I took my LPN thru Norquest in Edmonton about 5 years ago. I did all the course work via distance and travelled and stayed in Edmonton for clinicals. I found the clinicals were excellent and I couldnt have received better exposure. I received a job before I was finsihed the course. Great experience, great instructors! Good luck

Right now the nurses in my facility (including me) are working one month of each shift. We work 8's. So, schedule looks like 5 nights, 2 off, 5 nights, 3 off,5 nights, 3 off, 5 nights, 3 off and then I switch to afternoons for one month, then days. We are thinking about changing to 12 hr shift, 2 days(7a-7p) 2 nights (7p-7a) with five days off and every 6 weeks we would get 6 days off. Our facility is more long term care for mental health and adictions. Can anybody see any disadvantages? are we looking to get burnt out? Any advantages (besides the obvious)? Thanks
