  1. ISO Self-paced online MSN NSG WGU and Capellas Informatics program

    Following. I'm researching going for informatics as well.
  2. FCCA

    ***UPDATE*** I ended up taking 274A and C at the same time and I'm glad I did! I found that there was plenty of time in my life to study for both of these exams. It wasn't easy but I made it. I passed both!!!
  3. FCCA

    Thanks everyone for your responses. I don't want to spend 16 weeks doing both when I could be done in 8 weeks. I have plenty of time on the weekends to do all the assigned readings.
  4. FCCA

    Hello everyone. I am down to my last class in Phase 2 and I'm trying to plan for the FCCA. I know the FCCA is in 2 parts but and you can take them both together, if you want. Should I take 1 at a time or should I take them both at the same time? ...
  5. Transition to RN

    Has anyone recently taken this exam? I'm currently studying for this exam and it seems like easy material but it's just so much information. I feel like I'm not focusing on the right material. Can any recent test takers let me know what I should b...
  6. Starting The ADN Program This Fall!

    Congrats! I just started preparing for my 2nd exam. The best advice I can give you is invest in the practice exams, study guides and be prepared to do ALOT of reading/note taking.
  7. med/surg vs home care with small children?

    I recently went from a full-time 12hr LTC job to a home health job and while I work Mon-Fri 8am-whenever my last patient is, you often have to chart from home. Depending on how busy or your patient load, you could chart for hours. So some days, you...
  8. Impossible to work correctly

    I agree with TheCommuter 100%. Trying to do too much too soon will completely burn you out. When I first entered in SNF, I would come in to work 15 minutes early and I would write in my notebook which assignment I had, which vitals I had to do, wri...
  9. Before I get hired in a LTC... WTH!!!

    I would suggest to be friendly but not too friendly. Do your own assessments because it's always better to see things with your own eyes if something needs to be called to the doctor and charted. Time management is essential because you may have med...
  10. Not 100% sure but I don't think you have to list a job that you left in your probationary period (i.e 90 days) on your employment history. I've been told in the first 3 months of employment, if you quit, it's without penalty and doesn't need to be t...
  11. Extra shifts

    I work full-time at my SNF job and I'm constantly asked to work extra shifts even if it results in overtime. Their main motivation at my job is just to have a warm body to cover that shift otherwise the higher-ups would have to come out of their off...
  12. Need help putting skills down on resume

    Thanks everyone! I think I was just having a mental block and when I looked over my resume, my skills didn't look very polished.
  13. Need help putting skills down on resume

    Hi everyone. I was hoping I could get some help with enhancing my skills on my resume. I work full-time in LTC as an LPN. I have some skills already on my resume but I'm drawing a blank and honestly don't know why I can't think of nursing skills t...
  14. Annual Pay Raises in 2014

    I haven't seen a raise or had an evaluation in 3 years.
  15. Impossible Family Member

    I have a family member just like this! No matter what you do, there is always something else wrong. He is so bad that even the CNAs won't even walk in his direction because he is that nitpicky and disrespectful. Whenever I see him coming, I tell o...
