Hi everyone. I'm a recent graduate (August 24) of an accredited LPN program:studyowl:. During the ceremony one of three professors hand out and award. I happened to earn the award for CLINICAL EXCELLENCY, which basically means that they thought I interacted the best with my patient, performed the best patient care, was able to carry out my duties with limited guidance and completed my charting according to policy!!!! Now, I believe that most of my fellow peers deserved to receive this award also, but being that only one is given out, I'm glad that I was the recipient because I worked so hard to prove to everyone that I could do it. I did my clinical with dedication to my patients, but also to myself. Before I began the program a little over a year ago, I was a stay at home mom of 2 boys (5 & 3). Being in an unsteady relationship with the father of my kids for 7 years always left me wondering what would become of my life if we ever split up. I had basically no college education (1 semester in human services when I became pregnant) How would I support myself? So one day I got the mail and inside was a brochure form an LPN school and I thought..Hmmm, a nurse sounds like a good idea, and so I signed up and one year on wait list later, I got accepted. My idea of a nurse was far from what I was going to experience. Many times I doubted myself, and even wondered if this is what I wanted to. But as time passed I realized that this is something that I can definitely do and is very rewarding. And so receiving this award acknowledging my work and dedication definitely boosted my ego. And remember that I was just a stay at home mom with no past healthcare experince. I think I've done Darn good for myself. My NCLEX-PN test date is Nov. 2. I'll write back to tell all that I passed!!!!!
The reason I need help is because I'm looking for any websites that contain quizzes or tests for the nclex exam.
Thanxs
