I know alot of people are weary about becoming an LPN these days. They are getting phased out, not getting paid well, or whatever else crap you can come up with. I too didn't want to an LPN program, I thought It wasn't worth it. Boy was I wrong. I a...
I graduated in May with my lpn, passed NCLEX and got a job as a pediatric homehealth LPN. I got no training, didn't follow any nurses/shadow, took a 40? med math test and got a binder about various health conditions, working vents, suction and charti...
Two semesters at 11 credits per semester. 82$ a credit totaled 1804. Then I avoided the book "bundle for $500 the school was selling and bought my books online used for $125. The best part is in my new LPN job I will get every dime back within two pa...
Just practice NCLEX questions, write out the ones you got wrong, write out the rationale. Theres a 30 page study guide that is floating around this site idk the link anymore, but i printed a few copies of that and kept them in my car, purse, desk at ...
If you want it bad enough, its doable. I worked two fulltime jobs and was enrolled in a fast track LPN program, while being a single mom of a little boy. It was difficult, but deff a small sacrafice for a life long of success. I studied at night, or ...

I am a new grad and will be starting a new job soon as a pediatric home health lpn with a rate of 22.50 an hour. I too am working towards my RN and did a bridge program so I got my LPN in 9 months and can go into third block and finish to fourth ri...
If you all go to my page here on all nurses , my "website" is linked to my blog about my entire lpn program at gateway. I have recommendations for books and such. Just buy any nclex study books to go over questions and start there. Nclex questions is...

Yes like you said your education is a complete waste if you don't keep trying. You have got to give it your all, take a live review course, work , do something to be able to pass. You've made it this far, you can't stop now. Stay postive, print off a...
I graduated this year in May. I have a blog I've used to track my entire LPN journey if anyone wants the link Ill send it to you. PM me on here. I reccomend it, and its worth the fight. I will hopefully be going into my RN in the fall.
I love Phoenix Children's Hospital. The pay is decent, the ED is expanding ,benefits are great ( especially if you have children), and they offer up to 5500 in tuition reimbursement super easy qualifications.
I just completed my second/last semester of the lpn. I wrote a blog regarding my entire experience and can email you the link to it. I really loved my block two clinicals. We did med/surg/peds. The hospital we went to, we floated around the entire th...
That does seem to be the norm all over the place. I do believe that is a good thing as it weeds out people who would ultimately fail anyways. Nursing school is hard, but you have to cut it..to make it in the real world. Work very hard to get the pass...
