LPNABS

i do not feel that i am paid what i am worth. but i am thankful and blessed to have a job. i am a lpn working on my adn. i work in quality management as a clinical nurse reviwer, and i do make more than a lot of floor nurses. i live in virginia and the cost of living is not extremely high. i earn $28hr. the benefits i have are excellent.i know that it is sometimes frustrating to hear people with other professions talk about the salary knowing that they earn more than nurses. however, as a nurse you can always find employment. now thats " job security":nurse:

Welcome Tx LVN. Best wishes with your studies. I am sure your family is proud of you. Kudo's to you.:up:

welcome amber. wishing you well with your studies. kudo's to you for finally deciding to further your nursing career.:w00t:

That is great that you have decided to do the bridge program. That is one of the reasons I decided to do the RN. I don't think LPN'S get the same respect. But good luck in you endeavors.:up:

I am a LPN. I have been a LPN since 1998. I am currently in the Excelsior program. I am okay with the price. I am able to work and receive tuition reimbursement, to help with some of the expenses. I think in the end it will be worth it.

I am using a lap top. I think it is a good investment. I also take alot of practice test online . The laptop makes it more accessible anytime and anywhere.

I am doing a distance learning program through The College Network. I will earn ASN from Excelsior University.

I have been busy with work and the holidays. But, I am studying and continuing to work hard.

Tracy, That is great I admire your determination. It takes a lot of determination to do this with 4 children. Continue to persevere.

That is great. Are you going through The College Network or some other distance learning program?

Hi I am new to this forum. I am an LPN to RN going through The College Network. I work as a Quality Nurse Auditor and also post op surgical unit.
