  1. LVN as a CRC...help!

    Hello again! I finally got a job, and I was curious if there are others out there doing what I do! I just got signed on as a clinical research coordinator for a clinical trials company in L.A. From what I know, usually LVN's don't typically go int...
  2. Question about LVN/LPN in Texas

    Thanks for the reply! I assume any major area is over saturated with LVN's/LPN's, but that's the world we live in . I wouldn't mind working outside of a hospital setting. To be honest, I don't even expect to work a hospital until I get my RN, but ...
  3. Question about LVN/LPN in Texas

    Hello all! I'm an LVN in California, and I have a question for you LPN's/LVN's in Texas. How is the job market out there? I've heard there are positions open in Texas, and I'm curious to hear your opinion about how true it is. I've been licensed ...
  4. Why won't company's hire new grads?

    Personally, I would think training a new grad would be beneficial to a company for many reasons. They can train us to be exactly what they want, and we cost the least. Unfortunately, that's not the case. This is my opinion, but I believe most of t...
  5. Reality Shock...

    I agree with the poster above me. The true reality shock is the lack of jobs available after you graduate. I was fortunate enough to get on board with the H1N1 flu shot rollout, but that only lasted for about 3 months or so. I graduated in January...
  6. Everest... Please Help!

    I'm not up to speed on Michigan, but in California Everest is starting to set up bridge programs in some of their locations. If they're starting that over here, I would suspect they would be starting something similar up in that area as well sometim...
  7. Why I Became an LVN

    I have recently begun to apply for out of state positions, which as of late I spend more time doing out of state applications more than anything within the state. As for TheCommuter, man you hit it right on the head. I graduated in good ol' Souther...
  8. Why I Became an LVN

    I'm so glad that I decided to become an LVN. It took a lot of hard work, time, and so much more. I learned so much that I can use to take better care of myself, my family, and my fellow man. I feel like a whole new person. I have a whole new outl...
  9. Womens interest in male nurses

    My take might be different, but so far everytime I tell a woman I'm a nurse, I automatically become "that guy". What I mean by that is I'm automatically lumped into the category with her gay friends who go shopping with her. It might be the area I'...
  10. Couple questions from a soon-to-be LVN

    Thanks for the replies! I just hope I'm on the right track, I guess I'll find out once I get my results. I do agree with the living healthy aspect before going into the test. I've restructured my diet so it's healthy again, been getting rest, and ...
  11. Hello all! I have a couple questions, if anyone has any advice I'd love to hear it! Well, I finished my LVN courses earlier this year, and I'm taking my NCLEX-PN at the end of this month. I've been reviewing with the Saunders NCLEX review book, an...
