I was orienting for my new night shift job recently, 7a - 7p, and learned that I am responsible to find coverage for the next shift (nurse or CNA) should someone call off. Usually call offs occur at 5:00 a.m. so that means I get to scramble and wake ...

I am an LPN new grad and had planned on going back for my RN. Now I'm struggling with the decision to bridge to RN since no one will hire unless you have experience. If no one will hire me as an LPN with no experience, I'm afraid that I won't be hire...
I don't know about a union. All I can say is that I received great care from the LPN's at this facility, and at times they were more caring than the RN's.
Just last week an Akron, Ohio area hospital eliminated 70 LPN positions immediately. Some of the LPN's had worked there over 20 years. The hospital claims they won't see a deficit in the quality of client care by this decision. Really??? So those 70 ...
I think you and I are considering the same school. I wish we could find out more information from students that graduated from there. I like that they offer certifications in several areas which would give us an edge in the job market. It is consider...
I wish you the best. It has to be very disheartening to work so hard and then not find employment. From what I have read from the other posts, you are not alone.
Thanks for the information. Could you tell me the time frame of when new classes start, like January or August? I researched their website but I couldn't find any information in regard to this. Thanks.

I found these threads to be of great value because I've been wondering the same thing. I needed a realistic view of what to expect in the nursing profession. I was naive to think that anyone who gets into the nursing profession surely must have the a...
THANK YOU!!! Tri-C should hire you to be their recruiter, LOL! I checked out the other info you gave pertaining to Tri-C and I can't thank you enough. I know the others on this site feel the same. :bowingpur:bowingpur:bowingpur:bowingpur:bowingpur:bo...
Wow, that's great! You must be so excited. I have some personal questions if you don't mind, but I'm asking out of desperation for the information, not because I'm trying to be nosey. I am a non-traditional student going back to school after eons of ...
Thank you for taking the time to respond. It's wearing me out trying to find my way into nursing school. I know I can do the work, but getting my foot in the right door is frustrating...so many things to consider! I hope your friend has great success...
