Not true. My sister is an RN with an AS degree. She could earn more if she completed a BS, but the state exam that makes you an RN is not contingent on having the BS.
Yes, if you follow the discussion, you’ll see that another FReeper gave me some info on that.
You used to have a 4 yr degree to be an RN, 2 yrs for an LPN.
Nursing degrees have changed over the yrs.
Apparently, there’s some disagreement over whether this killer is an RN or an LVN.
