1. No one should be called a nurse without a BSN degree

    It is all just the appearances.  

    It looks like that something is improving for the profession and and better patient care/outcome when in fact it is not.

    Changing the test, does not improve patient care, does not increase the survival rate, does not decrease error, does not improve patient-to-nurse ratio, does not decrease the shortage (on the contrary).

    I do not understand why the entry level to be a RN is not at the BS level!  "Anyone" in scrubs is a "nurse".  What are they thinking?

    Why they don't work on a national standard BSN curriculum so everyone gets the same education across the country?
    The problem is not only on schools cutting corners, the problem is that we lack national standards... No one should be called a nurse without a BSN degree.
    WE ARE NURSES, NOT TOYS!
