WOW! I can sooooo relate to your story... and the "monkey can do our job" thing... well I just heard that the other day on a different message board. I was SHOCKED! What a terrible thing to say! I work with some really great RN's who are really disappointed about the VA nursing boards decision. I was told I could ASK for an personal extension on the deadline, which I will do (even though there is no guarantee they will grant it). In the meantime I just refuse to lay down and watch the "trickle down effect" occur from state to state with the end result being the ULTIMATE DEMISE of the Excelsior College LPN to Assoc. RN degree ALTOGETHER. I mean, SOMEBODY has to speak up! I figure, it starts with ONE voice... I may not win, but I HAVE to try. Thanks again for signing the petition, and if I ever were to collapse in public...
You sound like JUST the person I would want nearby!!
