Hi I really need to give some advice to my older daughter and am hoping you can help. I have 2 daughters that work for 2 separate doctors offices. One has a wonderful office but my oldest had a terrible experience. It was like high school all over ag...

The Veterans hospital in Syracuse hires LPN's and you will get a ton of experince there. Great Benefits too! Another option is a doctors office. There are many to choose from. Best Wishes :)

This is not really a nursing question but hopefully I can find an answer. I am applying for a scholarship to go back to school and it asks for the GPA of my most current schooling. I graduated LPN school and they sent my grades but not a GPA. How wo...

I need to make clear she gave an adult vaccine and it it should have been a child's. That was the mistake. The doctor did not talk to the family the only thing that was said was that it was an inexperinced nurse gave an adult does of pneumonia and it...

I had 85 questions and passed...most pass with 85 so try and relax :) Jean

very much agree with this..something just does not ring right. jean

I have a question on how best to handle something. I just don't have the experience and still don't have the thickest skin yet. There is a secretary(she is older) that constantly rags on me about my age...because I am 18. She makes remarks like "so d...

Thanks for all your great ideas...she has been silent the last few days..i am giving it back :) Jean

CONGRATS CONGRATS:lol2: CONGRATS:yeah: GO CELEBRATE!

I have heard of very few that fail at 85..in fact my ATI instructor told me they have never had a student fail at 85. I think its good you found the questions easy. Don't read to much into how hard you think the test was...I really bet you passed and...

Please let us know as soon as you find out even though I will bet its a big fat PASS!!!!! Jean

I agree I have heard about a wide range of people geeting 165, 150, 170's ect...the number of questions does not determine if you pass or fail. I had 85 and passed, my step-mom had 89 and passed and my sister had 205 and passed. So try and keep yours...

I 100% understand what you are saying here. I am in a family practice and have only been there about 4 months. I know this is not where I want to stay the rest of my life. Its really nice and its great having weekends and holidays but I want the chan...

before i began my program i took a course in medical terminology. its important because you learn how to break down words. it really helped me. i am sure there are some great flash cards out there. what really helped me while i was in school was the ...

hahahaha egglady....that was good. i thought about saying with a smile..."do you get the senior citizen discount where you shop?"....yes i guess i need to let her know instead of steaming inside. At first it did not bother me at all because i am use ...

We will all be waiting to hear :) I only had to wait 2 days and it was hard. I was out to lunch with my best friend and my sister called me and said the computer said my results were ready. I let her check and she told me over the phone that I passed...

Working in a doctors office is nice. I am learning a lot and still have to learn to perform under pressure. I see a lot of different things and have learned to draw blood, something they did not teach in my LPN program. The pay is less than a nursing...

I am sure you will have your pick if your willing to move. In Central NY I don't know of any wait lists. We have Boces centers that have 11 month LPN programs. There is a simple entrance test and then you have an interview. The costs vary but its aro...

It took awhile for me to get my first job..I am 18 and my age did not help..but after about a month I landed a job in a doctors office..don't give up :) Jean

Most people pass on 85 questions. I had 85 and passed and my instructor told me she has never had a student fail at 85 questions. I bet you passed! Jean

I think many LPN programs are 11 months. Mine was 11 months and you just needed to take a simple entrance test. My sister did school with me with 2 children under the age of 5. Yes it was a lot of stress but well worth it. We both have good jobs in b...

The area I live in seem to slowly be phasing out LPN's in hospitals. There are VERY few positions in hospitals except the VA hospital. On the other hand there a plenty of jobs in doctors offices,nursing homes, private duty. I work in a doctors office...

Odds are wayyy in your favor. 85 questions is a very good number :) Jean

Stressful for sure..I cried on the way to my test, I was so scared. But you have done everything you can to get ready. Don't over study these last few days. Do practice questions. Someone from this forum told me when you get in front of the computer ...

Hi My sister had all 205 questions ans was sure she failed but she passed!!! When do u get your results? Jean
