1. New to Hospice

   NurseStephy posted a topic in Hospice

   Hello! Just sharing since I am so excited! I recently accepted a position as a case manager in hospice. I have felt guided to do this for years and finally worked up the nerve to put myself out there and give it a try. I was an LPN for 7 years and ha...

2. Re: License by endorsement

   NurseStephy replied to ERTRAVELER's topic in Louisiana

   I was really thinking that endorsing my Indiana license to Louisiana was going to be a nightmare. There is a lot of paperwork involved and the the staff are not very friendly if you call with questions. In fact, they act down right frustrated and put...

3. What is your routine to clean-up and decompress after your shift?

   NurseStephy replied to kelsn's topic in General Nursing

   Shoes off in the car. Scrubs in the laundry, hop in the shower. Then I eat and watch T.V. Sometimes Wii fit :)

4. www.rmfscrubs.com

   NurseStephy posted a topic in Uniform/Gear

   www.rmfscrubs.com Has anybody ordered from this site? The prices look fantastic but I'm not sure. Starting a new job that requires navy and/or white and those are the two colors I wear the very least when it comes to scrubs. Any info is appreciated!

5. What color are your school uniforms?

   NurseStephy replied to TheCommuter's topic in General Students

   Hunter green scrubs with school patch on right sleeve... much better than LPN school. That required white grenny shirt with white tapered leg pants. We had to wear a white apron with green and kakhi diagnal stripes. Of course white shoes... and can y...

6. dating in nursing school

   NurseStephy replied to brokenroads27's topic in General Students

   You're making the right move by staying single. No one needs the added stress of a brand new relationship in nursing school. I started dating a pushy guy toward the end of LPN school... and he had to go!! My grades suffered and it was so not worth it...

8. Are A's Impossible at Ivy Tech?

   NurseStephy replied to milan18400's topic in Indiana

   It's really hard, I know! But critical thinking skills are required. Give yourself time to adjust, don't give up!

9. Ivy Tech, Purdue or IUN?

   NurseStephy replied to Jgarrison's topic in Indiana

   I know that Ivy Tech transfers to Ball State. Ball has an online ASN to BSN that I plan on continuing with. Good Luck!

10. I hate this #$(*!!!

    NurseStephy replied to Nurse4life09's topic in Career Support

    I understand. I wasn't forced into this, but I really couldn't afford years and years at a university (I had to pay for my own schooling). So, I knew I could become a nurse rather quickly and be able to support myself. Going to graduate ASN in May an...

11. Roll Call, LPN to RN Students!!!

    NurseStephy replied to Marie_LPN, RN's topic in LPN-RN

    I am a 29 year old mother of twin babies! I've been an LPN for 6 years and will graduate from the transitional program May 2010. I'm so ready to be done. I have worked neuro/uro, LTC, and dialysis. Not sure what I want as an RN but I'd love to try L&...
