  10. Lpn to bsn advice please!

    I am doing the LPN-BSN program at UoPx and so far I like it. Many of my instructors are graduates of their program. College Network is not a college. There are tons of grants and scholarships out...
  11. I agree to an extent. However, the cost of UoP here in CO and the cost of the public 4 year universities here turn out to be about the same. Waiting on the 4 year universities and getting in to a...

    LOL I would love to be a state surveyor. I bet their job is even more comical than
  13. Fired!

    Of course. But I also know the company didn't follow their own policy leading "up to" termination. I asked for an explanation and the admin said the DON was on vacation (again,) and it was her...
  14. Fired!

    I have filed a complaint with EEOC and OSHA. OSHA here in my state has a whistle blower division and they are investigating now, but I haven't received any followup yet. I read on a website last...
  15. Fired!

    Thanks. I needed more clarification on your previous reply. Of course they want to avoid a wrongful termination lawsuit. I was one word short of asked to come back, so yeah, makes sense. I am...
  16. Fired!

    I called HR and she said she didn't even know why, just that I was. She said she can only say hire date, term date and years of service. I like your "philosophy regarding patient care."
  17. Staff Satisfaction / Turnover

    To quote a previous poster: "If you identify a problem, you ARE the problem." Really? How
  18. Do you ever get tired of hearing this phrase?

    I get tired of hearing "If you don't do this....this....this.....it's your license, you are the nurse responsible." So, the CNA isn't responsible? Everything is the nurse's fault?
  19. Is Med-Surg really a dead end?

    A dead end? No. LTC is the dead end. Once you're stuck there it's hard to get out

  21. Applying for the same nursing position twice

    I applied to the same job twice, and sometimes more. Really ticks me off when they interview me and never call back when I inquire about the job, but it's still listed as an open position! I'd rather...
  22. Starting Med-Surg in 2 weeks

    I just finished my rotation a couple of months ago. If your clinical instructor wants paperwork, do it. It helps serve as a study guide also. Good Luck! It seems like a lot now, but you will breeze...
  23. University of Pheonix BSN and beyond

    I am doing their LPN-BSN and so far, I like it. My instructors are great. Check your SBON for NCLEX pass rates, etc. It is expensive, but nursing schools are so saturated right now with people...
  24. Online LPN-RN Programs?

    You need clinical experience no matter what you do. No LPN or RN program is 100% online, except an RN-BSN or RN-MSN, and even then they may require some clinical time. If you are trying to get an RN,...
