After browsing this site I see several nurses posted years ago about their interest in starting the masters holistic nursing program through Tennessee State. I'm interested in this and wondering, did anyone do it? Anyone have a masters in holistic nursing that can offer insight? Was it worth it? Or anyone become an NP and go the holistic route successfully? Any advice would be awesome. ....

I know this is a very old thread but I'm wondering if any of you who were going to pursue the MSN in holistic nursing did so and how did it turn out? I'm seriously looking into this. Lola77,NightNurse876????

It's encouraging to know I'm not the only one that feels anxious about the OR. Like most things, sounds like I could grow to be more comfortable with it. Thanks for all of your responses!

Great. Thank you this makes me feel better :-)

Hello! I have a question for you L&D nurses out there. Should I pursue this field if I do not care much for the OR? Let me explain.. I've been a mom/baby nurse for a few years, and also spent a little less than a year doing labor and delivery at an out of hospital birth center, where we only did lady partsl births. If the pt needed a c/s, they would be transferring out of our facility. I am very passionate about this area of nursing and have wanted to move into L&D at the hospital, but I have a fear, an intimidation, of the OR. I hated my OR rotations in nursing school and find myself anxious thinking about having to go into the OR on a regular basis for cesareans. On the other hand I don't want this fear to get in the way. I guess I'm wondering, really how much of your time being an L&D nurse is spent in the OR? Do you think I could learn to be confident in this? Thanks for any advice.
