Least stressful would probably be an LVN in a school district. You're not the "School Nurse" though, the RN is. My first job was an LVN with my local school district, most of the school districts in and around my county dont require experience (you u...

I am currently working in a school district as an LVN, of course under the Credintialed "School Nurse" (RN). There are also health aids. For invasive things like insulin, caths, gtube, etc only the LVN or RN handles it. For schools with kids with no ...

As a previous poster said in CA for the LVN our names wont show up on the website until we get our results and send a check to them and wait AGAIN.. Lots of waiting! I took my NCLEX PN on the 17th so we are about on the same timeline..they were supe...
