How is the Tampa, Clearwater , Fla. areA on finding a LPN JOB?

Stow, Ohio LPN 1st.year Alheizmers and dementia unit 15.56 an hour full-time 6a-6p 3 days a week We are in locked pods. ( 25 patients) unless another nurse calls off. Then we are expected to cover 2 pods. (50 patients.) waiting until I have my year experience, then moving on.

i live in mogadore. i just recently graduated and am a lpn. what facility in hatrville do you work at?

My DIL went to Rets in cuyahoga falls. There are recruiters that will come in and offer to pay off your tuition for a 3 year contract. She went ot Fla. The contract said she wold get 36 hrs. a week. The hospital is only giving her 24 hrs. a week. I think she wants out of her contract.

That sounds like a good PLAN.

Your Welcome

I would use other resources as well. Do the questions in the back of the book. Don't rely just on this book. Find as many questions to do from many sources. I also used the n3500 . Someone on here suggested that I didn't use it as it was for RN's. I found the Nclex questions to be similar to those. I passed with 85 questions. A fellow classmate of mine, used Exam-cram only and just found out she failed.

Infection control is big. I also had SATA, 3 math, Prioritizing, Delegating. Keep doing as many questions as you can. I left feeling numb and was sure I failed. But I passed with 85 questions. I know I didn't even get my math right.

This worked for me !!!!!! I passed the Nclex PN First try. 85 questions. I studied for 2months . Did as many questions as I could from different sources. Anything I could get my hands on. Even n3500 for RN's. What a Relief !!!!! I am actually going to have a drink tonight and I don't even drink !!!! lol

Wll today at 8:00 am I took the NclexPN. I feel terrible about it. I am sure I failed. When I got home I tried the trick. First it said I had an open registration for this exam. A new registration cannot be made at this time. 4 hours later, after I saw Delivery successful I tried again. This time it states " Our records indicate you have recently scheduled this exam. Please contact your board member for further assistance. Another registration cannot be made at this time. I hope that is a glimmer of light. Because I am sure I failed at 85 questions.

Can you direct me to the pneumonics for infection control? Thank-You in advance.

How do you know which meds to study? There are so many of them,

congratulations :clphnds:

Which book did you use to study? Saunders?

Well, I will just do those. If I can pass the nclexrn practice tests then I should be able to do the PN nclex. :typing

main menu - nclex-rn 3500 - institutional version do they have a site for pn's?

Our school gave us the ATI last week. I didn't study for it as I wanted to see how I would do and what I retained. It said I would have a 85% of passing if I were to take the test today. I want better odds than that. So I wasn't to pleased with myself. The teacher said that was a good score to get. I take the nclex in April.

Just take one day at a time. One test at a time. Before you know it you will be finished.

I have them posted on my bathroom wall.

Congratulations !!!!!

Enjoy your calm before the storm. LOL

At our school , (1 year LPN school,) we were advised against getting pregnant. They only allow so much time that can be missed. Class time and clinicals are very important. I know the class before us had a lady that was pregnant. She fell behind and didn't pass with her class.

That is such a great idea. Don't worry about being a suck-up. I am sure everyone enjoyed the cookies.

After being out of school for 30 years, NS was what I expected. Alot of hard work and understanding from family members. I graduate next week.

Try to keep yourwelf busy while you are waiting on your results. It sounds as though you were very confident while test taking. I bet you passed with the 265 questions. I have heard that does happen. Keep us informed.
