You have just inspired me... thank you

Have you thought about hospice? Im in LTC and we have hospice nurses coming in all day long to set up new pt under hospice and planning their care.. give it a shot you might enjoy it

I have been an LPN for four years how it works is by your years with experience one to three years say for example 18 to 19 w/o differential and 3 to 5 years 20 to 22 5 to 7 23 to 25 ... 7 to 10 x amt of dollars... There are LPNS making 30+ a hou...

Way to Go ! You are now on your way ~~:balloons:

At our facility we take our med book after the med pass is over and pass it to the other team nurses and she scans the mars to see if we have any open holes and I scan the other nurses MAR for holes. It works rather well. And it only takes 5 mins or ...

I started as a new Lpn at 18.50 ph plus $3.00 shift diff 2 years later Im now at 21.ph $3.00 shift diff and 1.50 extra ph for med surg unit...

Sorry Ladies but I hate to tell you.. it gets worse when your out there in the real world!

Lpn Here ! 2 years exp $20.65 plus 3 .50 shift diff and lots of overtime if you want it !

I live in Massachusetts and right now I make $24.00 per hour with 2 years experience, made 56k last year !

I work with a nurse who is originally from the Dominican. She plans to go back there after the birth of her child to practice ..

First thing I would do is knock on her door and ask if she had a minute or two to chat and get it out and find out if it was something you said or did to offend her and go from there you cannot continue to avoid each other.

I would never take care of 60 pts and jeopardize my license that I worked so hard for ! On a 60 bed unit we have 2 Lpns and sometimes we say we need a 3rd, but that will never happen. Im sure it is "doable" but to be responsible for 60 pts scares me

Its a very intense program that requires a tremendous amount of discipline And be prepared to miss a lot of family events but keep your eye on the prize and you can and will make it ! Good Luck

one website you can go to is www.freeceus.com

Heck No !!! I was 49 when I graduated from nursing school .. its a long road but well worth it.. Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but the moments that take our breath away !

Way to Go !!!:balloons: :balloons:

Keep Running And Dont Look Back !

Fairly new Lpn here I work in a LTC facility and I make $25 per hour and anything over 8 hrs is time and 1/2 Yesterday I worked a double and it was a $500.00 day for me... I am IV certified, but unfortunately we get very few orders for Iv's, and...

I passed at 85 questions! Good Luck!

How are you dressed for the interview? Jean or Nice pants and shirt or skirt... I went to the very first place and got hired on immediately, they will orientate you for weeks before you are one the floor with 20 patients..you will shadow the nurse ...

Right to refuse

Seriously, the key is to being organized ! Good Luck !

Your going to find out real soon!!!! :chuckle
