  2. Pregnant and nursing school

    nimopiba replied to Jennysweet163's topic in General Nursing

    Although I do not have experience with your specific school I did go through my LPN program pregnant. They took attendance by the hour and you were only allowed to miss a very limited number of hours...

  4. Goodwin College

    nimopiba replied to fittiff's topic in School, College Programs

  6. Ready to Apply CT Community Colleges- Nursing Program 2012

    nimopiba replied to CJ223's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    I know what you mean. I feel like my life is on hold until I know whether I got in or not. I feel like I can't make plans until I find out if I will be in school or not. I am trying not to become...

  7. I dont know if I'm cut out for this.

    nimopiba replied to TheLiberation's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I have to say that, yes, feeling inadequate and nervous are all parts of being a new nurse in any job no matter how long you have been a nurse. With that being said, if you didn't have a clue about...

  8. My Pity Party, Please RSVP

    nimopiba replied to ChristinP's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Sorry I'm late but I brought a bucket for all the tears! :) Since misery loves company I will tell you that I am pretty much in the same boat. On a happier note I haave had the same "lost the job to a...

  9. Ready to Apply CT Community Colleges- Nursing Program 2012

    nimopiba replied to CJ223's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    OK I will give you all a laugh at my expense. I opened an email on my phone from Gateway about half hour ago which read: "Sorry, the link was not working in your “ACCEPTANCE” email. I am attaching...

    nimopiba replied to CJ223's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    I transferred in all of my credits from Goodwin and Gateway accepted them all. I submitted my application the Friday before the deadline and all of my prereqs were listed as "met" by the 3rd week of...

  11. Is The Co$t Worth It?

    nimopiba replied to Etana85's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    I think you should reconsider enrolling. I was in the program when it was New England Tech. It costed about 16,000 which included all materials. The program was only 1 yr at the time (still expensive...

  12. Whites or Colored scrubs?

    nimopiba replied to UM Review RN's topic in General Nursing

    When I worked on a hospital unit I almost never wore white. Unless you never touch a patient there is a big chance that you are going to get something on you and any stain on white just jumps out and...

  14. For those who went from LPN to RN

    nimopiba replied to L&D_2b's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I went to school for my LPN with the intentions of working and going back to school for my RN. I think this is a popular option for moms. But if you will be going for 2 years anyway I would just say...

  15. LPN versus CMA

    nimopiba replied to PeepnBiscuitsRN's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    There are no CMAs in my outpatient clinic. Only LPNs and 1-2 RNs. In our company's other satellite sites there are LPN's, very few RN's and 2-3 APRNs then the docs, of course, but still no CMA's. I...

  16. LPN travel nursing

    nimopiba replied to cocobear1's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    To be honest with you I have never heard of LPN traveling nurses. Any traveling nurse I have ever met has been an RN. I would imagine that is because of their more expanded licensure. For instance I...
