ok I have a question,in your facility if you work 11p-7a and you work a holiday do you work christmas eve into christmas day or christmas day into day after????this is bugging me because I am a part-time employee and was asked to choose a holiday whi...

I have a question how many CEU does an LPN need per year??and since I am perdiem do I just do these on my own????I have been an LPN 1 year and have yet to complete more then 1 from a facility I am pool at.

So as an LPN I have a question,are Medtechs allowed to do recaps if an RN signs off????apparentally this has been an ongoing question at work for years now,the company said no but the manager looked it up and said anyone can do recaps....listen if th...

at my facility they have one in bathroom one in bedroom and most have a vital link and the ALF

wow I have one of these at my place ughhhhhhh the best is when she is sleeping and pushing her vitalink and not even knowing it

and re-caps once a month maybe

I hate to say this but this is a common error with nurses when it comes to an added med like antibiotics,I would worry more about wrong med or wrong patient,I myself am big on giving the med and then missing the small block on the MARS and no matter ...

I am a graduate ofd Lincoln Tech,last September class and the only RN program I can get into without a waiting list is online....$$$$ so I have wait because I am paying back 26,000 to Lincoln Tech

We do the same as you did just document thats all you can do

with the AM med pass you have to remember some places don't have as many nurses on so even though it might be a small amount of meds it maybe a bigger census,like on other shifts you may have 20-36 residents but on 11-7 you have double or a whole fac...

I work perdiem and have done all shifts,the day shift is great but a little crazy{in ltc},I hate the 3-11 and to do this fulltime with a family would stink,11-7 awww if you can hang all night is good,I have a 13 and 16 yr old home and a husband so t...

okay I am glad to find this forum,I am racking my brain trying to find out information on med techs,I am an LPN in NJ and work along med techs but I was just told by an RN in another facility that it is out of their scope to give narcs???but they do ...

my friend and I are still on the wall about this,has anyone completed the program and not be able to find work??It's hard enough as an LPN not finding work in NJ that I am afraid of completing online and no one taking me seriously.....how long did it...

they have made copies of it at my jobs!!

in LTC you do more nursing,pegs,colostomy,Iv's,wound care but alot of meds...in Assisted Living you do more meds then anything else and paper work alot of paper work....

it does get crazy in there and with me still being new I get nervous but I have sent people out if I question it because the motto is when in doubt send them out..my problem is I don't know the residents and if this is their normal where in my nursi...

yes alot of changes are going on because the new company took over...

21-25,pool or perdiem is the higher rate,21 is usually the 7-3 then it goes up with shifts

when are you orientating???I work eow 7-3 and I am there a few days this week and next???where else will you be working,I am pool nurse at a nursing home...I graduated back in September and unless I wanted fulltime 3-11 I couldn't find a fulltime pos...

I am looking into doing my LPN to RN online and I want to know if every state excepts this and if anyone has done this and with what company did you go thru....I have spoke to The College Network but am a bit confused,what is excellular{spelling awfu...

this must be 5 stars???I work at the washington township one eow,and at a nursing home perdiem for the past few months

be prepared to do a whole lot of nothing!!!teach yourself and pay a whole lot of money and that jobs are scarce with no experience,take it from me who graduated last september

in a skilled nursing home what is your ratio???mine is 120 bed with census at about 80 something...7-3= 3 lpn's,1RN,9 aids I think.....3-11 =3 lpn's ,9 aids and 11-7 =2lpns 5 aids my problem is on the 11-7 one nurse does 2 carts and I know everyone ...

This is why I do pool,my first job started last month and it trully is not for me,it is too crazy there and I kinda feel like it is not organized well,put it this way all the nurses seem to be leaving from burn out...I feel like I am too new to bburn...

I am in the same boat,no they don't take B/P which I don't get,the state was there this week and I didn't have to work thank god because I would have been freaked out since I am brand new...
