Hey nursstudent24, tried to PM you with no luck. Can you please PM me? I was looking into Ambria, but not so sure now after reading your post. Thanks.

Just starting to prepare for CPNE and was wondering if anyone has used Sheri's online workshop "solely" and passed. I would have loved to attend a live workshop but can't afford the traveling expenses and all.... would like to get some input/advice, ...

...lol..:)

Great to have you here, aspiringtoB, and welcome to AN:up: Is definitely the place to be, full of excellent tips/advise! I agree 100%, I too have found AN to be very informative! Yes, let us know how is going when you start with Sherri's; I too plan ...

Base on my understanding so far--Sheri’s online workshop is presented via recorded videos. I did not use her RN bridge program for my theory exams, so I really can’t speak to that. But, I agree that she does have positive reviews, and has a high pass...

as well as calling the ECE staff every chance I was allowed with my questions.. But, word to the wise, if you call them with a question then they know what your weaknesses are..For example, Respiratory Management. Don't be to shock if you see it in t...

Awesome! Glad to know, didn't know about that. My plan is to read the guide from cover to cover, and then focus on the critical elements portion of the guide. So glad to know that EC will review careplans for free. Thanks for the advise! :)

Seems like Rob's mnemonics is an added bonus, since you're recommending it, I think I will consider adding it to my CPNE prep and pay attention to the corrections as indicated. Thanks for the advice! :)

Thanks for the advice, and you are right about always checking to verify the info correlates with the CPNE study guide, as I have read some threads confirming your statement about "some things are missing." Good advice! I'll follow through:)

:balloons:CONGRATULATIONS

Thanks everyone for the great advice! I’ll definitely sign up with Sheri. I see some mentioned Rob’s workshop and I’m curious if the techniques differ compared with Sheri’s online videos. I just want to get familiar and comfortable with one that rel...

Congrats on your achievements thus far! Excelsior nursing program is a wonderful program as it allows the student the time to complete the exams while meeting other life obligations, however, it is by no means an "easy" program. You are responsible f...

Congratulations on your date! Good luck in your continued success!

I agree with bhanson, about doing what's best for you & also maintaining yr GPA. Depending on the school you're seeking entrance, most nursing schools tend to evaluate your science grades ONLY, in addition to any adopted entrance exam, e.g. NLN, ...

tms1980, i agree with you that the tone of chin up's response seems rather harsh. but, i just wanted to clarify what i believe the original poster meant --also, since the original poster is a new nurse she would benefit from it. from my understan...

Well, that could be good news for the facility, if there's no family contact or appointed state guardian. While this will help the facility to cover themselves from liability, it doesn't take away the fact that staff members involve will not be disci...

The greatest problem in this situation you described is that a fellow resident saw this happen, who appears to be cognitively alert, and whose account seems reliable. Moreso, the said patient has an injury suffered from a recent fall -- It depends on...

Based on my research, FCCA means Focused Clinical Competencies Assessment. This is a 4 credit assignment that is required after completion of all nursing theory exams, and before completion of the CPNE. FCCA is supposed to switch to computer version,...

Congrats on passing!!!!!!!!!! Good luck with the remaining exams! I'm sure you'll do great!! I'm taking LS1 on Friday. Feeling more confident each day:)

Try yr best to follow EC content guide, then focus on meds, functional assessment, sensory, end of life. EC Practice test was a huge help. 160q's, stay focus you'll do great!

Congratulations on passing!!!!!!!!:yeah: Great job! Scheduled to take it this week. Good luck with LS2! I'm sure you'll do great!

Is true that most schools do not distinguish online courses from regular courses on the transcript, I guess were it becomes tricky is when the course is being evaluated for transfer by the registrar of yr/the prospective school, who tends to review t...

Hi Nene, sorry you feel that way. I would say to STAY & try to fix yr working relationship as much as possible. After all, is just WORK. Health care sucks, you will find that will be the same in another facility/institution. Just do yr best &...

Thanks k9kabs..may decide to check it out if I get through studying the required chapters by Tuesday. How many practice questions are there overall? That could play a big part in my decision making. Good luck with LS2, I'm sure u'll do great!

Thanks for the positive energy k9kabs:) I see you also used http://www.nursing-practice-exams.com. Is it comparable to EC test. Do you recommend it? Or should I save the 29.99$
