Hi all,
Hopefully someone is still reading this forum and can help me out. I'm an ADN RN working towards my BSN (will receive this fall) and my MSN in nursing education which I'll receive in 2012. I was recently hired as a LVN/LPN instructor- both classroom and clinicals. My back ground is OB, as you can tell by my name, so much of this will be 'new' to me since I haven't worked med/surg for 11 years. I have a few weeks before I start, and I'm trying to find out if there are any textbooks or programs specifically for LVN/LPN instructors, some guidelines for teaching, tips, etc that I can study up on prior to starting. Thanks in advance.

OMG!!! I REPLACED SOMEONE VERY SIMILAR TO THIS SITUATION. IM THE REPLACEMENT TEACHER AND IM GETTING THE SHORT END OF THE STICK. LOL. not only is it my first time teaching but i entered at a very hostile time. ugh im trying to learn the school policies & procedures, learn different learning styles and figure out how to create lesson plans and effectively come up with a system. i have no one to turn to. other instructors dont teach a medical class. They teach IT. just overwhelmed. i would love help with anything i can. From a policy/procedure manual (for my lab) to assignments for any course you may have taken. anything is appreciated.
