Hello quittaRN, ASN I am an LVN with 2.5 yrs experience also relocating to Houston some time this summer I will be following this post as I have a 5 year old and her education is a top concern of mine. I am an LVN and I have no idea where I will work as of yet but im looking for an LTACH to gain some good experience. I have began to lurk and stalk this site for job leads and first hand info about good and poor places to work as i really have no desire to go to the nursing home as a primary source of income.

hello all, I'm looking to relocate to houston in the next 6 months or less. Currently I have 2.5 years experience as an LVN. Recently i went to a .gov job fair and got offer a position. The security background and the entire process has been slow. i know the gov offers lots of benfits worth the wait...... Trying to get a feel for the houston area job market within both the govt (federal and state) and the private sector to include pay.

Where are you working?

Im in Fayetteville, NC working homecare for maxim I make 18.50 hr no shift diff and very few paid holidays. I have 18months experience however I made 19 at a local assisted facility.

What city is this in texas I need some job prospects in texas pls.

i am a new lpn moving to the dmv area to attend career training solutions lpn to rn program. i have previous experious and would like to know where i should apply that would appreciate my rn once it is complete.

how are you enjoying the program. I am a lpn looking to do one of there programs either the lpn to bsn or the lpn to adn. i have researched the prereqs. and I am only lacking my science classes.

are you doing the lpn to rn program???

im am also considering MCI i only have a chemistry class left to take. are you taking your prereqs. there if so how do you feel about the prereq. classes.

@ lifeisgood2012 have you found anything yet? i am also relocating to theNC area from texas where they hire LVNs on the spot so i know your frustration as in NC it really helps to know someone to get a leg up on what facilities are hiring and willing to give a nurse a shot.

was it difficult getting a position at a Va (veterans administration) clinic. I am asking because I am also very interested in getting work in the virginia area and at a Va facility because of their benefits.

I'm looking to Relocate to Va what area of Va. Are you in?

can you explain what exactly does an EMR consultant do as a nurse, are you showing companies how to transition into the electronic age, and what are the experience requirements.
