CPNE and gloves
I bought the CPNE kit from excelsior, surgical gloves 7 1/2 and the clean gloves (no size indicated), they're too long to fit my fingers and I am concerned because when I do my wound packing for instance, the glove fingers are floppy and gets in the way. I bought 6 1/2 from a local pharmacy but they are so hard to put on, too tight and takes too much time. Any idea about the gloves they provide at the CPNE?

Patient 'found' my number on the internet...
Is this even a big deal? You freaked out for nothing dude. Just tell the person you are uncomfortable that she is calling your number. If she is normal she'd stop calling. If she calls again, just block or ignore. She'd eventually give up. Duh. No need to report unless she becomes a threat to your life, finances, etc. No big deal for me. And come on...you are MALE and you freak out for nothing. I find your reaction over the top and weird actually, not the other way around. If you badmouth like that in your home for nothing, I'd be ****** if you are my nurse.

Anybody had a problem with World Education Services?
I am an LVN trying to get my ASN with Excelsior, had my foreign school college credits sent for evaluation with WES. I was asked to submit another copy of the transcript because it wasn't legible. I called my school and the registrar said it is legible. Anyway, so I had to resend another copy. I got another email a few days after telling me that my evaluation is on hold because they need a syllabus of my college education. It is very frustrating because it is time consuming and they could have informed me earlier on that it is necessary. I had my my transcript evaluated by a different agency for NCLEX and they did not look for a syllabus. It seems like there is always a reason for delay. I also requested them last week to provide a sealed copy to excelsior when the evaluation is done and at that time they are still working on it. I received an email last week that I have to mail them back the attachment and provide 47 dollars for that extra service, until then they would be holding the processing of my evaluation. I don't get it why it had to be held. My common sense tells me that if I were the evaluating agency, I could continue working on the evaluation since the service has been paid already and whatever additional request regardless of a pending fee can follow up. I have read some terrible review about the agency and it's just bad that I didn't browse before I made business with them.
