I work in a Peds office. There wasn't really anything they required, and I am IV certified but won't ever utilize that skill in the office. We also have a lab tech from the local Children's hospital...

Hello everyone! I went and spoke with someone from the Fairborn campus today about the LPN to RN program. I was impressed. They no longer require the HESI and they accept other college credits which...
I am an LPN and have worked in an endoscopy center for 2 years. I had an interview today for an opening at a pediatric office. Full time, weekends off. I think it went great. I'm mailing a thank you...
Well I got a call back early than expected. They want to do a back ground check and check my supervisor references. I put one of my past supervisors down who is also a friend and they called her...
So my 2nd interview went very well. I was there talking to the practice manager for and hour and half! They are making their final decision next week. :) Sent from my iPhone using
I got a call from the other Pediatric office and had a phone interview. I feel confident it went well. She said she would let me know. *fingers crossed* :) Sent from my iPhone using

I'm in the Dayton area and it's horrible. The area is saturated with nurses. I work at a speciality office and make 17.00. I have been an LPN since 2011. I am seeking another job now and have...
Thanks, I didn't get it though ? they called yesterday. I did apply at another peds office though. I was unsure about the thank you note. I know when we get mail at the office I work at now most...

That sounds great! I think I'm going to be contacting them for info. It is more expensive but I'll be done in a little over 2 years versus being on the waiting list at Clark State that long. Thanks...

OP are you going to Fortis? I went there for my LPN. I am currently at Clark State for my RN but am looking to switch because the waiting list is so long. Do they offer a night or weekend option? Good...

I've been an LPN since Nov 2011. I work at a doctors office in Dayton Ohio and make 16.00. It's Monday-Friday 8-5 with holidays off. I've been looking in to others career opportunities where I can use...
I have decided to go back for my RN. I start classes on Monday. I got my LPN last November and have really struggled getting a good position. My area is flooded with LPNs. I am pretty excited though,...
This really gets on my nerves. The other day a girl I work with said that LPN meant "licensed butt wiper" I was furious. I just kind of laughed it off. I busted my butt getting my LPN. Some people...

I went to Fortis in Centerville for my LPN and it was a disaster. Completely unorganized. I have several friends who decided to go into the RN and they said it is worse than the LPN program was. I was...
I am wanting to get as many certifications that I can. Has anyone taking ACLS online? I have seen many websites that offer the online course, but am wondering how reputable they are. I already have my...
Thanks Sun0408. I am new to all this certification stuff and am not sure how or what to get. I am from Ohio. I am IV certified, we can start, discontinue, flush with saline, hang piggyback, and a few...
Hello everyone, I am a LPN. I finished school last year and got my license in November. I applied at what seemed like hundreds of places. No responses to anything. I eventually found a position at a...
