I started fresh out of LPN school. I love my job, sometimes I feel like a sitter, but just when I think I am not getting enough something happens and I feel like I am back in school learning something new. Sometimes resources are limited, I carry a wide variety of books with me and we always have our nurses on call. I work with a wonderful group of people whom I can call at anytime. Handling death sometimes can be trying especially if there is alot of family dyanmics, but overall there are more positives about my job than negatives. I handle Supportive Care which means I am never usually with a family more than once just for the fact I get called in near the end. But it is truly rewarding when the family comes to you afterwards and says "Thank you, I don't know what we would have done without you here".

I have been working for 6 months as a Supportive Care LPN for a Hospice in KY. It is very rewarding but sometimes I too feel like a sitter. I worry everyday if I am getting enough experience. I work at night so I can study alot while I am working towards my RN. Our pay ranges from $15-18, mileage and lots of other perks too.

i am working for hospice of hope. i have had a great week so far. i am very please with the staff and i love the one on one care i get to give.

i just took a position this week. not real sure what i am supposed to being doing but i guess thats part of my learning experience. it seems like there was so much stress in school but noe everything is a little to laid back. i am sure this feeling is only temporary, so i guess i'll enjoy it while i can. i just feel out of place......

Congrats everybody in Class II. We are awesome. To the ones who are left to test, YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!!
