Hello all, I am an LPN in the state of WA and have been job hunting. I see a few places are desperately seeking LPN infusion nurses, whether its home infusion or in office. I am trying to gain some insight before I interview for a position as to what I need to know as I am new to this side of nursing. I have been a nurse for almost 20 years and have not done this before. Are there courses I can take online? What questions should I ask at the interview? What skill set is good to highlight since I haven't done infusions before? Should I be worried if they are willing to hire me without experience with infusions?

Does anyone travel with their kids? do you find it difficult to find rentals that will accommodate families? I am due to go to CT at the end of the month but am having a heck of a time finding something affordable for myself and the kiddos. I guess I would just need short term for a month or two until I could find something more permanent since the job offer could end up being long term.

The biggest thing that I am curious about and having a hard time with (accepted an offer cross country) is finding short term rentals. I mean I could do an airbnb but they are so expensive. What do all of you do?

Wow, the elementary school I am a one to one nurse in, the teachers give all meds. Not really sure what the nurse here does

Was this for me? I actually am registering for classes next week to go for my asn

Ok. I'll do more research. It's probably gonna be a few years before the school is big enough to actually need to hire a nurse...by then I'll be done with school myself and I'm hoping to slide into the job.

Thanks, I couldn't find that forum

I am trying to find out guidelines to be a school nurse...or rather to help a small private school legally have a nurse working for them. Does the RN have to be covered by a doctor, does the school have to do anything?

As an LPN you have lots of choices outside of a hospital, you can work in the public school system, do home care, mental health agencies, doctors offices. Going for your degree wouldn't hurt either

Hey everyone! I'm a current LPN and I am so ready to move on and get my BSN. I looked into Chamberlain but it's far too expensive. Are there other local schools close to Shelby, Kings Mountain, Gastonia besides the community colleges that offer nursing? I don't want to wait another 5-10 years. 20 has been long enough.

I've seen alot of posts from the boston area. I am an LPN in western mass and I am really wanting to do a bridge program but I work days and really don't want to stop working to go to school. Does anyone know of any good online programs based in this area?

ouch..a real nursing job? I am an LPN as well and just started working as a school nurse in a building with almost 700 students. Its crazy hectic at times and calm at others. we have our frequent fliers, our liars, and such. I love every stinkin crazy moment of it all. So much so I am really contemplating going back to school to get my RN so I can have my own school and not have to work with another nurse.
