    RNBSN88 replied to RNBSN88's topic in First Year After Licensure

    RNBSN88 replied to jtanga's topic in First Year After Licensure

    But it wouldn't be "below your license" a Graduate Nurse does not yet have a license until they pass NCLEX. So without any license I highly doubt you could work as a LPN. You could work as a Patient...

    RNBSN88 replied to Conan the Nurse's topic in General Nursing

    RNBSN88 replied to Conan the Nurse's topic in General Nursing

    RNBSN88 replied to JeanettePNP's topic in First Year After Licensure
