Lynn's Workshop VS Tina's Workshop

Published

Okay, I am debating between the two. But Lynn is making it hard b/c there is nowhere on here site where she lays out a schedule for your time during the workshop, and no where that states what is covered, but Tina does here:

I'm not making this a long post so can ya'll give me some input.

i am taking lynn's in january. the only reason ( i have heard great things about her) is because it is in dallas and i don't have to travel but only 1.5 hours.

I don't know if you're going to find anyone who has been to both to really give you a good comparison. I went to Lynn's workshop and it was fabulous, but yes, it's two days whereas Tina's is five. Personally I couldn't afford airfare to Cali, plus five days of hotel/food. Lynn's workshop was way more accessible for me, and I really feel that I now have the tools to succeed at the CPNE ... sounds cheesy, but there it is. :D

Can ya'll tell me what Lynn covers? On her site someone had a testimonial saying that they didn't need a 5 day workshop teaching assessments that they already knew how to do (I presume Tina's). But what was on her schedule seemed comprehensive to me (which I want). Not just something that will cover labs.

She covers probably what you'd expect: careplanning, documentation, and the lab stations over the two days. This is the only workshop I've ever attended that didn't seem to drag ... we were getting so much good information that the time just flew! I was not bored for even a second. :) LOL

Thanks Lunah. Do you know if Lynn is currently practicing as an RN? I need to run my numbers, but I'm leaning towards Tina. It just seems like it will be more comprehensive, and I like that she includes the practice PCS. Although I got the impression that Lynn doesn't maybe, I should ask before I assume, so does she?
