  3. Those of you in school or have finished

    LeeLeeTheGPN replied to ejm123's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Yeah that's the reality of it. Most people do not go through LPN programs as a their main career option anymore. Most of us want to be RNs and advanced practice nurses. But that's the thing, most...

  4. Is it possible to get licensed as a CMA while in LPN school?

    LeeLeeTheGPN replied to Nathifalr26's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Medical Assisting is different from nursing. There is no portion of your LPN training that would allow you to be eligible to register your MA...you can only test for your CNA, which would be the...

  5. Accredited LPN Program?

    LeeLeeTheGPN replied to I♥Scrubs's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Most credits from PN schools will not transfer. I checked that for MANY programs. What is important is if it is licensed by the state's BON so that you can sit for you NCLEX. Most facililties don't...

  6. Those of you in school or have finished

    LeeLeeTheGPN replied to ejm123's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    The biggest asset I have while being in this program is my independence. I don't have any children, bills, or other obligations so my studies get the bulk of my attention while still having time for...

    LeeLeeTheGPN replied to ejm123's topic in LPN, LVN Students

  12. Does it sound like I can get my job back?

    LeeLeeTheGPN replied to hfullerCNA's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Most facilities educate THOROUGHLY on HIPAA and its policies. They also cover SOCIAL MEDIA and its role in the work place and heavily discourage the use of social media in regards to anything having...

  13. CNA to LVN in work environment

    LeeLeeTheGPN replied to jla1972's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    There is always going to be a little resentment, but that's not for you to worry about. Your coworkers complacency is not your fault. If anything, you should be motivation for them to want more for...

    LeeLeeTheGPN replied to Vicky Laursen's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    LPN's starting salary in the facility I work in is $23/hr, for new grads and we hire from within :) Meaning when I pass my NCLEX, I have a good job waiting for

  15. Newly License LVN, NO EXP!! NO WORK :(

    LeeLeeTheGPN replied to juh_lee_suh's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Actually, being that you are an LPN and have taken a fundamentals of nursing course, you are qualified to work as a CNA. However, some facilities will probably not place you into that position because...

  16. LPN-ADN-BSN-MSN will it ever end?

    LeeLeeTheGPN replied to libran1984's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Keep on pushing! Don't let anything or anyone deter you from getting closer to your dreams! And please, please, for the love of God or whomever you believe in, do not, become complacent! If one day in...

  17. CNA TO LPN

    LeeLeeTheGPN replied to kitakisses's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I agree with what everyone else has said. I am also a Nursing Assistant currently in an LPN program. Skip the MA program, it would be, for lack of a better phrase, a huge waste of your time. Most MA...
