    SAHMU4IA replied to NICUrn2B's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    NICUrn2B: I saw a number of LVN positions at SF General's website yesterday. Take a look.... There are jobs here...think back to your clinicals. They might be hiring

  4. Any Lpn's that would never become a RN?

    SAHMU4IA replied to kgard7777's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I'm starting to come to the conclusion that I might not choose to ever "upgrade" to RN. My job is just right for me, with all the responsibilites and few of the headaches that my RN staffmate has....

    SAHMU4IA replied to nursemn's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

  8. Professionalism

    SAHMU4IA replied to dbledutchs's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    unacceptable. This kind of behavior does not typify nursing. This type of person finds out real quick who they can and cannot speak that way in front of, or even in ear-shot of. If we're passive...

  11. How has Nursing changed you?

    SAHMU4IA replied to NC Girl BSN's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Pehaps in order to answer the original question "How has nursing changed you?" --we need to first ask ourselves, "Why did we want to be nurses in the first place?" Was it for the money? Forget it....

  12. How has Nursing changed you?

    SAHMU4IA replied to NC Girl BSN's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I guess it depends on where you attended school. To us, our "Skills Lab" was kind of a joke. Whereas our Clinicals were where we learned and regularly performed skills such as inserting Foley's, med...

    SAHMU4IA replied to jupyter_flew's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    You should not accept this kind of poor communication and lack of planning at your school or at a job/hospital. I do not think quitting the program is the solution. Go to the dean. Now. Either by...

  17. Nursing School Morale

    SAHMU4IA replied to Butterflybee's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Our class started out that way in the 1st semester. Funny thing, one by one those real negative/ugly people started flunking out one by one. Towards the end we only had one difficult person and she...

    SAHMU4IA replied to sofianicole's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I just got my first job and it pays $25.00. This is in a Bay Area university clinic. They will upgrade me to "Senior LVN" if I stay for one year, which pays almost $30. The benefits are

    SAHMU4IA replied to Cherry2's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    SAHMU4IA replied to DeeDee143's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    DAVE, Hang in there. Every single person I spoke to (that passed!) has said the same thing. They felt "numb". Including me. I never felt so unsure of myself in life. In school, I could always...
