  1. PRN Nurse?

    What is the difference between an LPN and a Licensed Practical PRN Nurse and an RN and a Registered PRN nurse? What does the PRN mean? Thanks
  2. Excelsior A&P exam...

    I've been studying for this darn A&P exam since the beginning of April. I originally scheduled it for April 26th, then changed it to May 1, then May 8th, now I just changed it this morning til May 14th. I've been going off the content guide and...
  3. Passed NC1 today!

    I passed NC1 today with a B! I'm pleased with that. Sometimes the answer sticks right out and other times you're trying to decide between 2 or 3 answers...of course that's with any test! It feels good to have the 1st test over with! Now onto NC3!
  4. Took NCLEX-PN today...

    Well I took the NCLEX-PN today. I sure don't feel like I did very good. I got 85 questions...took me about 65-75 minutes. I guess I did really good or really bad since I only got 85 questions. I know i got the last question right but I know that ...
  5. Differences-LTC vs acute

    I'm a new RN with 2 years exp. as an LPN. I went to the hospital when I graduated and became an RN...but have just taken a job in LTC, haven't started yet. I'm on the southeastern side of the state and will be making $2 more an hour than what I was...

  9. Where to buy scrubs online?

    I always wear dickies. I've been buying brand new ones on Ebay. There's a store on their that only sells Dickies. She will get you what you want if she doesn't have it. Free shipping too. I am thinking of trying the Urbane scrubs though, they a...
  10. and the survey says....

    My boyfriend went with me. I didn't want to go alone. It was a 5+ hour drive and he helped keep me sane!
  11. Got my ATT letter today!! :)

    Wow, that was quick!! Good luck! You'll have RN behind your name soon enough!!
  12. How far does everyone commute to work?

    I just took a job thats 30 miles one way...takes about 45-50 minutes. The drive stinks and i have like 5 hospitals that are closer...but I wanted to work in the ICU.
  13. In mourning and trying to study for boards...

    I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my mother unexpectedly in November and my brother unexpectedly in April. You'll pull through this. If you need to reschedule, there is nothing wrong with that. You do what you need to do during this time. My p...
  14. I Got A Date!!!!!

    I think there were 7 of us the date I tested. Everyone was still there on Sunday. Another girl and I were out by around 9:30ish, so I'm not really sure who ended up passing, except the 2 of us.
  15. I Got A Date!!!!!

    Woohoo!! I tested in Utica back in March. Great experience! The CE's and CA were wonderful. They were really encouraging and you could tell they wanted you to succeed. The hospital is older, so their isn't much as far as electronic equipment. Y...
  16. Sorry about your interview! How rude of her to take a call during your interview. Hopefully your interview tomorrow will go much better. I had interviewed at a well known hospital last week and they called me Friday to inform me that I didn't get ...
  17. The CPNE is going up to $1900

    Now you have the ridiculous wait for the CPNE. You could still get done a little sooner or about the same time you would have with a traditional school though.
  18. HELP! Stressing Over NCLEX Results

    Way to go!! Congrats!!! :yeah: By the way, I felt exactly the same way after my LPN boards. I thought I had failed, but I think everyone thinks that. Now i'm about ready to sit for my RN boards...just waiting for my ATT. Congrats again!
  19. The CPNE is going up to $1900

    Very true. They should be including the hotel room for that price!
  20. The CPNE is going up to $1900

    That really stinks! As if things aren't expensive enough! The only thing I can suggest is to pay for any exams that you can before July 1st. I know...easier said then done. Especially since that's only 5 days away!
  21. HELP! Stressing Over NCLEX Results

    Not really sure what that means. But it's normally 48 hours before it would be posted on the BON's website. I guess it depends on the state though. You might want to call them. I don't know if they will tell you anything though.
  22. Who will buy tuition forgiveness in PA?

    I didn't like it. It was extremely boring. Kinda hard to believe for a nursing job. I was an LPN at the time and on the floor I was on, I was more or a less a CNA. I don't mind giving baths and such, but I was lucky if I passed meds once a month....
  23. Who will buy tuition forgiveness in PA?

    I worked for the VA for a very short time. I'm pretty sure it's 3 years you have to give them.
