Where in Texas do GVN's make that? In a small town like Del Rio GVN make $16-18 dollars an hour.

That is so true. I always say, What am I doing that is unethical? Should I throw the first stone? Would I want my co-workers nursing or not to be scrutnizing my work or work ethics. As a new nurse myself I can say, how do you have time to be watching other coworkers personal life? I have my own life to watch and be worried about. Just some peices of advise... Do your job. Watch yourself. I am sure that in your past you must have some skeletons in your closet as well. I dont think that is your first job and if is well then there is a lot to learn. One last thing the golden rule... Cover your ass**quimo!

Hello siri, :smilecoffeeIlovecof I have a question I was almost finished with a bachelor in Social Science but headed for nursing instead. I am very interested in Forensic Nursing and that is reason why i switched careers. But there are no generic entry into the nursing field here in this border town with Mexico in Texas so I had to go back and start from scratch (Del Rio). I have just started my second semester for LVN/LPN and have applied for RN starting next fall. Am I going in the right direction? Should I finish my bachelor? I just needed 13 classes to finish the bachelor degree. Please advise.

Hello, My name is Karen from Texas, four years ago (your age) I started school to be an RN, but there was a problem, I was a single parent of two little ones and had to work to pay for a mortgage and a car payment plus bills etcccccc......... anyway, :uhoh21: I changed my major and instead seeked a business degree. I graduated in last year with an Associate and was half way to a Bachelor degree in Social Science. But when I was up on the podium something happened, when the LPN walked the stage, I realized that I did not want to graduate with the Business degree even though I had honers, I wanted to be up there with the Nurses. I had been in school for three years but I realized that this was not what I wanted to do. So what did I do half way through the Bachelor degree? I left my Social Science degree and a year later here I am in nursing school right back to where I started, wanting to be a nurse. I reconciled with my husband and we are still hanging in there. There have been hard times but if u want to do something follow your heart. Last week I justed turned 30! (I would have a BSN by now).:mortarboard:
