Hello all, I have an assignment due for my BSN completion program in which I need to "interview" a master's prepared RN. However, I do not know any personally and even at the SNF I work at, my DON just has her ADN (her emphasis not mine). I am going to post questions and I hope someone who has MSN can post answers. I thank you for any assistance you can provide. Thanks.

Mary, I have an assignment due for my BSN completion program asking me to "interview" a master's prepared nurse. Unfortunately in my small town, and at my SNF, my DON only has her ADN. Would you (or anyone on this board) be willing to answer questions for me? I'm desperate. I came to you because when I search MSN your post is the first that popped up. I will post questions. Anyone willing to answer, I appreciate any assistance you can provide. Thank you, AAB
