Notes About TN from a TN Nurse.
All colleges on the above lists are NLNAC Accredited, and meet
the full standards of the TN Nurse Practice Act. TN WILL accredit nurses from Excelsior who have passed the NCLEX.
Vanderbilt WILL and HAS accepted Excelsior nursing alumni into their masters degree programs.
You can also complete your nursing online through the TN Board of Regents, by attending campus only for clinical labs and skill verifications, and attending clinicals on site; through one of the TN Board of Regents and NLNAC Accredited Nursing schools.

Campaign for Nursing
* Personal note: Johnson & Johnson's Campaign for nursing is
a great place to get scholarships, and a great place to help
our fellow brothers/sisters in nursing and nursing school.
Remember: By seeking to set about change within ourselves,
we seek to set about change in our communities.
I will help any of you in any way I can, so feel free to send
me a private message. Also, if you wish to know anything about
getting into EMS, or Critical Care Transport--I am a Critical Care Paramedic and Flight Nurse as well.
