I heard that Parkland has stopped hiring those with their ADN. This is a new thing. Can anyone confirm/deny? I can't get in touch with the nurse recruiter.

I just got a hold of her. It is true, they no longer accept ADNs. Very upsetting. I wanted to work there so bad.

I don't know if you started the program or not but I graduated from Platt in 2012 and as a single mother I'm very glad that I did it. If you have any questions please let me know.

I attended Platt's LPN program (graduated 2012) and went directly into working at an acute care hospital. I felt prepared and my other classmates did as well. I'm glad that I did it so that I could go ahead and start the program instead of waiting ar...

Hi, yes I graduated from Platt and it was tough as the teacher turnover rate was very high so we had to get accustomed to every new teacher that came and change how we learned things and they made a lot of changes during our time there but we made it...

I graduated from there last year and paid 18k. All depends on if you qualify for grants.

Has anyone graduated from the LPN-BSN program at OU, specifically the distant sites? How did you like it?

I took 3 q reviews and I think my highest was a 72 and I passed at the minimum questions. You will be fine :)

Still looking for anyone who has done this program.

Still looking for info!!

Just wanted to offer a few words of encouragement to those who are struggling nursing students wondering if they will make it through. I am 24, mother to a wonderful 8 year old daughter. I started LPN school in Sept. 2010 which was 3 months after I g...

I am a LPN student who is trying to choose which job to go to when I graduate: Job A: Med/surg floor at a hospital where I work at as a tech for the past year and a half, excellent coworkers that are very knowledgeable and helpful. Approx. 12 wks ori...

Unfortunately not. There is a LPN here who was a tech on this floor for 6 years and still started off at $12/hr base.

Yes I'm in OK, but job B is a long term acute care facility, not just LTc.

Thanks guys for your input. I'm worried about burning bridges and losing out on a job in the future if I need it as well so there's a lot I have to take into consideration however it IS considerably less pay. If anyone has any other insight please le...

Bumping this. Still trying to get feedback

How is it?

I did a search but couldn't find anything on this. I am a LPN student and at my facility LPNs can only work in Med/Surg and the ER. I would like to work in the NICU when I become a RN. I have seen that some facilities prefer people who go straight i...

What are the best NNP programs?

Thank you prmenrs!! That makes a lot of sense. Would you choose Med/Surg or ER as my first job or either one?

I mean where are the best NNP programs in the U.S. This is for when I am able to become one. I am just a nursing student now.

Well I transferred to a different campus and will start a month earlier! I start Sept. 13th instead of Oct. 11th and I will graduate Oct. 12, 2011!

I start Sept. 13th! I'm so nervous!

I am a tech on a med/surg unit at a hospital. I will start LPN school in Oct. and plan on working at this hospital when I graduate. However, I found out last night that LPNs can work in the ER at the hospital where I work at. Should I work in med/sur...
