I'm a LVN in Ca and a case manager. I was a floor nurse at a SNF, and I was promoted. When our old case manager left, my DON said she thought I would be great because of the way I interacted with residents and families. I had no idea about insurances...
Im from California so it might be different. I had graduated in 2010 and failed the NCLEX and got discouraged. I decided to try again in 2017 unsure and called the nursing board to ask about my situation and they said here it doesn’t matter how long ...

Have you started on the floor yet? I really got it after a couple of days while shadowing. The nurse I was shadowing really let me be hands on, and they gave me my log in on the last day of shadowing to finally start. It's not as scary as it seems! S...

So i had a week to watch videos, paperwork, a tour and a review on the computer system. Then it was a week of shadowing the nurse. I got to follow a couple nurses and it was good to see different methods and ways. They would allow me to do a medicati...

Why wouldn't they be able to? Hundreds of LVN's do it every day. I do it every shift twice a day and even though it is stressful and your being called around in different directions it is possible. Every day I try to improve and do my best. Sometimes...

How did you study? What helped me was Uworld and the app NCLEX mastery. I must have answered questions all day, every day and reviewed the ones I would get wrong. Don't give up! If you were able to pass school, you can pass this test!

I graduated in 2010 and failed the NCLEX the first time. I waited until this year, 2017 to take it again and I passed. I did about 200 questions a day for 2 months constantly with UWorld and LPN Mastery app. Any question I got wrong I would review an...

I'm in the same boat. I graduated in 2010 though and finally attempted it again on Dec 8. I got the good pop-up and on Breeze CA it is now giving me the option to pay $150.00 for my license. I think we just have to be patient but this sucks. I've bee...
