I really thought this person was trolling at first. But just give it a try, go back to school for your RN and come back and post in this thread and you will see why a LPN gets paid what they are paid. And you will definitely see why a RN is paid what...
The results are available 48 hours from the start time of your scheduled test. I took mine on a Friday at noon and the results were available Sunday at 1 pm.
I'm sorry that the post wasn't working. I posted from my phone. And I don't care what is discouraged, I could not not and would not stand by and watch a 70 year old woman get beat with an IV pole. My conscious would not let me sleep at night. Did t...
I know exactly what you mean especially in that hospital. But it's disgusting that that happened to her in a job where she is there to care for people. I can't man...
Hi all I just wanted to know if anyone here applied for Bayada's nurse residency position for peds? It's a new program for them. For people with questions, it's a new program they are starting. It's basically a nursing fellowship. For more informati...
Not so good but I think it's because it's still early in the year and a lot of places don't have their budgets yet. So probably in the next two months things should start opening up. Hopefully
What about people asking for OP's notes and posting their email, full name and phone number in threads. Or blatantly asking people to share their study materials that are very costly.
I never received a call back. I just read the description on the website. It seemed cool that they're providing training. Did you get an interview of sorts?
I have to disagree....with one of the above mentioned for the experienced nurse lol. Not only can the experienced nurse hear an alarm they can hear an alarm around the corner down the hall and know if it's bed A or B. Just my personal experience with...

Well happy to finally say 6 months after passing my boards(LPN)I landed a job last week. I called a LTC facility and was transferred to the staffing coordinator's voicemail. She called back a little while later and I asked if they were hiring and als...
Sorry Siverdragon, didn't realize I typed a name:( Let me clarify a few things: you pay a $2000 deposit upon being accepted to hold your seat you pay $10 for your photo ID on orientation day That's what I paid, I had FA and Loans. I didn't get full f...
You apply for financial before starting the program and that will be your last time applying. But it covers all three semesters. It is based on your income and financial need. The program totals roughly around 14,000. Financial aid usually covers hal...

It really boggles my mind when people don't study and get a poor grade or fail fo that matter, and look as if they don't know what they did/didn't do. I know everyone is different in their learning styles, but you need to be honest with yourself. Why...
Posted this in the general discussion area first: Hi everyone, I just have a question. I'm a new LPN, graduated last summer and passed my boards last October. Anyway here's the issue. I'm pretty much on good terms with the nurse recruiter at my old j...
OMG ladies hugs to you all! I swear I was sitting in class tonight after another day of feeling defeated. I basically said to myself today, that I was just going to give up and if they wanted they would contact me. Well anyway about half way through ...
I won't be able to get the manager's email in this instance. And I feel really bad calling and calling the nurse recruiter, like I said she's extremely busy and makes it known. I've left messages for her, but I only speak with her if I happen to call...
