    jcsinging replied to Prettybirdy's topic in General Students

    jcsinging replied to sweet_n_low's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

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

    LPNs being phased out is like an urban legend. Someone should put it on snopes.com as being untrue. That myth has been thrown about forever! ....and also - LPNs ARE nurses!! You research different...

  15. Your A LPN, Sooo.....

    jcsinging replied to DarciaMoonz's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I also heard a lot of the "why are you wasting your time going for your LPN?". This, while I'm in school. But it didn't really make me mad. I see the RN doing less patient care and more paperwork...

    jcsinging replied to HopeJade's topic in LPN, LVN Corner
