  4. I wish RN schools would quit teaching the RN students LPN's can't do anything!

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Wannabeeinscrubs's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    i agree! I had my lpn license before my rn license! Of course, so many things in my state don't make sense right

  5. I wish RN schools would quit teaching the RN students LPN's can't do anything!

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Wannabeeinscrubs's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    In my state, if you are an lpn, you cannot say "I'm a nurse". You MUST say "I'm an lpn". Only an rn can call themselves a nurse with no

  6. What is the politically correct term for "nurse"?

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to DanielCA's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Well, I can honestly say I spent more time reading OP's first post (not the entire thread mind you), than I have put time into thinking about the topic as a whole. Sorry OP, you've got too much time...

  7. I need all white leather shoes for my program. Any suggestions please?

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to unknowngenius10's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I have only ever worn nursing shoes. Tennis shoes do NOT give my back the support it deserves. I've always found NurseMates, Alegria or Dansko have white leather shoes in their lineups, they've all...

  11. Need Help!!

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Undecided013's topic in Nursing Career

    If in fact you decide to pursue a career in nursing, losing that chip on your shoulder will be incredibly helpful. It wasn't so much that I was correcting your mistake, more like clarifying and not...

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to melme's topic in General Nursing

    I don't have an LPN license anymore, so that's a huge problem. And no, I would not accept an LPN position as an RN. As a PP pointed out, that'd be taking away an LPN position FROM an

  15. Getting unemployment for called off

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Undecided013's topic in Nursing Career

    To clarify, she never said many of the opinions HERE are biased. I think here you will hear how it is firsthand, from actual LPN's and RN's, that doesn't mean at all that those opinions are

  21. What did I do wrong?

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to mzsuccess's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    There you go. You are not allowed to TOUCH medications---any nurse that tells you to do this is setting you up for failure. You KNOW you're not supposed to do it, yet did so anyway, so my sympathy...

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Wannabeeinscrubs's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    In my state LPN's may NOT do initial assessments. These things can differ from state to state you know. What one RN is saying about what an LPN can do may absolutely be correct from where s/he...
