  1. The Center for Allied Health and Nursing Education

    Owloveyou posted a topic in LPN to RN

    I have found out that they are COE accredited. What I can't find out is what does that mean as far as transferring an RN license to other states? I was looking at going here for my LPN-RN bridge, but...

  2. Cleaning my Littmann

    Owloveyou posted a topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I've just advised someone not to buy the breast cancer edition Littmann because once something gets on it (pen) it doesn't come off. I've had it now for over 6 years and various substances have...

  3. Cleaning my Littmann

    Owloveyou replied to Owloveyou's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Those are very neat, but we are not allowed to use them, as they can't be as easily cleaned as the

  4. Cleaning my Littmann

    Owloveyou replied to Owloveyou's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I haven't but I will! I'm on day 6 of a 12 day stretch and the thought of going into Wal-mart makes me want to cry at this

  5. Are nurses required to do HHA visits in your agency?

    Owloveyou replied to Debra,RN's topic in Home Health

    It could be an agency rule. I was doing both for a while before I was told it wasn't allowed. Could you link me some info on Medicare regulations for home health care? I've been told so many different...

  6. What is your current LPN salary

    Owloveyou replied to Vicky Laursen's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Only LPN opportunities in my area are MD office, nursing home, and home health. (Florida) I've worked all three in order, 14.00... 21.25

  7. Lpn To Bsn / Or Rn To Bsn

    Owloveyou replied to JoAnnS's topic in LPN to RN

    I'm going to attempt to answer some of that. No matter how many college classes you have taken you still need to take one of the programs, lpn-rn-bsn. With an LPN, you need pre-reqs to bridge to RN,...

  8. Shortest amount of time at job?

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

    If I remember you said it was your first job? I know my first job SUCKED but that's why it was the first. No one wanted to hire a nurse with no experience. I sucked it up, did my year, then found a...

  9. LPNs in home health in Illinois & telephone orders

    Owloveyou replied to ruthalittle's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    In our ALF's in F.L. the LPN's do not do any nursing care that is unrelated to the meds, like wound care, iv's, pt/inrs, etc. That's why the HH nurses are in. Here, it varies on the contracts the...

  10. Are nurses required to do HHA visits in your agency?

    Owloveyou replied to Debra,RN's topic in Home Health

    Did you ever have problems keeping the jobs separate? According to our agency both jobs can not be performed in the same day. I used to shower a lady in the AM then give her PM insulin, but they said...

  11. Are nurses required to do HHA visits in your agency?

    Owloveyou replied to Debra,RN's topic in Home Health

    Yes, I have been exploring other options I'm just one of those people who get comfortable in a place and don't leave even though I know I should. I always think, it COULD be worse... I at least have a...

  12. Cleaning my Littmann

    Owloveyou replied to Owloveyou's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

  14. Are nurses required to do HHA visits in your agency?

    Owloveyou replied to Debra,RN's topic in Home Health

    I am so glad this topic came up in the email. I am the lone LPN at the HHA. We have at this time ONE staff RN and ONE LPN doing visits. They can't seem to keep anyone. The two of us have been there...

  15. Help choosing a new stethoscope

    Owloveyou replied to Elizabeth E. RN's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Let me add in, I wouldn't recommend the breast cancer edition, or likely any other light colored tubing. My pink is now a dingy bluish/blackish/pinkish color and I haven't found a way to clean it. My...

  16. Help choosing a new stethoscope

    Owloveyou replied to Elizabeth E. RN's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Awesome, very glad to have helped! I also noticed some of the websites offer engraving... I don't remember this when I bought my first one 7 years ago. I would definitely pay the extra few dollars and...

  17. Help choosing a new stethoscope

    Owloveyou replied to Elizabeth E. RN's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I use the Littman Master Classic 2. (I believe) It is a solid silver head with no smaller bell. I've had three different Littmans and loved every one of them. I hear the best out of the master classic...

    Owloveyou replied to poohbh21's topic in LPN to RN

  22. Eager and Willing.. but very confused!

    Owloveyou replied to Owloveyou's topic in Ob/Gyn

    How funny, I have no recollection of posting this... 8 years ago! I have been an LPN for 6 years and have returned to this board for tips on the LPN to RN programs in the area. Turns out I love home...
