Have you worked in mental health before? Because it takes alot of patience and humor. I've been in the field for 12 yrs, started as bachelor's level social worker, then LPN, now just graduated from RN program. I love this field and encourage you to check it out---it's totally different than med-surg nursing. Talk to other nurses you meet to find a good facility to work for---there are good and bad ones. Where are u from? I live in tampa and could give you info for this area if you like! Good Luck!

just graduated from hcc-dale mabry....you never need to wear your uniform to classes only to clinicals!! good luck! ms. henderson is the best instructor!! also recommend for clinicals the following.....mr. keith hall(med-surg), kathyrn smith(peds, NP3), vicki vawter(ob, NP3) HAVE FUN!!!STUDY HARD!!!
