I am a 37 y/o LPN and am working now with a goal of BSN or higher. One thing for some of you to keep in mind is that there are jobs out there for nurses with computer backgrounds working with & building clinical systems for healthcare.
I have had to "special order" scrubs, too. When it took the place over 6 weeks to get them, I decided they didn't want my business and didn't buy them. It is tough, because women have hundreds of them to choose from-we are very limited. I have quit buying from stores and now buy mine at smartscrubs.com. Check them out! Steve
