  1. What makes more sense??

    sassiebaz posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    I know Im looking into the future a little but.....I am trying to decide if when I'm done with my LPN program, if I do want to continue to get my RN, do I just go to somewhere like apollo and get in...

  2. What makes more sense??

    sassiebaz replied to sassiebaz's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Oh, yes, that may make a difference. If I can possibly get my employer to send me through that sounds like the way to

  3. Agency Nursing in Houston, Tx

    sassiebaz replied to blackpearl2236's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Sometimes an agency will want 1 year of experience, but then some don't. They just want you to be licensed. Just make some calls and ask. I don't live in that area so it may be different

  4. Relocating..visiting in July. Buckeye??

    sassiebaz replied to flowerchick's topic in Arizona Nursing

    No offense to surprise, I know a ton of people have moved out that way. However, isn't there basically one way in and one way out?? That's the reason we didn't move out that way. Also, the schools...

  5. I'm a nurse not a "Male Nurse"

    sassiebaz replied to suanna's topic in Men in Nursing

    Although I cannot relate (as Im female and not yet a nurse) I can only imagine how irritating that must be. I think the name "nurse" just resonates in most people as a female? Maybe just years of...

  6. Relocating..visiting in July. Buckeye??

    sassiebaz replied to flowerchick's topic in Arizona Nursing

    It really depends on what you are looking for. I'm partial to the "westside" but I personally would not move to buckeye. For me it's just too far out there and seems so desolate. I hear there is alot...

  7. LPN's in Arizona

    sassiebaz replied to Kashia's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Apollo has an LPN

  8. "male" scrub top patterns

    sassiebaz replied to jb2u's topic in Men in Nursing

    I didn't read all the posts but, what about sewing a pocket over the left side of the chest that had a little design on it like a guitar or a leopard or a fancy car?? That would be cool(IMHO)....

  9. Best/Worst States for LPN opportunities

    sassiebaz replied to TurboJamer13219's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Yep, that's right! Arizona has a huge nursing shortage but no shortage on programs. Well, let me re-phrase that....There are many programs in this area, LPN and RN however the waitlist are growing but...

    sassiebaz replied to Kashia's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Where did you get your training, if you don't mind me

  11. Need Help

    sassiebaz replied to ariannasmom's topic in Arizona Nursing

    So far what you say is correct. Although, when my mom went to Utah to get her training and license she could get reciprocity here but needed someone to say, on her behalf, that she has worked as a CNA...

  13. Phoenix Baptist RN program.....

    sassiebaz posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    Does anyone have info or experience in this program at Phoenix Baptist? I have had a hard time getting someone over the phone to answer questions or even call me back. Why does it seem to not be as...

  14. LPN License

    sassiebaz replied to Victoria74's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I would definately contact the state board on that one! I mean if it isn't on your record though? But, how do you really know? Was it a misdemeanor?? I'd still give the AZ state board a call, they...

  15. Phoenix Baptist RN program.....

    sassiebaz replied to sassiebaz's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Is it not set up like the "Block" system? I would think that because you still have to take the major pre-req's it would be interchangeable? Also, I wonder if I could come in as an LPN? I do...

  16. Role Call...California LVN's

    sassiebaz replied to DeeDee143's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    You may want to consider the LVN-BSN...I know University Of Phoenix may be getting that program in your area and I believe alot of it may be online. I go back and forth with what to do once Im an LPN...

  17. Role Call...California LVN's

    sassiebaz replied to DeeDee143's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    There are plenty of LPN jobs here in AZ. Few in Hospitals though. Cost of living is reasonable although the pay could be better. You can easily start around $20 an hour and maybe even $24. There are...

  18. How many of you have multiple jobs besides being an LVN?

    sassiebaz replied to Predaking's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

  19. The reality for LPN/LVN for a new graduate

    sassiebaz replied to Bala Shark's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I seriously don't think I could. I still have a little one at home, and even when Im dead dog tired from a restless nights sleep I cannot fall asleep during the day for nothin! I don't know why. I...

  20. The reality for LPN/LVN for a new graduate

    sassiebaz replied to Bala Shark's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I have been concerned about this exact thing. A friend of mine works nights and she barely does anything. Ia sked her about this and she if you work days you deal with Dr.s, the family of the...

  21. How many of you have multiple jobs besides being an LVN?

    sassiebaz replied to Predaking's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I'm sorry, I didn't mean that for the RN's and Dr.'s. I meant MA's and LPN's but I was also commenting on the fact that I have seen and few RN's and Docs smoking as well(fewer Dr.'s though). But even...

  22. How many of you have multiple jobs besides being an LVN?

    sassiebaz replied to Predaking's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Talk about getting priorities straight??? How come every job I have had (3) in the medical field more than half of the nurses and medical personell SMOKE???? This includes RN's and Doctors. Did they...

  23. How many of you have multiple jobs besides being an LVN?

    sassiebaz replied to Predaking's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Why would that defeat the purpose of being a nurse? She isn't hurting anyone! I'm not saying I agree with being a stripper but I'd like to know the logic behind your

  24. Apollo Nursing School

    sassiebaz replied to Mayaquice's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Wow, I was told you had to have pre-re's. That's what happens when you get second hand info I guess. There are going to be 2 other Tech schools implementing RN programs in the next year or so. Everset...

  25. Need advice on LPN program at Estrella Mountain Community College

    sassiebaz replied to azmistie's topic in Arizona Nursing

    FYI......if you want to go to Southwest skills center for your LPN, you need to come up with around $2000 to put down. They require that before any financial aid is granted or anything. I opted to...
