    geekchic replied to thebestmom's topic in General Students

    just an FYI obtaining your LPN isn't for someone less intellegent. LPN is hard so I wouldn't say "just her LPN" that is one of my biggest pet peeves!

13. "Thumping" out the door....?

    geekchic replied to optimist's topic in General Nursing

    In New Jersey Paramedics can declare on the scene but once CPR is started by EMS (that is to say EMT-Basics) CPR cannot be stopped because that would be patient abandoment.

14. RN to paramedic?

    geekchic replied to SneakySnake's topic in Emergency

    In New Jersey if you have an RN you can challenge the EMT-B test (written and clinical) but you need a bridge program for paramedic.
