3. clinical hours

   sheilahdee replied to sheilahdee's topic in LPN/LVN Students

   It's funny, they do know. because all they would tell me is that if I miss one more I will have to make it up at the end of the year. But they won't give me my exact hours. she has said she just won't tell us. Many of us have asked over and over. I d...

5. clinical hours

   sheilahdee posted a topic in LPN/LVN Students

8. Just a question to understand the ER better

   sheilahdee replied to sheilahdee's topic in Emergency

   That really was the point of my post, was to understand better. Not too much to complain, it was just bad timing for me to post since I was still emotional. but I really appreciate everyone's opinion and experience. It really does help. triage is not...

11. Drug cards

    sheilahdee replied to Jazziepants's topic in LPN/LVN Students

    oh drug cards. we actually only did a few last year, but then over the summer we had 65 to do (among other many summer assignments). They are a pain, but they are helpful! We were also not allowed to copy, paste, buy preprinted, and we had to do our ...
