    andreasmom02 replied to chavezm1109's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

  5. How to become a CNA again.

    andreasmom02 replied to roreyn02's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Like smartnurse1982 said, you might not be able to. You should contact your Board of Nursing in your state for more information on it. I'm not sure if one can work as a CNA when you're an LPN, because...

  6. revoked lpn license

    andreasmom02 replied to lakeisha3414's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    You would probably need to contact the Louisiana board of nursing to ask them. I doubt anyone on here could tell you. Plus, I'm sure it depends on why the license was revoked. Good luck with...

    andreasmom02 posted a topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    This is a long vent post. Sorry, have to vent. I think it's safe to say I may be done with nursing, & feel like I barely began it. I'm a 33 year old female, married, mom of two great kids! I...

    andreasmom02 replied to andreasmom02's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Hi, thanks so much for your response. My husband has actually suggested working as a substitute nurse at my kids school. I just feel a little unqualified for this as I haven't done any pediatric...

    andreasmom02 replied to andreasmom02's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Thanks again for everyone's replies and ideas, I appreciate them. Yes, I have considered home health & pediatrics, but they just aren't for me. I didn't like pediatrics in nursing school. Little...

    andreasmom02 replied to Cynt87's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Wow, I can't believe some of the prices of these LPN schools that some of you went to. I became an LPN through my local community college. After paying for the pre-req classes and completing them, I...

  21. For all you LPN/LVN's out there, was it hard to find a job after graduation?

    andreasmom02 replied to I♥Scrubs's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I graduated LPN school in '08, and live in a rural area on the east coast, USA. Yes, it was very hard to find a decent LPN job after nursing school. I have bounced from job to job, mostly working part...

    andreasmom02 replied to Elleveein's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I've been wondering the same thing... I'd like to get in to some kind of desk job nursing because I can't work full time as an LPN, as I'm a busy mom. I've been considering getting a medical coding...
