   Thank you for your input. So I could work even though my license hasn't arrived in the mail yet. I just sent to money and the papers.

2. New Nurse..just wondering....

   kaydrian posted a topic in LPN/LVN

   Now, my CPR certification expired a little while ago. I just found out that I passed my nclex and I have sent for my license. Can I look for jobs and expect to get hired? Would I have to renew my CPR cert first? I just want to work already.

3. No experience!

   kaydrian posted a topic in LPN/LVN

   I'm a grad LVN. Still waiting for my results abt nclex in mail. I'm starting to worry because I really have no experience in health care at all other than the fact that my son was born with a serious CHD. My work experience consists of a newspaper de...

   kaydrian replied to BaguioBoy's topic in NCLEX

   6 FRIGGEN WEEKS!!!! That is madness! I took mine on Oct 25th and I will be so angry if I have to wait longer than 4 weeks! I feel for you! Hope everyone gets their results sooner than later.

5. Calling all LPNs?? What is and is not in your Scope of Practice compared to an RN?

   kaydrian replied to Nrs_angie's topic in LPN/LVN

   I think it all depends on your state and the place in which you work. I haven't had the opportunity to work as an lvn yet ( still waiting my results). As a student though, I was always told PO, IM, Sub Q, and Intradermal. An LVN can be IV certified b...

   In Maslow's heirachy of needs physical needs comes before all else. Then I believe it's safety, Love and belonging, and then self- actualization.

   My nclex pn cost 200 dollars. I was told by a fellow classmate that when you passed you will be required to pay an additional 100-150$ for your license. I can't remember the exact amount. So hopefully I'll find out in about 5 more days the results an...

   I was the baby of the class. I was 19 when I finished lpn and turned 20 2 months after completion.

9. Bummed abt Nclex.

   kaydrian replied to kaydrian's topic in LPN/LVN

   Yeah, honestly I'm doing much better now. I rarely think about it now lol. I'm so preoccupied with worry about how hard it is to find a job as a new nurse with no experience in health care that I have no time to think about the nclex lol. So the resu...

    kaydrian replied to BigB's topic in NCLEX

    In response to Diahni. Yes the nursing process, maslow's, and the ABC's. LIVE THOSE LOL. Your patient always comes first in any questions. For example... pt is complaining of SOB, what do you do first? Fowlers, check o2 sat, or auscultate. You stabil...

    kaydrian replied to BigB's topic in NCLEX

    Ya know, I was so anxious going into the test and then felt so much emotion coming out of the test that it really was a big blurr for me. I can honestly say I remember about 5 questions exactly. Other than that I know I got a lot on diet. LIke with c...

12. I just took the NCLEX - PN, my thoughts.

    kaydrian replied to BigB's topic in NCLEX

    I felt the same way that you did! Surprisingly though I was very relaxed taking the test and flew through the questions. I got tons of priority, select all that apply, and the correct order ones. Sucked because I am really crappy at those ones. I stu...

    For four months. CRAZY! This is so ridiculous. They are going to cause our fellow nursing students to die with anticipation!
