   It's quite boring. But kids were there when I attended. I'm sure the parents in the room will certainly

2. Is becoming an LPN worth it in my case?

   moneyline702 replied to moneyline702's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

   I never said I could bypass anything. I know the classes needed. Aside from the general eds that I have done, I have BIOL 189 done and look forward to 223, 224 & 251. That will take a year. The...

   moneyline702 replied to moneyline702's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

   If I were able to get a job as a CNA here at my current job I'd just pursue my BSN. I need more than the $12/hr I get and benefits. I can't get financial aid like I mentioned before. Since even with...

4. Is becoming an LPN worth it in my case?

   moneyline702 replied to moneyline702's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

   Given that I would have to do a year of prereq's before I get into RN school the LPN route seems better economically. I do have a CNA license but my current employer won't hire me as one. And yes, I...

   moneyline702 replied to Optimom's topic in Nevada Nursing

   I've been grateful to have worked as a CNA in SNF's. I also had work at UMC as well. The market is hard here for EVERYONE regardless of title in health care. CNA, LPN or RN the road is tough...

7. Is becoming an LPN worth it in my case?

   moneyline702 replied to moneyline702's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

   Nevada doesn't use medication aides. However, there was talks about expanding the role of the CNA (for which I'm already certified). Now the $16/hr for CNA is only in hospitals. The SNF's are paying...

8. Is becoming an LPN worth it in my case?

   moneyline702 posted a topic in LPN, LVN Corner

   I am a hospital sitter. I make $12/hr there and no benefits. Since they won't hire me as a CNA I have to cultivate more options. A CNA here (Nevada) makes $16/hr. I know that LPN's are primarily in...

   I am a hospital sitter. I make $12/hr there and no benefits. Since they won't hire me as a CNA I have to cultivate more options. A CNA here makes $16/hr. I know that LPN's are in skilled nursing here...

10. How do I become a CNA at CSN?

    moneyline702 replied to whisman1's topic in Nevada Nursing

    The 7 week course is over summers. Online with ------- is the best. It is wise to inquire as to what clinical class is associated with a particular site. I got lucky in that my clinical was a half...

14. Medical school vs Nursing School

    moneyline702 replied to faraday68's topic in General Students

    For as much as you say they are equal yet different you fail to state that the "working with people" and "working with data" aspects of the job are in fact interchangeable. A better statement would be...
