  1. Kicked out of LPN Program

    With your lack of empathy, I certainly would fear for your patients and would not want to be a terminal patient under your care as I'd be afraid that you'd put a pillow over my face. You are not a nice person.
  2. Kicked out of LPN Program

    No, my life has steadily gone down hill from there. I returned to my old profession after semi-healing, only to get severely injured, need extensive neck surgery, and then get let go after the requisite time that they wouldn't get busted for throwin...
  3. Kicked out of LPN Program

    Because money isn't everything. I wanted to help people. Cheers, Jeff
  4. Kicked out of LPN Program

    I just wonder if the other male in the program, who is a minority, and has flunked 4 tests and had to re-take them, should be caring for patients.
  5. Kicked out of LPN Program

    I was not discriminated against per se. Even though the rules are selectively enforced, I'm not going to charge discrimination. However, if I don't get a timely refund, and a letter noting the reason of my discharge from the program, then I will bu...
  6. Kicked out of LPN Program

    I'm through with my career as a prospective nurse. I gave it my best shot, and through actions beyond my control, was kicked out. What really upsets me is that I gave up a $75,000 a year job to pursue nursing. I must have had holes in my head.
  7. Kicked out of LPN Program

    They said that they would refund my tuition. I still don't have the check in my hands yet. I see the other side of the coin too, as for having to be able to give care to the patients. I also see a class where the rules are inscribed in stone, but...
  8. Kicked out of LPN Program

    I've been in my LPN program for a couple of months. In my program, I was the senior citizen at 49 years of age. As our program is very rigorous and moves at a fast pace, I was able to excell in the program due to my maturity. In fact, I kept my av...
  9. Just checking to see how LPN/LVN classes are going.

    We started August 8th. and have tests on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. So far, we've had a lot of work. We have assignments to turn in everyday, and I'm averaging 4 hours of homework a night. Cheers, Jeff
  10. Are Hospitals Fazing out the LVN's in your area??

    You are a lifesaver. Thank you very much. Is the A&P final really taken from questions from the tests and pre-tests? I am under the impression that the questions are only taken from the multiple choice questions. Any help will be greatly appr...
  11. Are Hospitals Fazing out the LVN's in your area??

    ] What LPN program are you in, or were you in? I'm starting at SCTI August 8th. I'm doing the online courses right now to get them out of the way.
  12. What was the cost of your LPN school

    My school is a Vo-Tech and it's $3300 for the course. Books etc. run about $700 extra.
  13. Are there any nures/students with another degree

    I have a BS in chemistry with a minor in math. I'm 48 and just started my LPN program. I chose the LPN as I'm only able to take a year off until we need some $$$$ rolling in. I will transition to an RN program after I have completed my LPN and hav...
