A Group of Registered Nurses with ADN Degrees Are Concerned

After contacting the American Nurses Association, they learn they will be "grandfathered" in. Under the "grandfather clause," nurses with associate degrees will:

A) be required to complete a bridge program to earn a BSN and then be tested only on material that was not part of the ASN curriculum.
B) continue to use the title "registered nurse."
C) have 10 years to obtain a BSN or the license will be revoked.
D) use whatever title is established for associate degree nurses.
