CNA would probably be the best transition to bedside nursing. Personally, I was a medical scribe. I learned an enormous amount of pharmacology, medical terminology, and the flow of the ER. I credit...

I'm sure India has plenty of work for nurses, and you already have a foot in the door of the healthcare system there. Why are you thinking of moving to the
Okay, with that outburst aside, please understand that we are trying to help you. The people on this thread are nurses and student nurses who have been there and are trying to tell you that a poor...
Thank you. I have busted my butt in my RN program so far and gone through the most stressful academic experience of my life and it infuriates me when pre-nursing students say they're a "nursing...

I got straight A's in my pre-reqs and I am now a B/B+ student in my RN program. Most of the information isn't too difficult to grasp, but there is a huge volume of work for a short time, especially...
If this is the case, unless you go for a for-profit BSN program, there's no chance in hell to get into any other BSN or ADN program with a 2.1, I'm sorry to be so blunt. Also, I have no idea where you...
Hi there, I'm a FL nursing student originally from another state. Personally, I waited for residency before starting my nursing program. It was an enormous difference in tuition and any of the schools...
