Hi Rozdem, My main resource was the manual. I read it over and over and over again... I don't care for mneumonics. I feel that for me it's just one more thing to memorize. So, I wrote out all the AOC's in order in a way that would be easy to memoriz...

Hi Jerez01!I'm in Florida and, at the time, hoping for a spot in Naples. After waiting for longer that I wanted to and being advised by Excelsior that wait time might still be out 7 months for Naples, I chose Grady for being the one closest to me af...

Hi Mimi!I apologize to all... I actually gave "half" of the group's name... Lol!Correct name is "Let's Conquer the CPNE Beast Together".Just log in to FB and search for the group. If I remember correctly, it's an open group, but if it isn't, just se...

Hi RTFisher!I felt exactly the same way with the SG until a took Sheri Taylor's online workshop. I couldn't afford to travel to Atlanta for the hands on workshop, but I like to study on my own anyway, so the online one was perfect for me. It was d...

Thank you both for taking the time to answer :)I'm really excited about getting back to hospice nursing and hopefully this will be a good experience.Blessings!

Wow! No responses?! Anybody from another state willing to give any input? Thanks!

Just wanted to say THANK YOU to all those who helped me with this journey, with your posts, answers, and prayers. Excelsior is a very hard program, but I'm proof that it can be done.It took me about a year for all nursing courses (except the one the...

Yes!!! It DOES work!!!Tested Monday 8/21, shut off at 75, I'm thinking it was really hard and I either did great or I sucked so bad that the computer gave up on me...Did the PVT about 2 hours after I finished testing. Got the old, good pop up " Our ...
