  1. I heard about this school from a couple of nurses at a facility I used to work at as a CNA. They told me it was only 1 LPN year program and the only thing you had to do to get in was have a HS diploma, pass a PSB test and complete and interview with ...

  4. Latoya's Health Education and Training Center

    I graduated Latoya's October 2010 and just recently took and passed my nclex on the first try. I had 85 questions. All in all I had a good experience from Latoya's. It was a bit disorganized but I am forever grateful for them.
  5. Pre nursing vs nursing which one is more difficult?

    Noyesno hit the nail right on the head...LOL If you thought that A&P was hard (just an example) wait until you start med/surge. Nursing is defiantly harder and it takes a lot of time and dedication. Many many sleepless nights studying, careplans,...
  6. Clinicals ---

    I agree with That Guy. Note cards really won't help when you are on the floor. Just don't freak out and remember the things that you learned in theory. Plus you will have a clinical instructor there who will help if you have any questions. Your bigge...
  7. Jail/Prison Nursing

    Hi I have four months until I am finished with my LPN course. I was considering going into jail or prison nursing. I was wondering how the pay is and if it's dangerous. I know that it could possibly be but I just need to have a piece of mind. When c...
  8. Jail/Prison Nursing

    Thanks a lot for the info. But I agree 20 bucks isn't a lot for a RN. There's a long term care facility near my house that starts LPNs off at 25. 30. I am really interested in jail nursing so maybe I could do it on weekends or something.

  11. Latoya's Health Education and Training Center

    Yes you do need a high school diploma. Thats all. You take A&P in the program but no micro. You don't need any prereq's to get into the program. I hope this helps.

  14. Latoya's Health Education and Training Center

    The PSB test is just a competency test. It had four sections math, reading, biology and nursing competency on it. The tuition for the up coming year is 14,000 dollars. Financial aid doesn't cover this program. NWLB will. I only got 5,000 but that's b...

  23. American Medical Careers in Flint, MI

    I saw someone else mention this but I am currently attending Latoya's besides the horrible unprofessional name it is a good school. I do think that I am getting a stellar education from there and it was only 13,000 dollars for me to attend. It's in S...
