  1. Wages in Louisville

    WOW!! These pay rates scare the crap out of me:eek:. I am currently an LPN with over 15 years experience. I hope to graduate Spencerian's LPN to RN program next September. But I am worried about the pay rates because I already make almost $21 as an L...

    glow worm: ok, it doesn't matter to me if these q's were asked b/c of an assignment. they seem like valid discussion material to me, and probably lots of students would like to know the answers. below are my guesses -- can you judge/correct them? tha...
  8. Does anyone else ever get tired of "stupid" nurses?

    Sometimes I really have to wonder how these nurses passed their boards. It never ceases to amaze me how clueless some nurses are. I can now understand why we have house supervisors. The really sad thing is the nurse who "went to lunch" was one of the...
  9. I swear I am so tired of nurses that can't think for themselves and don't think for themselves. I am the weekend house supervisor for my LTC facility. This means I am in charge of pretty much everything. I love my job don't get me wrong. I just don't...
