I'm currently in a FNP program where the faculty visits students once a semester while in their clinical rotation. The instructors watch you interview pt, obtain history, perform physical exam, assess and plan treatment. I was telling some fellow co...

Hi. There are several hospital systems in the Memphis area (Methodist/Lebonheur healthcare, Baptist, St. Francis) along with Regional one health (formerly the Med) and St. Jude Children's research hospital. I work for LeBonheur children's and I love ...

Hello to all. Does anyone know the number of applicants accepted to BSU FNP program each semester? Thanks in advance.

Hello to all. I was reading the posts and just wanted to say that the U of M is a good school to obtain your BSN. I also went to DSCC Covington and graduated their LPN-RN program before transferring to Memphis, so I know how it is there. I graduated ...

I am currently waiting for an acceptance letter from DSCC for the LPN to ASN fast-track. I was wanting to see if anyone has attended the nursing program there and if so what is it like. I am really excited and Im praying that everything will go well.

I am currently a GN in a perioperative program which started two weeks ago. My preceptor of 3 days has really made me angry and upset. She is a new RN but was a surgical tech for several years. I think that she doesn't want to be a preceptor but s...

The nurse educator at my job said that NCLEX randomly picks about 20 to 25 percent of those testing to complete the whole test. She was telling this to the GN's so we wouldn't freak out if we went past 75q but I thought I would ask the Allnurses comm...

I work for a facility called the Memphis Jewish Home. It is a five star facility located in Cordova and it is one of the BEST for nursing home employment. Check it out. http://www.memphisjewishhome.org/

I just was hired at Lebonheur as a new RN and the new grad pay is 21.00 an hour. I have been an LPN for 5 years so I received a little extra.

Congrats. I also accepted an offer to work in the Pediatric OR at a childrens hospital. I have to do a 6 month class/clinical orientation since Im a new grad but I am very excited. Good luck to you!!!

Hello everyone. I am starting my last semester in an LPN-RN program near Memphis, Tn. My husband has found about a position with the Irving Police Department that he is REALLY considering. I will not move anywhere until I graduate but I just wante...

Although I have been an LPN for 5 years, I will be a new RN grad. Are the hospitals "orientation friendly" or will I be on my own?

Well I had my orientation and they didn't elaborate on too much. Just talked about our schedules (3 days a week) and I have to take a math for nurses challenge exam so I wont have to take the course this semester. Classes start on the 30th and Im e...

Hey there. My orientation is August 22nd. They are supposed to go over everything required in the program. My daughter is 4 years old. Im hoping to get her in pre-k so i can focus on schoolwork during the week. I work on weekends but the word is that...

Yes. I went to TTC Nashville. My experience there was very good overall. I got married and had my daughter while in LPN school. If I can do it, YOU can too. I'm pulling for you. Good luck!:thankya:

Hello. I have been an LPN for 4 years now. I was just accepted into an lpn-rn program and I'm excited. I know that when in clinicals I'm just a student but I feel that being an lpn first will help with the transition. Good luck to everyone out there ...

Thats where I graduated with my practical nursing diploma back in 2003. It is a very good program and I learned a lot. It was tough at times but we had 22 students finish the program. Good luck with everything.

What school are you waiting to hear from? Hopefully you'll hear something soon. I used to live in Nashville so I know there are some excellent schools there (if thats where you still live). Thanks for the congrats.

Well I finally received my acceptance letter! I am soooo excited. I have to make a drive to Covington, Tn. for classes but Im sure it will be worth it. This is a grant funded program so I may get my expenses paid by the state. This is such a blessing...

Hello to everyone. I have been an LPN for 4 years. I am currently waiting for my acceptance letter to an LPN-ASN here in west Tn. I am 26 years old and I am so excited. I passed my ACE pn-rn. Now it's just a waiting game. Good luck to everyone out th...
