  2. Resume and Cover Letter Help... Please

  8. Pct refused delegation

  11. Copy and pasted directly from the Alberta LPN competency profile : A Licensed Practical Nurse will: S-2-2 Demonstrate knowledge and ability to provide full health assessment of the client including, but not limited to: (See Competency Band B)  admis...
  12. I live and work in Canada as a LPN and we most certainly do assessments!!! I work on a very acute hospital unit and have sole responsibly for 4 -5 pt's on a day shift. If I am not responsible for assessments then that means my pt's must not be gettin...
  13. WHOAAAA!!!! Better do your homework before posting such a claim. I am not even going to comment any further than this because anything I say from here on in will not be nice. Fellow LPN's care to comment?
  14. Does this job sound like a scam?

    This DEFIANTLY a scam!!! I responded to an apartment on on Craigslist once and there response email had very similar wording. Apparantly these people have a whole pile of different scams going on.
  15. Didn't need the sarcasm. I bet you are a real ray of sunshine to work with....
