    junebug62 posted a topic in Virginia Nursing

    So now I am doing a little shopping and such. It seems as though Jtcc has a every other weekend (Fri, SAt and Sun) class set up. Is this staight instruction? Is it with the Commonwealth on line...

    junebug62 replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    I so agree with TeleRNer. Years ago we hung a wreath on the door, stopped our clocks, covered mirrors and wore black for a solid year. There may have been something to that. Today I see people...

    junebug62 replied to chnc1024's topic in Ob/Gyn

  7. NCLEX-Big Picture question?????

    junebug62 posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    This is not meant to be anything but what it is; a real question. Maybe a philosophical one at that. Why do I see so many posts with students having NO idea if they passed the NCLEX? Yes, I am just...

  8. Why dont YOU wear a helmet??

    junebug62 replied to Crux1024's topic in General Nursing

    UMMMM, I have to agree. Choice or not. I would not call myself safely conscious if I hardly ever wore a seatbelt. It's the same thing I see all the time in the summer......really daily: adults...

  9. Why dont YOU wear a helmet??

    junebug62 replied to Crux1024's topic in General Nursing

    Yea, my hubby and I are friends with another married couple. They are funeral directors, and embalmers. Point being, when ever we go out with them and we see someone on a motorcycle, helmet or NOT,...

  10. Will LPN's ever be utilized the way they used to be?

    junebug62 replied to kstec's topic in General Nursing

    But again, it's about choice. Suppose you don't want to work in LTC? Should you have to get your RN to go into peds or OB? I think it is JACOHA, and politics in

  15. NCLEX-Big Picture question?????

    junebug62 replied to junebug62's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I know I am beating a dead horse here, but it just seems wrong. I wonder if all professions are like that? Is passing the bar the same, in terms of schooling,being testing on your knowledge etc? It's...

  16. Will LPN's ever be utilized the way they used to be?

    junebug62 replied to kstec's topic in General Nursing

    I hear you sister! It happened here in Virginia. Back when I became an LPN (23 years ago) UVA had LPNs on every floor. ALL floors, L&D, NICU etc. I was hired to work "little peds" 0-6 year...

    junebug62 posted a topic in Virginia Nursing

    junebug62 replied to junebug62's topic in Virginia Nursing

    The main difference that I have found is that some programs require a microbiology class and some don't. Sometimes, also a one credit class here and there. Some will make CPR a credit class, etc. I...

    junebug62 replied to junebug62's topic in Virginia Nursing

    :idea:I live in central Va so JTCC is about an hour one way where as Petersburg is just too far. I would like something that would take what credits I have and be student friendly, and I could attend...

  24. "Confessional?"

    junebug62 replied to CyndieRN2007's topic in General Nursing
