  1. Lol I'm on my mobile with autocorrect but thanks for the correction , I guess we are typing APA style papers on allnurses professor. I am supportive , you are the one telling people to quit and not looking at the whole picture . Your post proves it a...
  2. And before being a bully and giving zero supportive advice maybe you should be the one quiting . Nurses such as yourself with this toxic attitude are the reason why floor nurses are running away from the bedside and are going into advance practice /...
  3. Wrong , you don't have to follow orders if they aren't appropriate . OP stated patient was hypotensive, she could've called the MD and ask for clarification before administering. The way you come off is that you must follow MD orders no matter how ...
  4. Reading through this thread I'm just disgusted on how nurses are bashing the OP, it's obvious OP is burnt out from working the floor. I won't judge you since I use to work a post op unit and dealt with the same issues and see your side . I wouldn't ...
  5. Failed pn 1st try feeling useless

    My advice would be to do as many questions as possible and look at the rationales. It's all about how to pick and see what the questions ask. All the knowledge is in your head and to review everything would be too much information. Focus on your w...
  6. New Graduate LPN needs help finding job in New Jersey

    Hi Helen , I went though the same frustration of not being able to find work after graduation. It took almost 8 months to find work. Now that the holidays are approaching a lot of facilities are looking for per diem nurses to cover for their on sta...
  7. First nursing job = Nursing shock! Need advice please.

    I also wanted to add that to use your cnas to your advantage. They are your eyes and ears on the floor , help them and they will return the favor. It's impossible to check all the v/s while doing med pass , that's why you can delegate these tas...

    Irene it will get better. I was in your shoes once , new grad at a facility with only 3 day orientation facing the same problems. Was floated around dif floors with 40 pts only I as charge nurse and an RN supervisor who was gone most of the time on...
  9. Rockland Community College Spring 2013

    Study from the NLN book its really good, I scored really high in the science portion studying from that book. The Math is algebra and geometry high school level math and English was substituting words knowing the meaning and word roots. I didn't ge...
  10. Getting a Boost Because You Are A Minority

    It is the same program you just get advance standing as an LPN and can apply at any semester, it's not a different program. I can compare because I was told I was jumping the gun, wouldn't he be jumping the gun by applying as well?? The requirement...
  11. Getting a Boost Because You Are A Minority

    I have to disagree about the preferential treatment for being minority statement. I recently applied to an LPN to RN bridge and let me tell you the nursing department is majority white. They have preference for their own applicants and don't favor ...
  12. I did a trade school and now im regretting it so much. I was half way done with my PCT when I applied to an LPN school and got accepted. Fast forward a year 1/2 and Im 23K in debt and no job! I been 3 months out of school and only 1 job interview ...
  13. Don't get your license in NY. The job market for LPNs is horrible out here, I have my LPN and im 2 months into looking for work with no success. I speak Spanish fluently, did my IV, BCLS cert classes, and have prior CNA experience but no faciliti...
  14. How to handle lazy LPN's on the team

    Uh no if you read my post I said I was given an iv while standing because the person didnt want to be bothered with doing it the proper way. I still have pictures and it's still there if you want to see redhead_nurse. Smdh
  15. Where can a new LPN grad get a job?

    Mita I'm in the same situation . Just got my lpn license and started my pre reqs for rn . No luck in finding an lpn job every place wants 1 yr experience.
  16. How to handle lazy LPN's on the team

    I have to disagree with the LPNs being lazy and having more credentials meaning your better statement. I know a lot of RNs who are rotten and lazy and could give 2 craps about the patient, I live in NYC and in the city hospital you see it all the ti...

  18. Being Gay and a Male Nursing Student

    I'm not flamboyant neither but what does that have to do with anything. That statement sounds so ignorant and the reason why people discriminate. I respect everyone's culture, religion , and race no matter what. That's why I became a nurse because I ...

  21. The Center For Allied Nursing Program In NJ

    Hey babynurse, I can only speak from my experience and the school is good if you are dedicated to your studies and you give it 100%. Most of the teachers really care about teaching the students and want to see you pass , especially 1st and 2nd Tr...
  22. St. Paul's School of Nursing Fall 2012

    congrats victory, I scheduled an appointment for tomorrow . How soon from the appointment did you sit for hesi? did you have to give a deposit to hold a spot? I am undecided if I want to do ADN or BSN since there is a LPN to BSN program called Moll...
  23. Paramedics rank higher than LPNs?

    I think the comparison is so unfair and quiet disrespectful to the LPNs on this site. I dont see people posting on allparamedics.com. This is allNURSES.com . Why the OP didn't compare ADN nurses V. Paramedics? OP sounds like a person who couldn't...
