I was in a similar situation, and told them I was uncomfortable with being supervisor at that time, to summarize... However, I. Feel they just need a body with an rn license, for regulatory purposes, but like anything the choice is always yours in w...

It's possible, and I think the best person who can tell you if you can or can't is you. What I discovered was that finding reasons for not doing well in the past is like "reading" it is good for gaining facts and knowledge, but the understanding ha...

Prepare to get good sleep before the exam, chamomile tea and such and be ready to pass

"You will be what you will to be; Let failure find its false content In that poor word, 'environment,' But spirit scorns it, and is free..." ...

Thank you lovlies! :)

Well I just took the exam last Friday (10/24), but have not received my results yet. However, seeing that time is of the essence here maybe I can help a little. There are many great threads on here about what books and programs to use and you alread...

Congratulations Ms. Brown! Yah, I don't want to say if I passed or not until I know for sure. I checked the BON a few times here in CA, but like you said it is the weekend, plus I think the hard copy results are supposed to arrive in six weeks. He...

It was okay, caught a little bit of the sniffle and cough nothing too serious though and the computer screen was a bit higher up on the desk than I was used too, but helped me keep good posture and stay awake. Took it in Anaheim. How was it for you?

I took it today. I received a seat at about 830 am after checking in.

A lot of things can affect how well you do in school or on a test, and not doing well has no bearing on intelligence... There is a story about a baker who lived in a time of great political turmoil. One day she was walking down the road, the same r...

You are effected because you have a heart and that is a strength disguised as a weakness. You are also right, you have no choice, but to give it your all. Everything seems to have fallen apart and you feel alone, things seem barren and bleak... You...

To preface what I am going to say, I was by far the best clinical or lecture student, but what I really feel I am good at is "sucking". I think it takes a different mindset to know that there is a lack in whatever thing that is done. I think if you...

Whatever you believe, see, and research as the best choice maybe the best thing to do is just start chipping away at it in a way that allows you to maximize learning the material and letter grade so as to meet your own learning needs and meeting the ...

Drift with your dreams as you have achieved two of the three. And maybe remember, you come first. There are quotes and sayings that say "take care of yourself first and the rest will take care of itself" or something along those lines. So maybe i...

Hello new CNA here, I am curious about CNA starting wages, I was offered a job at a skilled nursing facility at the starting wage of $10.00/hr I have worked many manual labor jobs and this is about the same starting wage as the jobs I had previously....

What I have realized about Nursing School so far is that it is not hard per say, but it does work different parts of the mind and the way thoughts are acted upon. There are also aspects of an individual that are necessary that some people do not have...

You are proof. As long as there is breathe there is hope. From here on out no matter what happens it will remain so, for every one step back there will be two forward, maybe even a few leaps. Beautiful, amazing. Congratulations!

Go. I hope it changes you for the better, I hope the experiences and people touch your heart and you theirs. If you do go or don't go. I hope you find meaning and purpose in whatever you do, and if you are struggling now, I am rooting for you. Wh...

Way to go. Congratulations!!

Every persons experience is different, some say it is easy others, difficult. From my perspective.... Buckle up, grip the railings tight and hold on for dear life. Edit: Congratulations on passing! And good luck to you here on out.

I do not know if it is a male thing or not, but I lean heavily towards the "Warrior Ethos", and I firmly believe this can be brought into nursing, or maybe this is why I am drawn to nursing. Nursing from what I perceive is a profession that stands ...

I am really sorry the Clinical Nurse said that to you, but think of it this way, eight days of continuing to give your best- that is all. You have done well up until now, not counting the things you have had to do before entering nursing school. Yo...

First I have to say that I have been a CNA for about 5 months, I have done many other things, but my respect for CNA's has gone way up; and not because I currently am a CNA . Any hoot, I am working the 3-11 shift and have been getting a somewhat regu...

Thank you everyone for the replies.:) @MissMcCoy "What kind of paitent load do you have? What area are you working in? " I usually get 13 residents, but it's really usually 12 complete care and 1 self-care/ supervision. The residents at the facility...

If you love the path you are taking, I say pursue it with all your heart. There will always be nay sayers and negative energy, but love and courage go together, and courage conquers fear. I believe if you stick out LVN school you will find a way to ...
