CFCman: LVN or do you mean LPN? And there is no nurse in the US that earns $12 an hour. Even some people who do baby sitting jobs earn more than $12, so how can a nurse be earning $12. RNs earn as from $25 up. nursing is a great career choice in the US |

You are well paid in abroad . I know two people that didn't study nursing in Nigeria but as soon as they went abroad they studied it and they are doing very well. 1 Like |

Bhanjea: You came online, typed all that BS just to insult your teachers/lecturers with your stvpid ideology? Same mentality that has kept the nursing profession stagnated for donkey years in the health sector. With your kind of thinking, one can conclude that hospital based trained quacks parading as nurses are the best since they have all their training in the hospital blending it with practicals #pleaseRecieveCommonSense If you are a registered nurse from a school of nursing you better go back to school and get your first degree (and possibly develop to PhD etc) peacefully so that you can proceed to the peak while upholding professionalism in Nursing as obtainable in other professions.

chuksbogus2001: Very noble post. From those ive seen here .Nurses are buying bond houses, brand cars chacha,going on vacation abroad o. Only the ignorant or those with limited knowledge do not understand the importance and benefits that goes Nursing. I love those people die and can defend them anywhere. However i pray the demand for change in uniform with the global trend pull through for Nigerian Nurses. See Nurses uniform for RN/PN Nurse, Staff Nurses and Student Nurses here. Smart and very attractive. That student nursing picture with page band over white uniform and the very old head band no be am...haba...too archaic. 1 Like

gunpoint: What evidence do you have to back up your strong statements? It's true that a good number of nigerian nurses struggle financially as is common in most workers, however that does not mean that nursing does not pay. I worked as a nurse in Lagos for about five years and was making more money than many people thought was possible, it all depends on where you work. I once went for an interview where the start pay for nurses was over 500k and there are lots of places like that around. 3 Likes

tohpahz:Get your BnSc after your RN as this dichotomy won't help anybody. Whether they know it or not, babe, with time they will be well grounded in both theory and practicals and RNs will still be called their assistants according to FG while they go home with heavy pockets. 1 Like |

Let me school those feeding others with lies about degree nurses. The degree program formally called Bachelor of Nursing Science (B.N.Sc) has a one year practically oriented internship program imbedded in its curriculum to cover any lapse in the practical development of graduates of the program. For reasons best known to whom it may concern, graduates of the BNSc are chunked out into the labour market without going for this internship. Every profession has its ups and downs and nursing is not an exception to this reality.The prayer of every progressive nurse or nursing sympathizer is for the full implementation of the BNSc program (internship inclusive) so that we all can have the nursing of our dream in Nigeria. Yes, it's not easy for any sane mind (nurse) who is progress loving to be at peace with the state of the profession today, I know nursing will get it right soon cos the handwriting on the wall is bold enough for all to understand the message. Some days back, someone tried to educate us on NL on the differences between a career and a job. So, OP both career and job abound in nursing. Your greatest frustration would be felt when you pursue a career in nursing cos thousands of nurses fighting tooth and nail to convince you that "black is white" litter everywhere you turn to in Naija, to make it worse, they will tell you that black doesn't exist and has never existed. Truth is, nursing is beginning to get it right after a very long slumber and some of the best things that would happen to nursing in Nigeria are: 1) The implementation of internship program for BNSc graduates. 2) Complete affiliation of all Schools of Nursing to Departments of Nursing in the Universities. 3) Conversion of all Post Basic Specialties to Post Graduate Specialties in nursing (ie who specializes with an equivalent of a diploma certificate and wants to be called or treated as a specialist/consultant/professional). 4 Etc etc OP, Nursing is a very lucrative profession and a perfect career choice if ventured into with the right mindset. Nobody can pay the direct equivalent to nurses for their jobs but there is a huge difference between being paid well and being paid peanuts. However, what is worth doing is worth doing well, go for BNSc program. Nursing will get it right, thanks for choosing nursing as a career. Check my signature 8 Likes |

Bhanjea: Ur number 2 and 3 up there are bold lies. There's a match in the US for more nurses to get their degrees. All medical and health degrees in Nigeria are theory oriented. Nobody does practicals in the university. They make up for the deficit during internship. The problem is that graduate nursing have been denied internship, hence there is a gap in their education. But still, a diploma and a degree holder will NEVER be equal 3 Likes |

tohpahz: If you so. But the degree still commands a higher entry level and exit level. With your RN, the best you ll be is a chief nursing officer, while your former subordinates will climb over you to become directors. If internship is implemented, with the merging of theoretical knowledge with practicals, RNs ll become irrelevant. Babe You are young, please go to a university and get your degree, join the rank of 21st century nurses, else tomorrow ll be difficult with just a diploma. |
