I am a new LPN as of Dec 2009. I applied before I took my NCLEX to a assisted living facility and they called me back about 3 weeks ago to see if I had gotten a license. I am in training for 2 more days. It only pays 16.00 hour but I am sticking w...

I am a new nurse in an asissted living facility (LPN) I work on the dementia side with 73 patients. I am the only nurse with 6 caregivers. I pass all meds, do charting, Dr orders, answer calls, assessments when someone falls, etc. Is this unsafe?...

I am a new LPN and have just completed orientation on the night shift-worked only 3 nights and I know it isn't for me-I was completely in a "zombie" like state during the day-I realize it was only 3 nights, but am not willing to "try" to get adjusted...

Hi Although I am not in your poition, I too haven't slept for several days due to starting a new job. I am an LPN, recent graduate, and an ALF hired me to orient to work on 2nd shift. After 2 days, the DON said the girl training me said I was too ...

Hi I am a 58 year old new LPN grad (August 08).. I needed a new career fast because previous job didn't pay well enough to support my self and two teens after a divorce. I was scared at first but did very well in school and was pleasantly surprised b...

:heartbeatcongratulations nurse!!!!

I'm sorry-but you will pass the next time!! Just remember to take one question at a time and use critical thinking-the test is intimidating-don't let it scare you. YOU CAN DO IT!! I used Saunders also and studied evey day several times a day-over (...

Thankyou for your words of much needed encouragement. I too, have been relentlessly applying for jobs, but most before I took my exam, with no response. Now that I have an official Licence number I think my resume will receive more attention. Good lu...

Thankyou!! I studies saunders edition 3 ALOT-and although the questions on NCLEX were presented in different way, I believed that helped as I passed 1st time with 85 q's. Good luck you will do it too! Just relax and think about each question as it...

hi and thankyou! I used saunders edition 3 for study although I didn't find the questions to be as they were presented in the book. But I suppose that helped because I did pass on the first try with 85 good luck to you all. you will pass.

I can't remember one question that was similar- I kept waiting for them-thought I had failed but I passed with 85 q's.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! I just found out I passed yesterday-I thought I had failed because I felt I didn't know most of it-really hard questions-mostly priority and sata, but I passed with 85-whew. Now we can get jobs!!

I love crocs, and wear the "real" ones, but yeah, if you step on something wet you will slip-but they are the best for your feet and back support.

I took the NCLEX yesterday, Dec 3, 2008 and received my results at 11:20 this am!!Dec 4,2008 I passed with 85 questions.

I took my NCLEX yesterday-got my results today and I passed! I know you will too. I was a wreck-Ithought I had failed for sure-I had 85 questions and I honestly can't remember any of them! Hang in there-I know it's hard but have faith.

I took the nclexpn today and am so nervous! It shut off at 85 q's-The test seemed really hard and I kept thinking if only I had a few more questions so I could "prove" myself. Has anyone failed this with shutoff at 85 questions? I keep reading 99%...
