1. online LVN program?

   pinksky replied to kgurpreet's topic in LPN/LVN Students

   pinksky replied to pinksky's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Thanks PMFB-RN, It doesn't have to be private schools, anything that will help newcomers or exhausted pre-students like myself. I've found out just looking for a good nursing school is a job in itself! Thanks for your contribution;)

14. Pay rate in Los Angeles

    pinksky replied to ICU_JOSIE's topic in California

    I'm assuming you're moving from England because of the GPB sign I saw (I lived there recently). I'm not an expert, but that works out to be over 60usd per hour, and I haven't heard of that. You may want to go to a site called Salary.com or payscale...
