From RN to BSN: Student Perceptions

Hillsmith, Katherine E.

Nursing Outlook, 26, 2, 98-102, Feb 78

Discusses a survey sent to 119 RN (registered nursing) students enrolled in a BSN (bachelor of science in nursing) program which revealed much unresolved ambivalence about the meaning of "professional" nursing and the need for the BSN; suggests that a major problem in nursing today is the professional/technical controversy that must be settled for a more united nursing profession.
