BS Health Science

    MedictoRN replied to MedictoRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I haven't met a PA without a job, but I'm sure they are out there. I already have my RN. Just looking toward the

  3. Ambulance Personnel and wait times

    MedictoRN replied to Kince's topic in Emergency

    After the second time of having to wait more than a few minutes, I would call the nursing supervisor from the back of the ambulance and inform them of my ETA and that I expect them to meet me at the...

    MedictoRN replied to jasmine7's topic in Online Distance Learning

    The only people's numbers I would trust is Excelsior, the rest are trying to sell you on

  5. EC grads will be allowed licensure in California *update*

    MedictoRN replied to rehab nurse's topic in Online Distance Learning

    As the letter clearly said they are BOTH attempting to work on clearing through the red tape involved with this issue. Again, I must ask "Do you have any proof for the allegations you make against us...

  6. A&P through ccconline?

    MedictoRN replied to klleo27's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I took Microbiology online through ccconline as well as Basic A&P they weren't easy but very doable if you can put some time into it. I took the EC A&P exam after the ccconline course and got...

  7. California and Excelsior

    MedictoRN posted a topic in Online Distance Learning

    California should simply accept the fact that excelsior isn't going away. I'm sure the law suits are not over. The fact remains that there are THOUSANDS of RN's in California that are Excelsior...

  9. California and Excelsior

    MedictoRN replied to MedictoRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Everyone listen very carefully now: The CPNE is not clinical rotations; it is an exam to prove beginning level graduate registered nursing competency. It is not a weekend course or a class. No one...

  12. California BORN Prevails In Excelsior College Lawsuit

    MedictoRN replied to Sheri257's topic in Online Distance Learning

    It really is a sad state of affairs. I really find it insulting that everyone ignores the fact that these people do have "actual clinical experience". They also must prove competence. The proctors...

  13. anatomy and physicology test through college network

    MedictoRN replied to adean's topic in Online Distance Learning

    To my understanding College Network doesn't have an A&P test. They offer study guides for Excelsior College's Exam. Be very careful and be sure you understand what you are getting into with...

  14. I need HELP!! with IV starts

    MedictoRN replied to Jasano's topic in Infusion, Intravenous

    Here's my suggestion: Go to the nearest ambulance station and ask them if they can let you use their practice arm. This way you can start 20 of them in a half of an hour and nobody will say "ow"....

    MedictoRN replied to opalmRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    FYI-- You needn't wait for your NCLEX-PN exam to take the NC1 or NC2 exams. You can take these as well as any of your other general ed exams prior to enrolling in the program. Good Luck!!!! Dustin...

  16. Prereq's for RN to BSN programs

    MedictoRN replied to june77's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I would recommend Excelsior College to you. They afford you 30 credits toward your BSN just for having taken the NCLEX-RN, and the cost is very affordable compaired to other colleges, and will take...

  17. online schools cheapen our profession?

    MedictoRN replied to $/satisfaction?'s topic in Online Distance Learning

    You'll especially get a lot of grief if you can't let one post go by without posting some inflamatory and narrow minded comment. Yes Lizz, We all know that your traditional program churns out nurses...

  19. I was totally dissed last night

    MedictoRN replied to Law of Fives's topic in Online Distance Learning

    It's been around for 30+ years and was recently honored by the NLN. They do require clinicals or clinical equivalence. Anyone who enters the program has to provide a professional license (Paramedic,...

    MedictoRN replied to 1dreday's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Here's a fact. I just got back from a CPNE workshop and one of the LVNs there actually works at Kaiser and her boss can't wait for her to get licensed so she can use her as an RN. She started this...

    It's pretty obvious that you will never see the other side of anything. Especially anything that challenges your precious notion the California is infinitely wiser than ALL of the other states and...

    MedictoRN replied to 1dreday's topic in Online Distance Learning

    The State per say doesn't make money per say but the BON has a vested interest in keeping out of state schools out of California. This "not concurrent with theory" crap was just an easy way for them...
