Honey, I WISH I was graduating with an ADN @ 26. Instead I started an LVN program in my 40s. I do wish I had started earlier, but I didn't let that stop me! Go for it!!!! Age ain't nothin but a...

This is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. The fact that you WON your first lawsuit on the basis of "discrimination" is a sad commentary on our judicial system. The entire world does not...

I was raised that thank-you cards are always appropriate! yes! Something simple and professional. "Thank you for your kindness and flexibility in this time of crisis. It is much appreciated and...

I am just finishing up LVN program (9 more weeks!) and even one of our instructors (RN, OR nurse) belittled LVNs and working in LTC as "you're not a real nurse - you need to bridge to RN ASAP and...

ask yourself: why do you want to be a nurse anaesthetist?

and these are the same people (the daughter) who will then sue you, the doctor, the hospital and anyone else they can think of for "killing" their mother!

Wow, there are some nurses who are really uninformed about the status of their industry and our country as a whole.....

Alegria! It's all I wear - every day!

congratulations! will be taking mine in the new year - please, what is the "pvt trick"?

Note OP's poor spelling, typing, and punctuation. Says a lot about a person.

OP: keep up the enthusiasm! Best wishes on your journey! (I remember my "high" after my first clinical! We were not allowed to "do" anything - but I was on Cloud 9! I still love clinicals.) ...

why on earth do you care what they read?

Get over it. The nurses are there to do their job - which is PATIENT CARE. They are not there to teach you. That is what your instructor is paid to do. Students are a HUGE inconvenience to staff. ...

There are a LOT of unemployed new-grad LVNs in the SFV - so very many for-profit schools churning them out and too few jobs. Instead of focusing on how much they get paid, focus on how many job...

it's called SELF-CONTROL. nursing school and FB can exist at the same time if you prioritise correctly and are mature and responsible!

End of 3rd semester of LVN for me, one more semester left! Q: how's nursing school? A: love clinicals, enduring incomprehensible lectures & tests. It's not the material, it's the presenter! ...

What dating life? Whether nursing school or 12-hr+hospital shifts, dating is almost impossible. This is where FWBs come in handy......

Those only "in it for the money" are taking jobs away from those of us who WANT to be there.....and not giving the pts the same quality experience the rest of us do! I'm not saying they don't...

Alegrias are the best! Was wearing them daily even before nursing school! Just had to supplement my 2-dozen pairs with one in all white! Alegria Shoe Shop | Alegria Shoes on Sale | #1 Online...

On the question of study groups - what a complicated question! Successful study groups are wholly dependent on two things: 1. your personal learning style - not all of us learn the same. For...

if you could please also e-mail me the tables.....thanks so much! (IT will not let me PM you since I do not have enough posts......) avhpmc@gmail.com

There are LVN students in clinicals who need to read this!

I have to disagree with kbenson, I was an EMT and it gave me all sorts of bad "field" habits they are trying to drum out of me in nursing school!

Best wishes to you. We need more men in the profession. I have been hospitalised a great deal, and I've found that some of the best nurses are MURSES!!!!

Here in California you pretty much HAVE TO go to a private, for-profit trade-style school for an LVN and then try to bridge through to RN. Because of CA's horrible economy, the public junior...
