  1. LPN salary in New Orleans/Northshore area

    Thanks for the response. I am starting the LPN program at Nunez in the spring; it's a year long. Salary matters, but experience matters more, KWIM? I think I want to work at Ocshner b/c it seems like their LPNs get to do the more patient care than th...
  2. Charity LPN Program

    The deadline is tomorrow. You need to have all of your pre-reqs completed and be enrolled in the required math course for the summer. Here is a link to the bulletin http://nunez.edu/Academic%20Affairs%20-%20Public/HealthSciencesDivision/Practical_Nu...
  3. Charity LPN Program

    Nunez's LPN program has a new director, and she has totally redone the program (for the better). The program is only 12 months now and has more clinical time than classroom time, so more hands on stuff than before. Also, the clinicals are done in hos...
  4. Excelsior-can I start studying now?

    Thank you for your responses, it's appreciated :)
  5. I am (hopefully) entering into an LPN program in January. The program is 12 months long, and I plan to enroll in Excelsior as soon as I graduate. I had the initial intention of completing an ADN or BSN program, but I'm haveing quite a bit of trouble ...
  6. SELU spring 2012

    According to the school of nursing web page, if you have already started the 121/101, etc. sequence you are required to finish it. So yes, they should accept it.

    Su, I think that the BSN at SELU may be the better choice for me. The last time I looked into SELU they held all of their clinicals in Baton Rouge, but now there are clinical sections in Hammond, Covington, and Slidell. It will be nice to be able to ...
  8. Charity SON Spring 2012

    My overall GPA is 3.51, and my CSN GPA is 3.41. I got 0 points b/c I dropped two courses in 2007 (Fine Arts and a Micro re-take b/c I got a C and was trying to get a higher grade). I got an 83 on the TEAS, but what really hurt me was that my A&P ...
  9. SELU spring 2012

    http://www.selu.edu/acad_research/depts/nurs/undergrad_degree/curriculum_documents/11-12%20Nursing%20Curriculum%20Sheet%20Website2.pdf They changed some of the pre-reqs, you only need one intro. chem course instead of chem I and II!
  10. What is average pay for an LPN working in a hospital in the New Orleans/Northshore area? Do LPNs get shift diffs like RNs do, and if so how much extra is it for nights and weekends? I'm trying to decided if it would be beneficial to me (monetarily, I...
  11. Louisiana Nurses--Need Info!

    If the hospitals are not hiring then why do they have jobs posted? There is a particular hospital (on the northshore) who's job openings change regularly. I always thought that the posted positions were getting filled and then new positions were open...
  12. SELU spring 2012

    I think that every college/university is like that. I've been to a few different schools, and I have not had a great experience with any of them.
  13. SELU spring 2012

    I was told that if I am in my last semester of pre-reqs when I am applying, that I need to be enrolled at SLU. If I do not want to enroll at SLU for my last semester, then I need to wait until I am completely done with pre-reqs before I can apply. I ...

    I regret not retaking the TEAS, I have no idea why I didn't! I think the cut off score depends on how many applicants there are vs. how many they can accept. From what I've read on here, everyone has said the cut off is usually 40-50, so I guess that...
