My sister-in-law is currently enrolled in a DNP program and I have been invited to attend her White Coat Ceremony. I've never attended one, and I need suggestions for an appropriate gift for her. Any ideas?
I would be very interested in knowing whether or not you have found a position outside of dialysis. I have worked in dialysis for over 23 years in various positions. Currently, I'm the clinical coordinator for two dialysis centers. I love dialysis a...

Same boat...or almost! I'm 59 and been working in dialysis for 23 years and honestly don't even know if I could physically work in any other nursing arena. Last year I completed an RN-BSN online program just mainly for self-satisfaction and to make m...
Am I crazy? I'm 58 and just completed my RN-BSN online after having my ADN since age 35. I've worked in hemodialysis my entire career and love it. I actually don't think I could do any other type of nursing anymore. I've always wanted to become a ce...
I've been an RN since 1995 and have worked in hemodialysis for the past 23 years. I only have a few months experience working in the hospital setting and that was 18 years ago. I recently completed an RN-BSN Program. Now, I've been accepted to an MS...
Hi, Everyone! I'm a dialysis nurse and I'm also enrolled in an RN-BSN program. As part of my Transition To Baccalaureate Class I am required to complete several mentoring hours/activities. Nephrology Nurses Week is coming up in a couple of weeks. Sin...
I've been an ADN dialysis nurse since 1995. I love nephrology and really don't want to work in any other field of nursing. I will finish an online RN-BSN program this Dec at the age of 58. I'm debating on whether pursuing a MSN is worth it. It will t...
I graduated with an ADN 23 years ago. Currently, I'm enrolled in an RN-BSN program and will graduate this December at the age of 58. I plan to obtain a Master's Degree but I'm unsure about which road to take, the MSN in Education or FNP. Both progra...
Thank you everyone for your input. What you are saying makes perfectly good sense. I think my worry is that there may not be much demand for a 60-something year old NP.

I've been a RN since 1995 when I received my ADN. My three daughters are grown now so I decided to return to school and obtain my BSN. I will graduate in Dec at age 58. I am just going to keep on going to school and pursue a MSN. I haven't been a ver...
Hi Everyone, I'm currently enrolled in an RN-BSN program and taking my first research class ever. I am required to do a Research Critique on an assigned article. This project will count for a high percentage of my grade. Most of the students in the c...
As part of an EBP project I am required to give a narrated powerpoint presentation - 11 slides max. This is my first class in an RN-BSN program after 21 years. I have never done a powerpoint presentation in my life! I welcome all advice! Thanks in ad...
I just wanted to thank everyone for their helpful advice. My instructor replied to my email today and guess what?! I wasn't wrong to be concerned about this article....NOT a research article! I was given another article to critique along with apologi...
Yes, six references are from Bandura. I am so frustrated with this project. Maybe I'm making more of it than it really has to be IDK. The assignment states each student will be assigned a single study research article to critique. The instructor prov...
