Thank you so much i am feeling better today, i am trying to pull myself out, and looking into other jobs i can do with my physical limitations, i have made an appointment for a psychsiatrist. I also talked with a friend who is a social worker. Thank you again. Alicet

I think i have finally hit the bottom, i am very depressed. I sometimes think of ways of ending all to figure i am to scared to try it what will happen if it doesn't work. I am in so much pain, i have chronic pain from my neck and shoulder injury, i have nerve damage that makes it feel like i am on fire most of the time, my fingers are numb with pin and needle sensations i find myself sad and crying most of the time, i haven't worked a job since August of 2009. I can't do nursing anymore i feel like a failure, hopeless, helpless, and lost. I dont know what kind of work i can do now i was an LVN, but i cant lift more than 25 pounds constantly. My case was settled so i have no doctor no insurance and no job. i was on meds but i dont have those no more my Lyrica, Ambien, and Hydrocodone. I dont sleep but if lucky 3 to 5 hours a night, i have got into a mess. Sorry for bothering you with my problems. Thanks, Alice

I have been seeing positions for LVN case managers utilization review lvns how do you get the certifications or experience to apply for these positions is there anyone out there that knows?

I am a LVN trying to go with a travel agency working through the CA state prisons, my speciality is Med Surg, and LTC. Thanks for the info. I have been waiting almost amonth for a gate clearence and it never arrives acoording to my recruiter, he says it takes awhile but now I think I might be getting the runaround just to keep me on board in case something happens to come in.

Thanks for the info, I have been waiting for a gate clearance so I don't really know at this point, I am starting to wonder if I am getting the run around from the agency.:angryfire

I work for a company that is hiring lpn's for correctional work in the jails. If that is interesting let me know I will give you the contact info for them.

I do know of one company that is looking for travelers right now for CA state prisons. Pay etc sounds good.

I am a new lpn.

Don't worry it will be OK Nevada

I am going to try just that thank you

I am in Reno, but it just doesn't seem like anyone wants to give me the time of day. I applied at Renown, and I went to different skilled nursing homes, applied at the VA.

I am a new grad and everywhere I went looking for a job they told me they didn't have time to train. How do I go about getting exerience to get a job if noone will give me the chance?

In NV, it is the same I keep getting the we don't have time to train you routine

congratulations all of you

The Nclex just wants to make sure by 90% that you know what you are doing. There is no percentage grade they will give you, you don't know when you leave the test if you passed or not. It takes about 2 weeks for them to send you a pass or not pass.
