I am seriously lacking on references. I haven't worked since 2002, and I haven't worked as a nurse yet. I haven't been able to track down anyone from my previous jobs to use as references. I was thinking of emailing 2 of my nursing school instructor...

I am working on my pre-entry courses to get into an RN program. I trying to decide wether to try an online class VS two evenings a week (6p - 8:55p). English 1 is what I will be taking, summer semester, 8 weeks. The instructor required a phone chat ...

Ad would read something like...."Stay at home mom/LPN has openings for childcare in my home......." Anyone know if there are any legalities to that?

I mailed out my resume in response to an ad on Friday. Today I was looking at it and all of the sudden an error popped right out at me! I didn't notice it before and by golly I had been over and over that thing. I even had my husband and a friend of...

I have been home since LPN graduation, so for almost 2 years now. (was pregnant at graduation) Since I have had a 3rd child (other 2 are older) I guess things have changed for me. I had been thinking of doing pre-entry toward the RN program. I even s...

Nice to meet you Jaimee! Congrats on graduation! My husband lived in CA for several years. He has said a time or 2 that he wasn't in the right tax bracket to make it in CA long term. I am glad he moved back or I never would have met him! Wages ...

Hi all. I am new to the site. I am trying to figure out what I am doing. :) I was pregnant with my 3rd child at graduation, so I got my license but never went to work. Here I am, almost 2 years post graduation and have never worked as an LPN. My ori...

My employment for all places would be verifiable through the company HR, companies are still intact, and I am sure based on file info they would all list me for re-hire. I was mostly trying to track down previous immediate supervisors. One thing I ...

I am starting to think about getting prepared for interviews. I think preparing for an interview is a lot like preparing for the NCLEX.....go over as many potential questions as possible! :rotfl: When I did the LPN, one of the required classes was ...

I will have to watch out for the clock thing! :chuckle I just called the instructor and told her I want in the online class. I figure absolute worst case scenario, I could always drop and take it later F2F. I am not planning to do the RN until fall...

Thank you very much! Yes, it did help. :) I think I am just going to go for it and give it a shot. Thanks! Love, Jenn

I have a blue crab on my left inner ankle...I'm a Cancer, fav color blue. When I was in LPN school, I was going to get a flaming heart with a stethescope entwined around it. I had a baby instead (LOL) and decided to hold off. I may still go for it...

Hello and welcome! Personally, I am an LPN (tho haven't worked as one, had a baby and stayed home ) and I have recently decided to go back to my original goal to become an RN. It has taken me some time to decide this is what I want to do. When I sit...

I agree with what everyone has said so far. My opinion is...go for it! Love, Jenn

I am praying the answer is yes! Background....I was pregnant at LPN graduation, so I have been an LPN for 2 years but haven't worked as one yet. I am going to go back to school to become an RN, and am thinking about working as an LPN part-time to gai...

Hi! I can relate! Here are some things I used that worked for me. I used index cards to write down small things I needed to memorize, like dosage equations, conversions, ect. For bones and things of that sort to memorize, I found a website and pri...

You have all given me a lot to think about. :)
