  2. What level of education do you need to have to teach LPN, medical assistant, RN, MSN?

    tothepointeLVN replied to wih02906's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    What I found in LVN school where all of the instructors are RN's with BSN's or above is that many times the clinical instructors really don't understand the role of the LVN or are not completely aware...

    tothepointeLVN replied to 2bnurseofchrist's topic in General Students

    I averaged about 6hours. I tried to be in bed by 11pm for a 4:30/5:00am alarm. I always prefer to get up a little earlier than I need to so I have plenty of time in the morning to eat, check email

  11. Mount St. Mary's College LA ADN Fall 2010

    tothepointeLVN replied to tothepointeLVN's topic in California Nursing

    I do have a backup but at this point I don;t see why I would be rejected. Selection for the prenursing portion is less competitive and they don't have a set amount of student they accept for the...

    tothepointeLVN replied to tothepointeLVN's topic in General Nursing

  15. Mount St. Mary's College LA ADN Fall 2010

    tothepointeLVN replied to tothepointeLVN's topic in California Nursing

  17. Mount St. Mary's College LA ADN Fall 2010

    tothepointeLVN replied to tothepointeLVN's topic in California Nursing

    tothepointeLVN posted a topic in LPN to RN

    For those LVN/LPN's out there who bridged into nursing programs how did your clinicals go. Did you still require your instructor hovering over your shoulder for tasks that you are already licensed to...
