I have wanted to be nurse forever. But circumstances got in the way. I read some other threads about age and being older. I feel loke I can do it. I just have some questions about the best way to go about it. If a person is older, like I am, 55, and ...

I was wondering because it seems like hospitals might want to save money and have more LVN's that are highly qualified and less RN's on the floor. Or are CNA's doing the LVN's duties now a days.?

If a person is older, like I am, 55, and wants to become a nurse. Some of the nurses here are saying that it is harder for older people to get a job because of training expenses. So, would it be better to first become a CNA, Then immediately an acute...

Ok, so now I'm thinking of becoming a medical assistant instead of an LVN, or CNA, because it is so hard to find a job as a LVN right now. Does anyone know how hard it is to find a job as a medical assistant. I really want to do something in the medi...

Hi, I'm going to start school to become an LVN. I was wondering how hard it is to find a job in California right now. I would like to work in a hospital, but I realize that it is hard to find LVN openings in the hospital. Does anyone have any informa...

Where there's a will, there's a way! Iv'e lived in California my whole life. Yes, there are places in Orange County that are affordable. You can do it!

Well I guess I've got my answer. I guess I'll just stick to selling health and life insurance, there's alot more money in that anyways. I have always had this deep down desire to be a nurse. It's just the wrong time with this economy. Thanks everyone...

The website has tons of employment opportrunities for LVNs.

Thanks. So you were an LVN for awhile when you got the new job? I was thinking of maybr going to school to become a medical assistant instead . Maybe it would be easier to get a job as an MA. Also, I did find a website that has posts to hire LVNs in ...

mandykal, are you a new grad lvn? so did you apply for jobs and right away got one? where at? i'm just curious. everyone has been telling me it is really hard to find a job as an lvn right now, especially a new grad. what do you think?

What about CNA's? Is it hard to find a job as a CNA?

I live in san Bernardino county in southern california. I am trying to decide between a few schools for LVN. I was wondering if anyone has heard of Hacienda Adult school in La Puente. And what you think of it. Another one I'm considering is American ...

Go for it!! It's in your heart!!!

:nurse:I was wondering why so many students fail to make it through to graduation of the nursing programs. (specificaly LVN/LPN programs) It is it usually due to stress or grades? I know I can get the grades, it is the stress/pressure, I'm concerned ...

I think comparing the passing rates at each school of your choice is a good indication of how good the school is. What state are you in? You can usually find the info at your states board of nursing website.

Also, pray that the Lord will open the right door for you! God Bless!

Well, asually the top grades or testing grades get in first. If you are on the wait list you will be eligible for the next class that starts and so on. But, how are your grades? I would contact the school and speak to some one directly about what you...

Hi, I have been considering LVN school for a while now. I have always wanted to be a nurse. I have heard that school can be overwhelming. I want to do the program in one year. How hard is it really??????

Thank you for replying.

Can anyone direct me to a website that reviews what is on the LVN entrance exam. I need to study for it. Thanks:heartbeat

I think if some of the other employees have contracted it from the patients, then you should definitely protect yourself, or bolt. Even if it is suspected and a high risk area, and the facility does not take precautions, I personally, would not work ...

I clicked on my account, then private messages. Then it said that I'm currently not allowed to send private messages. Do I have to pay money to be able to send private messages? Did you pay? I guess I can do that. Jewel

Wow, Hacienda adult school is where I was just thinking of going. I looked up their pass rate, and it was higher than most of all the other local schools. 91% pass rate. How do i find your email address? I got your private message vintagestudent, but...

Ok, that makes since, but I have heard that some schools don't prepare the students as well as others. That the pass rate on the test to get your license might not be as good some schools. IDK, but I am thinking of going to an adult school. It is a o...
