Hi group, I am starting clinicals for the LPN program 3/2 (well supposed to anyways) but I never started my CastleBranch background/medical check. I have a test that I need to pass anyway before I can start the clinicals, and it’s a dosage exam that I failed once.....otherwise you have to retake the class and at this time I don’t have the funds to retake a class at a private school. The Castle branch deadline is tomorrow(21st) so I am delayed anyways. I wanted to take the test first before I spend 150.00 on Castlebranch. I am fine with starting my clinicals in another semester, I would just be devastated if I failed the test and I just paid 150.00 for a BGC I won’t utilize....anytime soon. Any input or criticism is welcomed.

Thank you all, I guess I just asked the question for reassurance, haha. I took the hospital position and yes, the experience will be valuable when I apply to nursing school! Thanks guys!

I am a CNA and went on an interview for a job . I walked in knowing that this particular nursing home sucks and probably the team work environment is non-existent. The interviewer basically said the place sucks and they are working on things to get it better. The distance from my home to this place is 1 mile. The other interview I went on is the job I really want and also got hired for. It's in a hospital, and and the environment is not problematic, but the drive is about 1 hour and 25 minutes 3 days a week. Has anyone been faced with this type of situation? I'd rather drive far than to deal with issues daily, even though the first job is close to my home.
