1. Southern Cal - Please help!!!

   jelly replied to jelly's topic in California Nursing

   ok, one more question. Going off Salary.com, I was assuming I'd start out as a new LVN at around $35/year. After reading some posts on here, I'm wondering if I could make more than @$17/hr, especially...

2. Southern Cal - Please help!!!

   jelly replied to jelly's topic in California Nursing

   thanks for the replies. I actually talked to University of Phoenix awhile back, they only do RN (Associates) to BSN. Not LVN to RN I can't believe nobody has yet thought to offer online classes and...

   I also just found out about mount St. Mary's evening/weekend program from reading a post. I went to their website and they aren't even accepting applications for Fall 06 transfer students! If they...

   thank you for your response. An online bridge program would be great! Do you know of any such program? I inquired about one and they responded with one sentence that my state didn't accept the online...

   I just don't know what to do! I'm an LVN, with no experience. I took the boards in CO and got licensed and then moved to CA. By the time I got my license, I was already employed in a non-healthcare...

7. What do patients say that irks you?

   jelly replied to NurseforPreggers's topic in Ob/Gyn

   That's exactly what I was thinking. Nurses are human also and it is very normal to do your job, and do it well, and still need to *vent*. This is an appropriate place to vent. You know you can't say...

   jelly posted a topic in California Nursing

   I live in Ontario and work in Pasadena (but I'm hoping to find an LVN job closer to home). Anyone know of any schools that have the LVN to RN program that has classes and clinicals at night or on the...

   jelly replied to Faye714's topic in California Nursing

   Well, I never once considered LVN. I also have always had to work full time and took classes part time for an eternity. Finally started a 2 yr RN program even though I had so many BSN pre-req's, I...

    jelly replied to BSS25's topic in California Nursing

    as for jobs, look at Careerbuilder.com, hotjobs.com and some other links I recently heard about are nursefinders.com, hirenursing and healthcareers. Due to my resume on careerbuilder.com, I get...

    jelly replied to BSS25's topic in California Nursing

    Hi, I'm an LVN who moved here about 8 months ago from Colorado. I haven't actually received my CA license yet so I haven't begun working but I have already looked into a few schools and I know they...

14. Thinking about Nursing

    jelly replied to thebutrfly's topic in General Nursing

    Another quick thought for you. If you aren't completely sure Nursing will be for you and you've already spent 3 years in school, maybe you should just do the LVN first and make sure you like it before...

15. Thinking about Nursing

    jelly replied to thebutrfly's topic in General Nursing

    Maybe you should look at school's nursing programs online that you might be interested in going to, and see what pre-req's are required and how many more you would need, and then talk to a counselor....
