  1. Southern Cal - Please help!!!

    jelly posted a topic in California Nursing

    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...

  2. 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...

  3. 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...

  4. Southern Cal - Please help!!!

    jelly replied to jelly's topic in California Nursing

    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...

  5. Southern Cal - Please help!!!

    jelly replied to jelly's topic in California Nursing

    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...

  6. LVN to RN nights/weekends?

    jelly replied to jelly's topic in California Nursing

    Hi Kittytn, I sent you a private message

  7. LVN to RN nights/weekends?

    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...

  8. 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...

  9. LVN/RN/Working while in school- What to do! :)

    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...

  10. How in the world do you make it in CA?

  11. How in the world do you make it in CA?

    jelly replied to IndyGypsyNurse's topic in California Nursing

    I just moved to the LA area and commute 1 1/2 hrs to and from work each day and still pay twice as much for a condo than I did for my house in colorado. Don't get me

  12. New To California.

    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...

  13. New To California.

    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....

  16. Weeding out of nursing students

    jelly replied to Tweety's topic in General Students

    My school wasn't absolutely horrible, but we thought so at the time. It sounds like giving actual (previous) NCLEX questions on the very first test, which we thought was insane, is part of that...

  17. Why so many quit during first year?

    jelly replied to LouisianaNurse2006's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Don't forget that if you go to work in a certain area of nursing and don't like it... maybe it's not nursing all together, but just that field you don't like. There are too many opportunities. If you...

  18. Salary.com seems inflated!

  19. New LVN, is L&D realistic?

    jelly posted a topic in Ob/Gyn

    Hi everyone, my name is Kelly. I was in an RN program two years ago but was only able to finish half due to working full time and then moving. Anyhow, I got my LVN certificate and got licensed in CO,...

  21. Hi, new, 2 questions

    jelly posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

    Hi all. I just finished my first year of an ASN program and am planning on taking the LPN board this summer. After reading some of the posts, I'm really nervous about it! Any pointers? Also, at the...

  22. Hi, new, 2 questions

    jelly replied to jelly's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Thank you for your response, Since I'm a CO resident and I live in CO, I figured I had to apply here first. I don't plan on working as an LPN here, but I guess I figured it was a good back up. But,...
