Volunteering...questions
Hello, I am very interested in volunteering at a hospital or anywhere really. I want to for a couple reasons one... is cause I would like to get a feel for what I'm doing inthe future. two..... I would like to start learning the environment early so I have a head start.. and three the most important reason is I want to figure out where I wanna work in the future. I like fast paced environments with lots of work ;P. So my questions to all of you are 1. Where would a good place to volunteer be? Of course a hospital but any other places? Any special departments? 2. Please give me a heads up on proper etiquite! I really would like to make a great first impression 3. I called a hospital and asked them about all this...its my dream place to work. very nice. And they have a month wait list for volunteers I would think they would want all they can get. Buut is this normal? Btw they want you to really commit like twenty hours a week which is hard to do while working and being a fulltime student. Is this normal? I'm thinking it could just be cause its the nicest hospital around maybe a lower quality hospital would be more leniant? 4. And my last and final question is... I understand that my health program advisor can answer this and I will be asking them but I want to know if volunteering normally counted as health care expierience? My shcool uses a point system and having been in the health care field for 6 months gives you three points so I would love to think 6 months volunteering could help. I would very much appreciate any answers from anyone or any input at all and thanks for your help

Future RN thinking of starting as a LPN
Thank you for letting me know what you think, I'm probably going to pass on the LPN program. Would you think that the 80% employment rate of the program is accurate?

Future RN thinking of starting as a LPN
Hello I am currently going to CSN to obtain my associates in nursing. I am still working on my prereq's and I am really eager to get started. I have read all over these forums that it is hard for someone to get a job with a bachelors, let alone a associates. My question is could I get hired if I was to obtain my CA (certification of achievement) as a LPN. If I was become an LPN how hard would it be to gain employment? I plan to continue going through school for my associates and after that my bachelors. But if I was to become a LPN where could I work possibly? And also what could I be paid (I would be ok with a little over minimum wage)? But please help with my questions. I would also like to add that the program guide for nursing for CSN says "Within 6 months of graduation, at least 80% of all graduates who desire employment will be employed in the field of nursing." I just dont see how that could be true with how these forums look.
