    CPNE site Queens or Utica?

    Kamilah Coney replied to Ultraposh's topic in Excelsior College

    I am nowhere close to being eligible for the CPNE. I live in Florida and more than likely will not be able to afford traveling and lodging costs in order to test in New York. Is the talk true...

    Nervous/Scared

    Kamilah Coney replied to Moving Foward's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Having been there, my best advice to you is to take it one day at a time. And I too with Hadassah16 absolutely do not share your grades with others. While in school I tended to notice students trying...

    Do you get called when your shift is cancelled?

    Kamilah Coney replied to TajoRN's topic in Agency Nurses

    The coordinating staff at the agency I work for has a tendency to call late when a shift is cancelled. Sometimes it's the agency's fault and sometimes it's the facility's fault. Either way, if I show...
