I failed nursing school by a decimal, with two and a half months to graduation. Partly due to being screwed over by a ghetto, insecure, vindictive instructor with an inflated ego. I don't have time...

Has anyone failed partly because you were screwed over by an instructor? How'd you overcome it? Did you succeed second time around?

Hello. I was in danger of failing the same class in nursing school a second time. I want to be a nurse so badly, and so I became depressed and attempted suicide. I told my school that I had a panic...

Screw ignorant folks who don't realize that the "N" in LPN/LVN stands for NURSE! The next time someone questions your ability, tell them "If I'm ever around when you're having a medical emergency,...

LPN/LVN school is NURSING school. So it is very challenging. Many RN's who have not gone to LPN school will say it's NOT nursing school. A nurse is a nurse all day long. It's hard and I've had many...

If possible, I would just wait until after the baby is born, and you've finished breast feeding. I know you love what you do, but make sure your decision is safe for the baby. You can always do it...

Is that online? I'm planning to go ahead and start taking general prereq's as soon as have my LPN. I have 6 months to go.

Ok, thanks. I appreciate your reply! :)

hello all. i'm elle, an lpn student at ecpi, charlotte, nc. i was wondering if anyone knew of any lpn to bsn or lpn to rn bridge programs that accept a bridge from ecpi. the state does not matter, as...

Well, I don't know MUCH about this. But I've met some LPN's who travel between nursing homes within the same state. Maxim is an agency that I've heard several nurses say pays well. Not sure where...

there are many portable pulse ox machines (no bigger than a mini stapler) that do not cost hundreds. the nursing home i'm currently doing clinicals at has one. key word being one. lol. but anyway,...

Just don't tell anyone. Everyone's gonna want to borrow (and not return.) Before you know it, you'll have defeated the whole point of buying your own stuff. The little pulse ox will be easy to keep...

I'm in my 2nd clinical rotation and I find myself doing more "fishing" than assessing, and it irritates the crap out of me!! I'm planning to buy my own BP cuff, thermometer, and pulse ox upon...

Thanks "Havin a party." I'm optimistic about graduation

LPN's who work at hospitals are not GENERALLY well paid, and in some cases, you cannot even use your title. You're called a "clinical asst." I've done much research and spoken to people personally....

I'm a student, and one annoying thing I've noticed is that there's like one pulse ox that no one can find and like two bp machines and thermometers for the whole floor. I don't like having to spend...
