Any advice on finding a job without my license? What should I tell employers and what should I put on my resume?? Found out Saturday I passed NCLEX now I am ready to jump head first into job hunting but I dont know where to begin considering my licen...

Thankx for the replies..my license was available on the web today and I got a call back...yay:yeah:. ...surprised it happened so quickly. Was expecting to have to wait weeks and weeks for a call back but I hope I get it. And congrats to you student4l...

I went thru the registering process and I got a pop up that said this candidate has an open registration new registration cannot be created at this time......PLEASe tell me thats a good sign my stomach is in knots. I felt the usual way afterward.......

Saunders is a great book for content...it breaks it down into body systems, pharmacology for each system, peds and maternity. It comes with a CD so you can continue the questions related to the content:up:

I have always wanted to be a nurse but up until now I never thought about all of the things it takes to be a nurse. I take my boards next month and am working as a tech at a rehab hospital. I see the amount of paperwork they have to do, the watchful ...

I work at a rehab hospital and 2 of the case managers are LPNs. That could be something to look into.

Oh you will definitely be there but they would sit you in another class or area to "study". They rarely let you just not show up for any reason. Hold the days cuz come last semester:rotfl: well you remember senior-itis??....you didnt hear that from m...

You know what they told us to bring all our books the first day so I lugged close to 20 books and I am telling you it was UNNECCESSARY. Be careful with that bundle because their are books you might not need in there. Some folks were highly upset when...

:D:rotfl:

When I was LPN school I did one of my clinical rotations in a Wound Center. Alot of the pts were those with necrosis on their feet and legs from diabetes. Well this one particular day a gentleman came in for tx of his leg. He had bandages over the bo...

Hi I graduated from my LPN program this past August. At the time and still now I been struggling with finances and havent been able to pay for my registration and all and its scaring the crap outta me that its taking so long for me to take boards. I ...

I just graduated in August and the books change alot. The CD that your are referring to can only be bought and you have to buy a bundle of books because the CD is only for certain books. I kno you want to get yor books early but it might be best to ...

I really dont know what to say about the price, maybe its your location. I am in TN and schools here and surrounding areas aren't too bad. As far as going straight through I dont know how it works there but here in TN you have to clock so many hours ...

Hi, this may be a dumb question. I am planning to move to AL next summer and was wondering do you have to be a current resident of AL to apply for an AL license? Now I understand why you would need to be for mailing purposes but I was wanting to go a...

Thank you! That's exactly what I needed to kno. I know that having to get all that info in takes time its still taking forever to get my current license whice is precisely why I don't want to move down there and "wait"

I will be applying for the LPN-RN Mobility and was wondering if there are any current students who can shed some light on the program. LPNs are admitted in the 2nd semester on a space available basis. How many LPNs usually pick up in the 2nd semester...

I am so excited. But i was wondering what can I do with my diploma until I take my boards. One girl in my class is already working as a weekend nurse:eek:. Where do I begin. I really dont want to wait 2 months before I can get a job to show for my ha...

Hi I will be graduating next month and was wondering how many of you were able to work with just a diploma before you took you boards or had jobs before you graduated. How much can you do? And how do I begin my search? I dont know where to start. Any...

No she is the nurse. Works alone and passes out meds, does wound dressings, etc. And that's what people have told me so I guess I will have to look it up

You are so the person that probably already answered my question. I grad next month and wondering how much could you do with your diploma until you get your license..by the way YAY for you CONGRATS!!!!!

In my opinion taking that A&P while in LPN school will stomp you..but more power and respect to you if you can do it. You really dont need the added stress of another class while in the program, they will keep you plenty busy.

Congrats on the acceptance!!:yeah:YES ma'am it is fast paced..I am pretty sure they told you this but if you have taken nutrition and/or A&P 1&2 and received a B or better you are exempt and let me tell you, you will have alot of time to stud...

You know what? It's supposed to be from 7:45 to 3:30 but you never stay that long. Since I have been in the program the longest I have stayed is 3 pm and that was only once. That's a really long day and everyone is tired we usually finish up around 2...

You are welcome. Glad I can be of some help. Let me know when and if you decide to take those classes I can tell you the best teachers to take.. Also have you looked under the region tab in the tennesee forum. There are some ppl from chattanooga who ...

It definately is beneficial to get those out of the way especially if you want to continue your education. There are alot of people who are alot older. About 85% of the class has kids, full time jobs, husbands and everything else under the sun. Our ...
