RN to BSN Online

Posted in Uncategorized

RN to BSN Online

Many accredited universities provide opportunities to earn an RN to BSN degree online, making it a practical and convenient way both for students to become registered nurses and for already registered nurses to obtain a degree which provides specialized training and preparation for an administrative career in nursing. The convenience factor is especially beneficial for the latter group, as online programs allow veteran nurses to pursue an RN to BSN degree without interrupting their current career, and without the sometimes difficult prospect of finding the time and means for an on-campus education. That’s not to say any difference exists between the standard class format and the online option, however; online degree programs are taught by the same full-time and adjuct faculty members which teach at the ground-based institution.

Earning a Bachelor of Science degree in nursing is beneficial in several ways for nurses who are already registered, although it may seem unnecessary for nurses who’ve already gained sufficient experience. For one, a degree program offers specialized training which can open new and attractive career paths, not to mention its ability to provide familiarity with new and ever-changing technology. Academic credentials also open the door for a career in administration and management which offers the prospect of promotion and higher income levels. Online degree programs offer not only the fastest, but the most convenient way to either become a registered nurse or accelerate an already successful career path.

You can get your BSN online right now with the college network.
Go here to get started earning your BSN online now!

If you are an RN, what in the world are you waiting for? Get your BSN today! You’ve been thinking about it forever. Stop thinking and start doing from the comfort of your own home, online in just a few hours a day!

Nurse Jackie

Posted in Permanent Placement, Uncategorized

Showtime has a new series out called “Nurse Jackie”.

Here is the synopsis:

Nurse Jackie is a half-hour dark comedy that is at turns wicked, heartbreaking and funny. Edie Falco stars as the title character Jackie Peyton, a strong-willed and brilliant — but very flawed — emergency room nurse working in the complicated and frenzied environment of a New York City hospital. A lapsed Catholic with a weakness for painkillers to get her through the days, Jackie keeps the hospital balanced with her unique bedside manner and own brand of medical justice. Every day is a high-wire act of juggling patients, doctors and fellow nurses along with her indiscretions. Jackie

It is going to be interesting to see what kind of light Nurse Jackie will shine on the nursing profession.

Posted in Nursing, Nursing Home, Nursing News, Uncategorized

A Canonsburg woman who served as the financial controller for two nursing homes admitted today to embezzling more than $600,000 from them.

Free PBDS Study Guide

Posted in Uncategorized

Update: As of August 2011, the PBDS study is no longer available for download due to a DMCA notification of claimed infringement by Performance Management Services Inc.

Original post content from March 31, 2009:

A lot of people have been asking for a PBDS Study guide on the forum and one of our forum moderators (we only have a couple), who wishes to remain anonymous for safety reasons…ahem…AmandaWIRN has been gracious enough to provide one for everyone to download and use.

Veiled in secrecy, many have questioned the existence of such a fabled document, however it has been said that the elusive PBDS study guide has been closely guarded and passed down through generations by a secret society of traveling nurses — an organization whose existence is known, but whose membership and objectives are yet to be publicly discovered.

It has been theorized that recent economic factors gave rise to animosity and dissent amongst the secret group and a faction of nurses was excommunicated. The ostracized minority then leaked the sacred document in an act of retribution for their dismissal.

In any event, the PBDS Study Guide is now readily available on this website for your use.

Please be sure and thank Amanda on the forum if you use it. You can just click her name above and send her a visitor note on her profile.  You’ll have to register first, but it only takes a second!
