Need help....

I just would like to ask... Cause I enrolled on a review center for NCLEX here in my country, And the lecturer said he is a licensed CA nurse...
But when I searched his name now... His status has a revocation... What does that mean? does it mean his license is revoked? Also he told us he is an accredited AHA (american heart Assoc.) member... I don't know what to do anymore and where to ask for help... Because we feel we have been mocked.... I'm worried about taking my NClex exam because I felt my review was all a joke...

Revoked means that the BRN has taken his license away.
American Heart Assn member means absolutely nothing in terms of preparing you for an exam.

Sorry that you have wasted you money. What country are you in?
Then I can tell you what to do next.

I'm in Philippines... Because we were sweet talked by his "so-called" influence in the california... Like he has affiliates in the American Heart and so forth... But his status in the BRN is active but the disciplinary action indicates "revocation" so I just wnat to make sure also that the training and the lecturer is really a licensed nurse too... I'm not worried about my money anymore, I'm worried he woul try to cheat more people and I don't want that too happen... He didn't even finish our review...

Lavander, buy a sanders book. Many people are passing with using various study guides. Good Luck to you.

thanks i will....

Suzanne4... You've been very helpful too.. but need some clarity regarding the issue with the lecturer... If the status written is revoked that means he can never practice nursing again? But is he still valid as a lecturer? Because a friend of mine in California also informed me he has a education center in California and still conducting reviews and training for nurses... is this legal?

You can still train without a license, but I think that it is unethical of him. And I believe that the center owes you a refund. And especially if he never finished your training program and you paid for it.

Personally, I would report it to the equivalent of the Board of Nursing in your country, as well as the US Embassy there in Manila.

Thanks for your quick reply Ms. Suzanne4.... I also discovered that he has been conducting seminars, reviews and training to the nursing schools in here in our country... I will report it to authorities since he is cheating a lot of people already... Mostly students... He also promises students that they will quickly pass Nclex because he has a set of Guides or questionaires from NCLEx. and that he has hiring company for california... very bad....

Re: Need help....

Check out the sticky that I posted about this on the Philippines Forum. And just make sure that you do not sign up with his agency. But it definitely needs to be reported to the authorities in Manila, as well as the US Embassy there. He is taking advantange of people that are trusting him on his word.

And he doesn't have a set of guides or quesitons from NCLEX, if he does, that he is also in hot water with the Board that writes the quesitons.

If he has a pending issue with the BRN in CA, then that is probably why he is back in the Philippines.

Please send me his name by pm..................
