I myself am an LPN. In my area no oncology specific hospital would look at me let alone hire me. It's RN's only. Go for your RN especially if that is the field you want, good luck, either way it is...

I hear you on the hubby front, good luck being sent your way :)

Wow, those systems sound awesome, esp churchsgirl. All we use is the intercom system through our phones in the building. If you're in a pt's room you can't hear it. Which is quite a pain when there...

So sweet, thank you for sharing.

This is the reason I dislike overnight lol! :)

ugh disgusting.

You can also borrow NCLEX books to study from at the library. That way you can save money!

I am an LPN and I tried to get a job anywhere after months of looking for a job. Every time I tried for a "lower" position I was told I had too much experience which was absurd because I had no...

I plan to go on for my RN, but I also have lofty goals that have nothing to do with money. I like the education and there will be more jobs available. You are correct though everyone is having a...

Well I just got my first job. I was so excited. They told me during the interview they had weekends available. Part-time, which was fine until full-time came available somewhere. They called today to...

I just had my first interview last week and had my second yesterday, needless to say it was the scariest thing. I went over common nursing questions that I found through this site. On my first...

I graduated almost the last day in January got my ATT about the second week of February, online by the way. The only day in february to take the test was the next day so I scheduled it for the second...

I just graduated from an LPN program in January and I've been looking for a job since then. Most places in Philly want at least a year or more of experience so if you could volunteer or try to work...

In Philadelphia, we can D/C IV's as well.

We have an IV course which teaches us everything you need to know about starting, maintaining IVs etc. But no phlebotomy, although our teacher is going to try to include some info for us because we...

I've had this happen to me quite often at clinicals. Just keep doing your best, it's really nice when you change these nurse's opinion of students. That said, it's not always going to happen. We had...

Well it depends, are the ones for theory comfortable enough to be on your feet all day long? If so then use the same ones if not buy a new pair, ones that will keep your feet happy.

We have been all over the place or our clinicals. The first couple of weeks we went back and forth with two nursing homes, a hospital, and an acute care facility. Now we have maternity which is only...

I'm very sorry this happened. Some people are just small minded, hope things get better for you.

Wow, some of you are really dedicated. I travel less than a mile to school, and my furthest clinical I believe is maybe 5-10 miles away. I only make a guess because we haven't gotten a list of where...

Ok you all make me feel awful. I study maybe a couple hours a week if its a midterm or final i go all out but otherwise just usually read through it. With that being said though, everyone is...

In Pa we can work pretty much where ever and do almost everything. The one thing we cannot do is push iv meds and I don't think we can do pic lines, but otherwise we're able to do everything an RN...

We have to wear green scrubs to class with white shoes and if it gets cold we can wear a white only shirt under the scrubs and for clinicals all white everything. Should be fun. :)

Wow, that's awful. I'm really sorry that this happened to you.
