  1. Is it me or is hiring at Kaiser Permanente a joke?

    I know how you feel. I was hired by an eager Department Manager with a Kaiser outpatient facility. It took 5 weeks before I actually started, meanwhile I turned down another hospital offer to go with the Golden Egg Kaiser. The initial Kaiser welcome ...
  2. Applying as LVN or RN externship

    Wow!!! What hospital did you intern at?
  3. Kaiser Curious?

    At my rotation at Kaiser, I was told it's 23$hr starting out. It is a union job so therefore a set pay rate.
  4. LVN Hospital Salary..Southern California

    How did you get vent certified?
  5. Kaiser Interview for LVNs

    How did it go? I am interested in Kaiser as well. As a new grad myself, I was not sure if I should apply for the LVN II jobs they keep posting. How were you able to score an interview as a new grad? Any info would be much appreciated!! P.S. Good Luck...
  6. new grad lvn in ca

    I like your take on marketing yourself based on other skills. Do you think you could post you resume, so I could get an idea of how yours looked -- it worked afterall!! I am trying to come up with a new resume as well. I just passed the NCLEX.!! Now ...
  7. Nothing is wrong with it!!! You can do a lot with your LVN degree, and get your RN later if you want. I have lots of classmates that already have their Bachelors, so don't think you are alone. You will do well with the fact that you can handle your s...
  8. Skeptical about the high amount of Student Loan

    My school is 26,500. It was a lot to swallow at first, but now I can see how much I am learning. It feels so great to work in a field where I can actually help people and make a difference. It is worth the loan. Less than many cars you can buy, right...
  9. I wish everyone would get it...let me study!!!

    Thank you all!! Things are much better now. I am more direct about saying NO now, and my friends/family have adjusted. I even delayed my sons birthday party by 1 month and he was fine with it. I guess it took time to adjust for everyone. I am sure th...
  10. So how's everyone doing in their lpn program?

    I am 10 weeks in, and loving it. While it is challenging, it's also wonderful being challenged (especially after doing the Mom thing for the past 8 years). I am amazed that I have a 97% class average, and clinicals are going well too. I do focus more...
  11. Please help me!

    You have a lot to learn, and study the first 6 weeks. I would wait to get your cna. I am glad I have no previous experience in a facility, and therfore have not picked up any bad habits...sorry but I just had my 2nd day in clinicals, and there were s...
  12. its my turn...

    That is awesome!! Good for you, and thanks for giving us all hope.
  13. I wish everyone would get it...let me study!!!

    You are all so right. A part of me wants to just deal with it without creating waves, and making people think they have to treat me "special". I am a people pleaser, and it goes against my nature to say no and be negative about things. I also don't w...
  14. I wish everyone would get it...let me study!!!

    Thank you Pharmgirl! You are so right. I have been preping mentally for this for a while, and I guess they do too. Thanks for the reply. It helps to hear that I am not the only one with this issue.
  15. I have 4 weeks under my belt in an LVN program. I have been getting straight A's on all my tests, knock on wood. I had to cut back on my pt job (waitressing). So I work fri, sat,sun and have school mon-thur. Its doable but I ache for a day off. I stu...
