   DvotedNurse posted a topic in SRNA

5. Why Would He...??

   DvotedNurse replied to pagandeva2000's topic in LPN/LVN

   WOW! It's not that serious really. If so, Pray for the guy. It changes things positively moreso than any other method. When you begin a new job as a new nurse, you have enough adversity in that alone not including the gossip that you may plan to spr...

   DvotedNurse replied to sexymonkeyboy's topic in General Nursing

   I work at the VA in Gainesville FL. I know many CNA's that make well over $13 some make $15-$17 plus. I know this to be factual not heresay. Honestly they pay CNA's more than they pay LPN's. I am an LPN, all of the CNA's on my floor make $1to $5 dol...

    DvotedNurse replied to Ali8155's topic in Online Learning

    You have to enroll with Excelsior in order to take the CPNE and NC3, NC4, NC5, NC6, and Foundations of Professonal Practice. You are wise to choose not to go through The College Network. If I were you I'd check out ebay, many people(students) sell ...

    Sheesh, I thought this was my window of opportunity. I can't believe I let them rip me off. I called the recruiter and said "Hey, I'm vulnerable, rip me off." Then they want you to recruit others, to get your books free possibly. I'm sorry but I have...

    Let's say I choose TCN but have not received all my books. The cancellation is good until you recieve all of the books? I was told 3 days after you sign it's a done deal. Please respond, this is beautiful, because clearly it's not working for me.
