    LPN Charge Nurse

    I feel the same way. I just got my BSN and was an LPN for many years, and I still feel no different. Also, the scope of practice has changed for LPNs, allowing them to do things like push certain...

    What I find odd is that you can't find any of florida schools' NCLEX pass rates for

    North Palm College of Nursing - LPN to RN Online

    This school needs to get some type of nursing accreditation fast. Employers look at where you have gone to get your nursing education. If they don't have the staff, why open a nursing program without...

    Riggs College, FL - LPN to RN

    On the ACEN website, they're in the process of accreditation. So at least they're trying to get accredited. Also, this accreditation is voluntary, even though the ACEN and the CCNE are the gold...

    Nightingale College - transfer evaluation

    Hey guys, I want to give an update on my process. I took med surg HESI and passed, thankfully my entrance exams are done! I'm a little disappointed they didn't accept one of my classes which I thought...
  9. Not surprised at this. A lot of nursing programs across the country are on life support. My state shut down its last diploma program due to poor pass rates, and this school used to be among the best....

    Nightingale College - transfer evaluation

    I thought I couldn't access learner portal but was able to. So far nothing is showing about credit evaluation. So anxious to see what was accepted. I'll keep ya
  11. That sucks they would waste a persons time. It's like when you're called in for a second then third interview with no intention of hiring you. That happened to me many moons ago. So frustrating, I...

    Challenge NCLEX

    How does one fail a nursing course like med-surg and able to challenge the NCLEX? Just trying to wrap my head around that one. So a student who gets all the way to the end of their program but fails...

    Patients Filming You

    I was mainly speaking of the people on the other side of the camera like family. If they are viewing and listening to what is going on in the room. Could be an overstrectch but doesn't hurt to wonder...

    Patients Filming You

    This is kinda like a double-edged sword situation. I'm against filming of employees by patients and visitors like someone said here, you don't know where your image may end up (paraphrasing here). In...

    Changing Careers At 42

    You are absolutely correct about the accelerated programs. I was in one for asn and the amount of work was horrendous. We started out with an average size class of lpn's, then only to have 4 to...
