  1. Lets get a current salary thread going for 09/10

    Louisiana(South in general) is trying hard to keep our pay low:banghead:
  2. Excelsior College- almost seems too easy

    Are LPNs that have been doing nothing but pushing pills:hrnsmlys: at a SNF at a big disadvantage, when it comes to the clinical testing? My care plan and head to toe skill is crusty:uhoh3:
  3. Lets get a current salary thread going for 09/10

    LPN Southern Louisiana, LTC $16.00 PMs
  4. February 09 NCLEX Test Taker Support

    Woo Hoo... I passed. I studied for 3 days @3hrs qday, nothing I studied was on test...lol.
  5. February 09 NCLEX Test Taker Support

    OK.. Did mine today..I feel spanked. I thought I knew something..I was wrong...WOW! Cut off at 85I think..It went by fast
  6. New nurse in LTC & Overwhelmed (long)

    That does not sound like a good place to work. I'm working at a place like "Travel50" runs.. Love it.
  7. Warm clothes under scrubs

    Sorry, I have the opposite problem.. I need frozen underwear to stop the heat... Might be my manapause though
  8. I'm doomed! NCLEX was HARD!

    I took mine today, stopped at 85... Feel like it spanked me too:uhoh21:
  9. February 09 NCLEX Test Taker Support

    2/4 for me.. I wasn't nervous until I went through this thread :)
  10. OK i really think I failed the Nclex

    Congrats!!! and Thanks, If I stop at 100 I won't panic(to bad)
  11. NEED ADVICE! I quit my job and now I regret it.

    Owch, sorry for your delema. Yes, They can(You could hire a laywer and go for lost wages.. if you wanted to be blacklisted) . My only suggestion is ...Try to find a LTC part time position, there usually good with working with your schedual, easy to f...
  12. Black male nurses

    If I get a realy good tan.. Can I count? :)
  13. help-i'm a student who failed a drug test

    LOL.. I think there are some jobs where you gotta eat "poppy seed cake" just to go in. (This is a joke..I don't condone the consumption of seeds...lol)
  14. The demand for LPNs in Louisiana is still kicken like a chicken. I'm still a little confused about the LPNs are so limited bs.. We can't hang blood and we can't give a push... OK, That's about 0.5% of nurse work.
  15. Discrimination towards male students? Need advice.

    AZO is the man..I wish I could watch what happens in his Nursing program but, RN instructors are smarter and sneakier. So be ready for the fun:D
  16. Took NCLEX without studying. Anyone else?

    Wow.. This thread was like a juicy book. I ripped through every post, page waiting to see the outcome. I was afraid Algernon wouldn't come back to tell us..lol. Well, there goes my just wing-it idea..Thanks for the try and the story! I guess I'll stu...
  17. Discrimination towards male students? Need advice.

    After a year, .5 of this I think I'v recognized a part of our problem. We as men think and act different than women, the instructors working with us already have us singled out as physicaly diff. but don't continue with the mental part? I also believ...
  18. This latest sickness is making me NUTS!

    Ewwwww.. Sick people...Stay awayyyyyy.:wink2: Hope your both better soon
  19. every LPN in my hosp was laid off today

    This is a perfect example of Nurses not sticking together. If the RNs would help by boycotting when this happens it would show unity instead of proving the problem we have of the RN-LPN complex. If 100 RNs put in a 2 week notice when this happened it...
  20. every LPN in my hosp was laid off today

    I'm thinking that if 100 LPNs get laid off...about 50 RNs are gunna quit when they start drowning ...Hope the secretaries can do wound care...LOL I"m very sure that suits & ties cut off oxygen to brains.
  21. Too good-looking

    Awww mann... I'll never find a job. LOL:chuckle But, that is just plain wrong
  22. Lpn To Rn (bsn) Or Lpn To Adn (rn) How Long?

    I'v been told that if your an LPN you save time and money by going strait for RN B verses going for Assosiate first then going for Bach. ... Any opinions??
  23. Why don't they teach us before testing us?

    Welcome to the world of "The nursing student" We have the same problem here.... Teaching isn't as important as testing.
  24. Do you ever get called doctor?

    Conrad.. Did you get a sniff of perfume?
  25. Prestige Sprague Stethoscope not working for me

    You can get a very good cardiac model on ebay for $40. Theres a couple different sellers/makes but same sound quality at a Lit. Made a big difference for me.
