KelsLPN

Thank you all so much for your input! I’m scared but I really think I’ll regret not going, just need to put all my fears aside.

So I’ve been an LPN going on 4 years and absolutely love what I do. I’m set to start an accelerated LPN-RN program in the fall and am having second doubts about doing it. Not that I don’t think I could get through the program but just the transitioning from an LPN to RN is a big role change and I’m scared honestly. And I’m really scared that I won’t like the change or I’ll regret not going...... i need advice

What CEUS do I need to compete for 2018 inWV? Is there a list somewhere or do I need to take certain credits?

I've been an LPN well over an year and I took a clinic job right out of graduation. I was there for a year and loved what I did. The only con to the job was that I felt I wasn't compensated for all the extra work I did on the job so I started looking into other nursing opportunities out there and got a job at a long term nursing facility, figuring I could learn new new nursing skills and have a more flexible schedule working 12 hour shifts. Well I've been at the long term care facility for a month now and honestly regret leaving my clinic job. I know there's a reason I looked beyond the clinic job I had but I don't know what to do now. I feel like the LTC facility I work at is shady at some points they only care about the business aspect of the medical business and not about the actual patient care. What should I do stick it out till I'm at least there for 6 months to see if it gets any better or start seeking other employment? I feel stupid for even feeling like this or not knowing what to do. I love nursing but sometimes I just feel like I'm not cut out at some stuff and working the LTC facility has me questioning even if I want to be a nurse at all anymore. Advice would be much appreciated.
