Just got hired as a Lvn for a large elementary school. In the interview they said there would be two of us. Now after a lot of paperwork and such the story changed.
I love busy. I love kids. My experience has been 8+ years of Urgent Care (3yrs) and Pediatric Home health (2yrs) as lvn. More past medical experience not licensed.
Being new to the field i have bizarre questions. Anticipating fears of not knowing enough on presentation to a child, or protocol. (Suggestions to calm kids fears n tears)
I feel $20 hourly is a bit low on the pay scale being a senior lvn as i presently make more ($30 w/out benefits). But i am researching and studying for the beginning of the school year August 21 my first day.
Finally to my point::::
Is CSNO worth the $800 membership? I mean $800 for one year membership but i just want the class that's a five hour drive away? $800 isn't in a family budget, getting the hubby to sign off on this could risk some serious arguments. I'm so desperate for a school nurse boot camp.
Also, I'm the type that believes you have to set big goals. So is studying for the National School Nurses Certification a good investment for wage increase? Hire elsewhere? A feather? A title with little outside medical understanding? Great knowledge only?
Any tips for a seasoned vet who's feeling sheepishly all of the sudden would be much appreciated.
