Here's some interesting information in today's paper: http://www.daytondailynews.com/n/content/oh/story/news/local/2008/04/02/ddn040308miamijacobs.html

Hi all! I am a crisis care (continuous care) LPN that works 12 hours shifts. Our department is having a picnic to help promote department morale and camaraderie. We will be having games and door prizes. We will be giving away smaller prizes, and one ...

Thanks for all the great suggestions! I'm very excited about this gift :)

I totally get what dajulieness is saying. I'm a hospice nurse and do all one-on-one care and when I'm cleaning a patient all I try to think about is how much better they're going to feel when they're clean and how much better it will smell when I'm a...

I did something like this yesterday. I'm a Hospice crisis care nurse and my pt the last two days lives in an ECF. Her husband is her roommate. My patient herself had no problems with the facility food but her poor hubby came back from each meal in th...

My insurance company would have given us a discount on our auto policy if I was an RN, but because I'm an LPN we did not receive the discount.

I started LPN school and went full time while my kids were 2 and 5. Now they're 3 and 6 and I'm in RN school full time and work full time. It's definitely doable, you just have to be committed to being organized.

None of us Nurses would be Nurses, and none of the Doctors would be Doctors, if it wasn't for Teachers!!

I'd choose to marry the man I did. He's a blue-collared worker that gets his hands dirty every day and works his butt off. You know what he has to offer me?? A warm hug on the worst of days, a secret wink that means he thinks I'm sexy even in bed hea...

Geez, AngelfireRN. Didn't your vows say "to have and to hold, to honor and cherish, to wash your dirty underwear, and have a hot dinner on the table every night - all while working a very strenuous job?" Where did you get married?? LOL You put it ver...

Awesome post!! Congratulations to you!! YOU did it!

My daugher would be "African-American" I guess - her dad was from Cape Town South Africa and I was born in raised in Ohio... but she has blonde hair and blue eyes and painfully pale skin. LOL

It doesn't matter that I do cook for my husband probably 5 nights a week... my family and my husband's still make jokes about "Why did you even bother to put a stove in that kitchen since she never cooks?" Luckily my DH sticks up for me... he'd bette...

I purchased a floater frame. The actual frame is probably 10 x 13 inches and my 8 x 11 certificate (I don't get a paper license either) "floats" between two panes of glass. I found mine at Kohl's. http://www.kohls.com/upgrade/webstore/product_page.j...

I just graduated from LPN school in April. I don't know what it's like everywhere else but here nursing schools are popping up everywhere - and these schools are fighting for clinical locations. When a school is finally let into a facility for clinic...

I'm still looking for my first nursing job, but as a previous stay at home mom, I have to tell ya that you will probably be grateful for a chance to get out of the house, away from kids, and having some adult interaction, even if it is once a week!

I am yet another story of 1st marriage - fancy big wedding, marriage lasted 6 months... 2nd marriage got married on the Vegas strip just the two of us and look back on the wedding as the most intimate thing we could have done. As far as becoming Cat...

Hi everyone! I graduated with my LPN from RETS in April and passed my boards at the end of June. When I graduated in April, I decided to sit out a term before returning to RETS for their ADN program and planned on starting back in August. During my t...

I tried to call the BON to check the status of my registration. All I could get was a voicemail. I left them a message on Tuesday, they called me back on the following Monday - after I had already gotten my ATT, taken my NCLEX, and gotten my license ...

I'm digging up a REALLY old thread. I just wanted to say that I graduated school in April. I took my boards on June 26th and was posted on the Ohio Board of Nursing Website on June 29th with an LPN license number. Finally, I am a nurse! Now the strug...

Hi! I'm in the Dayton area. My last day of school was March 27th. My school submitted my registration and it was received by the OBN April 20th. I started showing "pending" on their website June 4th. I received my ATT on June 25th. Now, I happened to...

Hello. I'm a new LPN in OH. My last day of school was March 27th and my application was mailed in by my school April 20th. I started showing "pending" on the OBN website on June 4. I got my ATT on June 25th.

This is who my school arranged to come and do a review for us. I'm not sure of your location but it's worth a shot to check. I thought they did an excellent job. http://www.sylviarayfield.com/

I just got the "unofficial" results off Pearson's website by paying for the Quick Results and it says "pass" but my BON hasn't updated it on their website yet. I'm really excited but I will feel a lot better when I actually see my license number. Con...
