Get it in writing.....verbal agreements mean nothing. This is your career, you need to make sure you have the new position before doing anything to put your current position in danger. Just my 2 cents.

Passed :) Had handwash, making a occupied bed, pulse, PROM on shoulder, and fingernail care. Pretty easy draw of skills. Now i just need to find a job :)

Sorry bout that! I worked in big business for a few years, and whenever i think suit i think what i used to wear everday (suit, tie, polished shoes, etc...). Best of luck :)

I went to Wally World and bought the Dr. Scholls white tennis shoes with the built in gel inserts. Very comfy, and like $25-30. Good deal

I would say yes, you could get by with a button up shirt and tie, but if the guy after you or before you had on a suit it will make you look less professional. For an interview you want to do the best you can at all the things that you can control, a...

One thing that i disagree with above, you want to wash your hands BEFORE you gather supplies, otherwise you are contaminating clean supplies with your unwashed hands. So wash hands, gather supplies, knock, and so on.....

Thanks Dinah, i know it makes more sense to go straight for the ADN, the only issue is finding a school that works for me. I guess either way i am just going to have to bite the bullet and leave my current position and take an overnight position as a...

Hey guys, just finishing up my CNA certification, and i was wondering if anyone knew where I could get some phlebotomy training in the twin cities. Nights or weekends would be best, as i am a working adult. Also, i am not looking for like a 5 class p...

PS Edunada if you are looking for a cna course, look at Comfort Services in minneapolis, they have alot of flexibility in their class offerings, and are the most affordable i found. I am in their weekend class right now.

Yeah the accelerated route makes the most sense, i just cannot afford to not work ya know? Planning a wedding for next year, and student loans and bills!! Whew, just think i have to go the night school route, or work overnights as a CNA with a day sc...

best of luck! I am just wrapping up my cna course, so getting ready to move from business to nursing!!! Hope i can find a job too!

Sounds like a good call, congrats on being offered the LTC Job!! Keep us posted

Oh you know i am interested. I used to work as a BA in MPD for home decor. I designed the home design event and all that. Esunda, where are you pursuing your nursing education? What route are you taking? Right now, i am just trying to find an overnig...

no one?
