I would like to be your study buddy.

Thank you to everyone for your advice except for that one individual but anyway the students may or may not be able to take the exam in their language but if they can perfect.......BUT what will happen when they obtain employment. I have asked to set a meeting with the director to see what can be done. Once again thx for the advice and I'll keep everyone posted

How dare you reply in such a negative manner. If you can't say anything nice do not say anything at all. I am already upset with myself for even replying to your ignorant comment. Smh I never knew this website was based on negativity than positive.

I am teaching a new CNA class. This program is new at the school where it is taking place. The issue that I'm having is that the class contains a fair amount of students that do not speak English very well ( that's me being nice ) the students need an explanation for every other word which I don't mind doing BUT it takes away from teaching what I need to teach to the students to become a nursing assistant. The location where the school is located primarily has a certain ethnicity, which I prefer not to say. I am thinking of telling the director of the school to have the students take an ESL course before taking any other courses. I personally feel as If the students are not understanding anything. Any advice besides the what I have in mind to do would be greatly appreciated. Thx

Thank you

I am not an expert I am just suggesting something's give hospitals a break for now try Assited livings, Homecare, Correctional Facilities, LTC's, School Nurse positions. Sometimes we are tunnel visioned and/or afraid to step out and try something new. Pls don't bite my head off just sharing some ideas lol. Wish you the best of luck

Greetings to all Does anyone know of any Lpn to Rn bridge in the tri state area that is one year long ? Going to a college would require me to start from scratch as if I am new to the health field. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thx in advance

Hi does your school have a lpn-rn bridge program. I went on their website but couldn't get info on what I needed, like how long is the program, do they have evening or weekend classes ?

Where in NY are you located ? Upstate or within the 5 boroughs

K thx.

Each1teach1. If you don't mind answering are you an LPN or RN ? How how did you get an interview ?

Thank you very much. I'll keep you updated on this new journey of mine

Hello there I am starting a new job at a correctional facility next week, does anyone have any advice pls ?

Decades ago ??? Is NYC in a diff era lol but hey I can't talk for the rest of the country

I do know that while you are in the rn program after taking medsurg you can sit for your lpn licensure but ask your school for some info they should be able to tell you.

You will always hear negative comments on anything. I guess some people go for their lpn instead of their rn because it's quicker. There are jobs out there it maybe harder for one than another but lpn positions are available.

Oh yeah I forgot to mention to you that in ny there is no limit to how many times one can take the nclex

Take a deep breath and relax ( I know it sounds easier said than done ) but you have to. Give yourself a break, about 2 weeks or so. As far as a live review course look up ready to pass, they have an amazing nclex review course in ny and nj. Gd luck

I know it's been a while since this thread started but I have an interview with them next week. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Also how is the pay over there .?

Hello ladylpnfromthebronx being a NYS Medicaid provider do you have continuous cases or on and off ? Also how can I email the contact person ? I've been checking Craigslist daily but nothing so far

yes you are right nurses have all over have to prove themselves but what I was implying younger nurses not even over 25 yrs old bareky have respect in the nursing field. I would think at such a young age taking such a serious career one would think hey they must have a gd head on their shoulders. I assumed that allnurses.com was a place that nurses could come and discuss all sorts but guess I gave too much credit

I would love to know what you mean by that. there are posts still being commented on from early 2000's. so whats your point ? :)

Hello to all. I would like to know what are the obstacles,judgements,criticisms and other negatives ( and positives ) that young nurses go through at work compared to older ones

White glove is popular but their pay is not so gd. Last I heard they pay $ 17 for lpns dunno abt rns though

You are right but Agencies are the only ones willing to give lpns a chance. Anything else is by "luck"
