I need help with something. I received a write up and one of the things it mentioned was that I need to administer a medication between one hour before the scheduled time on the mar and up to one hour...

I finally got to talk to the Director and she let me know that they are making changes to address the one hour before and after. She understands that no one has ever met that goal and no one will....

Oh, I am sure that the director will back up my boss. It's just I wanted to point that I expect management to help me see what it is that I need to do to meet the guidelines that they have in place...

Oh, how do I know my predecessor wasn't written up for this? Well, lets play with that idea. He worked back there a year and a half. He was always done by 10am. Now, where I work, if you get a...

I don't think you understand my point. I'm not saying they owe me any details on anyone's performance. I'm just saying that if the claim is that you have to have 45 residents done by 9am and that...

Oh, and by the way, when I asked my boss about the best nurse finishing at 10am she told me that it was probably because he wasn't doing everything he was suppose to. Interesting confession....
Manofstone replied to Manofstone's topic in Geriatric, LTC
No, my boss works for the director. My point is that if this is a valid reason for a write up then why is it allowed? It must be allowed if no one can finish by 9am and the best nurse back there was...
I thought that it meant that if I give the medication on Monday then Tuesday would be day one and Wednesday would be day two and so I would give it on day two. I'm being told by someone who is not a...
Thanks for the comments guys! I forgot to come back and do an update, but I was able to reach the provider and I was right. If I give it on Monday then the next day to administer the med would be on...
I just graduated from a LVN program in Texas and I'm wondering where would be the best places to look for work? Long Term Care/Nursing Homes is a given...any other places? Thanks in advance for your...
Hello all, I finished the LVN program just last week here in Texas. I'm looking for work and I've noticed that some applications ask for a GVN License Number. I've gone to the Texas BON...
Itzvalerie, thanks! :) At least now I know. I have seen some GVN's post that they were able to find work without the license number, so maybe I'll be able to do the
Itzvalerie, thanks for the quick response. I did do that for the LVN/RN and also for the GVN and it reports back with "Total Finds = 0". So I'm not sure what I need to do next. I did finish the LVN...
Hi, How many hours a week is RN school? I'm thinking of working as a LVN as I go to RN school and I'm curious how many hours will I have available for school.

I'm not aware of a waiting list. Maybe I was lucky? From what I've from the other students, st philips offers more than other schools in the area for lvn. I haven't heard of the baptist lvn program...
My mom graduated from st philips and many grads work in san antonio. Its really the best school at this price for nusing. One of my friends went to galen and she paid $6 k a semester. She says she...
