  1. Is it possible to do Excelsior with Limited Hospital Experience?

    Lovely_RN posted a topic in Online Distance Learning

    I am graduating from an LPN program in approximately 6 weeks. Unfortunately I will not be able to continue going to a traditional NS for my RN because of my finances and family situation. After a year...

  2. Ever had a older nurse treat you as a lowly new grad?

    Lovely_RN replied to <3Nursing07's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I don't think that you should suck it up and take it. This woman is a typical bully and she is testing you and all the other newbies to see who is going to play the sucker for her. I've meet these...

    I don't call that cheap, I call that

  4. Ever had a older nurse treat you as a lowly new grad?

    Lovely_RN replied to <3Nursing07's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Do you really need to confront her to prove your point? I would just say no or walk away whenever she asked me to do something that was inappropriate. What can she do if you say no? Nothing that's...

  6. Should A Future LPN Become Certified In Nursing Assistance?

    Lovely_RN replied to itsmyturn's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    If you don't plan on working as a CNA while you are in NS then don't waste your time. I went into NS thinking that my previous experience as a CNA would be really helpful and it was for about the...

  7. Does anyone regret becoming an LPN?

    Lovely_RN replied to wefdm21's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I have 6 weeks to go but so far I have no regrets. I am one of those people who spent a ton of money to get a useless degree and I am happy that I will be able to find a good job while I pursue my RN....

  9. Is it possible to do Excelsior with Limited Hospital Experience?

    Lovely_RN replied to Lovely_RN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Thanks! I had to do a little searching but I found the link to the CPNE workshops. If I had years of experience under my belt I wouldn't worry about it but since I will likely have only 1 year or less...

  10. Do you get extra work cause your bilingual?

    Lovely_RN replied to CyndieRN2007's topic in General Nursing

    Exactly! Where I live there are tons of immigrants from every corner of the globe. Most of them are from Latin America but there are also many immigrants from Asia and Africa and other places. Good...

  11. Job and school, need advice....

    Lovely_RN replied to dbledutchs's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    If I understand your post correctly you're worried about the nurse manager being mad at you for quitting. I'm going to be blunt so excuse me in advance.... You need to do what is best for you and...

  12. Need Help. Need An Opportunity!!!

    Lovely_RN replied to king0fhearts's topic in New York Nursing

    I don't know if that number is true but you have to remember that all nursing schools are competitive to some degree. It's just that the CUNY schools are more competitive than private schools because...

  13. Need Help. Need An Opportunity!!!

    Lovely_RN replied to king0fhearts's topic in New York Nursing

    Yes that is the one, good luck!

  14. Need Help. Need An Opportunity!!!

    Lovely_RN replied to king0fhearts's topic in New York Nursing

    With a 2.4GPA your very best bet would be to bite the bullet and go to a private 2year program. I'm not trying to be mean but the chances of you ever getting a clinical spot in a CUNY program with...

  15. Graduated from a vocational school?

    Lovely_RN replied to momma2twnz's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I am going through this identical experience! Lucky for me I have had good grades from the start of the program but some of my classmates aren't as lucky. It's the third (and last) semester and about...

  16. drug test results

    Lovely_RN replied to EDnurse2009's topic in General Students

    It sucks that you have to go through this and that your instructor isn't being helpful. Truthfully, she probably thinks that you are a pot head or something and is just waiting for the results of your...

    Lovely_RN replied to MzMiNiDiva8's topic in General Nursing

    The best way to find out is to check with the BON in your state. Different states vary some will allow an RN student to take the NCLEX-PN after three semesters and others only allow PN graduates to...

  20. Drug Screening

    Lovely_RN replied to Inquisitive one's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    What???? Your post is confusing. You used quotation marks like you are quoting what I wrote but I never wrote: "or the state"?Do you think they use at work? That is one matter...or do you just"think...

  21. Drug Screening

    Lovely_RN replied to Inquisitive one's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    What is motivating you to want to start a rumor about drug screening? Do you suspect that certain staff members are using? If so then why not report them to management or the state? If you don't...
