  1. LTC LPN's...how many patients do you have??

    knottygirl posted a topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Hey, I was reading some of the posts, and I remember my days as a CNA and the patient-load I had, yes after a while it did get easier, but I'm wondering how many patients you have at an LTC unit....

  2. Savannah Tech-lpn program

    knottygirl posted a topic in Georgia Nursing

    knottygirl posted a topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

  4. Savannah Tech-lpn program

    knottygirl replied to knottygirl's topic in Georgia Nursing

    They haven't talked much about what it actually means, as far as the semester switch. If I turn in my data sheet in March for entry to the lpn this fall, and it starts in August, will it still be one...

    knottygirl replied to knottygirl's topic in Georgia Nursing

    knottygirl replied to Astoria's topic in General Nursing

    Youre right about that, when I watched the elections this year both Fayette and Jefferson were blue, and Lexington almost always has a blue mayor. I guess what I mean concerning something to do is...

  8. fighting slave wages! for home care /direct care workers

    knottygirl replied to thomasbrooks07's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Maybe I'm off on some "other" but I think some of you guys are missing the point. It's not about quitting and working somewhere else. I *think* she's saying that because of the schedule she works...

    knottygirl replied to crosstrainer's topic in Nursing Career

    from what i understand about nursing (I'm not a nurse, just a student), but from what i understand you'd be doing great to just get in where you fit in. A lot of nurses are having a hard time finding...

  11. Louisville vs Lexington

    knottygirl replied to Astoria's topic in General Nursing

  15. I have LOST the will to study....

    knottygirl replied to Dizzy Lizzy 1980's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Someone said long ago that the way to study is to stare at material for hours on end. People say "i studied 5 hours straight" like that's awesome. In agreement to another poster, you should...

    knottygirl replied to anonymous1919's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Well, I tell you what, I'm southeast Ga (Savannah) and the lpns get paid pretty low here. It's crazy that southern IN and ky get paid pretty highly compared to GA when GA has a higher cost of living....

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

    Wow, now that's just crazy. What's even worse if they don't approve OT. Wow, I could definitely see how that's frustrating. I don't know though, I don't know if I'd rather be a CNA, being a CNA is...

    knottygirl replied to reeta116's topic in Georgia Nursing
