   MollyLPN replied to bustthewave's topic in General Students

   I am so happy to read that this has turned into a positive experience for you by asking for advice and using your own wonderful insight to figure out what you need to do. Getting a nice clinical instruction changes a lot too, so I'm glad you had tha...

2. Ever had a nursing instructor hate you?

   MollyLPN replied to bustthewave's topic in General Students

   kittah (love the name, btw), my school was considered to be the best in the area. There were several LPN schools in my area, and this one is considered to have the highest standards. It received a prestigious state award while I was there (that none...

3. Tips for passing clinical tests?

   MollyLPN replied to jerep's topic in General Students

   Youtube was such a blessing to me! I watched videos over and over, and practiced so many different things. For bedmaking I practiced on my own bed, and would even have my husband lie in it (or my poor stuffed teddy bear, who ended up being the reci...

4. My Microbiology Teacher told me I can't become a Nurse

   MollyLPN replied to louis345's topic in General Students

   Your Micro teacher is an abuser. The nursing professional field in teaching seems to be loaded with them (even though, as noted by previous posts, she's hardly a nurse). I read somewhere that theorized it comes from nursing starting in a military ...

5. what should i do?

   MollyLPN replied to eternalbride's topic in General Nursing

   You could go to vo-tech school to become an LPN, then bridge to the RN program. Some schools such as community colleges have a LPN-RN bridge program, and Excelsior* college has an LPN-RN bridge online that is accepted in Florida. If you go to a pub...

7. Phlebotomy class question

   MollyLPN replied to MollyLPN's topic in General Nursing

   Thanks for responding. I need to get a job before I can start RN school (I plan on Excelsior). I have to start bringing some money into my family. I thought that these certifications would help me get a job in home health or something. Nobody seems ...

8. Ever had a nursing instructor hate you?

   MollyLPN replied to bustthewave's topic in General Students

   I just started by finding out her information on the state license site, then Google. I placed her name in the police records, and also real estate records. There are sites and services that do background checks too, but I decided not to go there. ...

9. Phlebotomy class question

   MollyLPN posted a topic in General Nursing

   I was thinking of taking a phlebotomy class to increase my knowledge and employable skills. In my state a LPN can draw blood if she's certified. I called the school and they said that they give the training to make me eligible for the certificate, bu...

10. Misdemeanor for assault???

    MollyLPN replied to Angelfire3's topic in Criminal

    Maybe you should let your school know right away. It is on record and if they find out from another source, and not you first, it won't look good. I know we were required to report anything like that immediately. I had an arrest many years ago, wa...

11. Ever had a nursing instructor hate you?

    MollyLPN replied to bustthewave's topic in General Students

    You probably won't have to deal with many of the other students soon, as they will probably fail out. This will cause fewer students in the class, and more attention drawn to you. This may or may not be a good thing. I was hated by two of my teache...

13. I just found out... One of the nurses I work with is

    MollyLPN replied to lpnwkids's topic in LPN/LVN

    That's cool, thank you for explaining and clarifying. The print media is indeed difficult at times to express thoughts the way we would like. It will be interesting if you get to talk to your co-worker.

14. I just found out... One of the nurses I work with is

    MollyLPN replied to lpnwkids's topic in LPN/LVN

    I did say I don't think she would be a good nurse to a pagan patient... ....IF...(and notice the big qualifier)... she had a negative attitude to towards pagans. I also didn't claim she did have a negative attitude, I don't know her. I also said th...

15. Do they have to know? I need help!!!

    MollyLPN replied to RNOTODAY's topic in Recovery

    I really don't think you should tell the BON, or your doctor. Try to quit on your own first. Go to AA and/or NA and work the program. One of the steps says to makes amends "except when to do so will harm yourself or others". You don't have to har...
