  1. Central School of Practical Nursing

    I am currently a student!
  2. Fall 2013 LPN program start

    Where is everyone? We are finished with our finals!!! Next week is our last week of class, then a short summer break. Our program started with 40 people, and as of Thursday, only 16 were moving on to level two. We have finished nursing fundamentals,...
  3. fundamentals ati practice??

    Every school is different with grading. For us a level 1 score is between a 48.3%-63.2%, level 2 is a 63.3%-81.6%, level 3 is 81.7%-100%. In our whole class 25% scored below a level 1, 25% scored level 1 and 50% scored level 2. Not one person scored ...
  4. Ten things I would tell a new LPN/LVN student!

    What is a good care plan book?
  5. What skills have you been signed off on?

    I feel behind, we haven't done any of that yet and we are in our 5th month of school. We have however finished A&P, that is a relief. I am looking forward to the hands on part!
  6. Fall 2013 LPN program start

    Happy Winter Break!!!! We just finished A&P, and I am so happy that is over! When we go back in Jan, we will be starting Nursing Fundamentals and pharmacology/math. We ended up losing 3 in my class before our break, but I have a feeling we will l...
  7. How much was your lpn program?

    Mine is just under $10,000 all inclusive.
  8. Fall 2013 LPN program start

    Update time!!!!!
  9. CNA to LVN

    Go back to school, it's not too late.
  10. Finish LPN or go straight to BSN?

    I would finish the LPN, for one it will show them you can finish what you start.
  11. Right now my gear is just loose in my backpack, the last thing I want to do is jack it up. Have you found a safer, better way to carry it? Do they make bags just for BP cuff, stethoscope, pen light, ect?
  12. Going to a non-accredited technical school for LPN. good or bad?

    If the BON does not approve a school, the people that go to the non-approved school can not sit for their boards. All of the time at that school is for nothing.
  13. How much was your LPN/LVN school?

    Just under $10,000. It includes all books and uniforms. SO far I am enjoying it!
  14. Lpn salary

    I have been told $12.50 an hour here in the Virginia Beach area of Virginia.
  15. If you had the option...

    I would take the trip
  16. Is it too late to become a nurse?

    It's not too late. Most of the people in my class are in their 30's, the majority of us got married had kids and now that the youngest is in school, we are going back. (I am the oldest at 37)
  17. Why won't people stop nagging me about being an LPN and not an RN?

    Gotta love people. I was informed the other day that I am wasting my time because LPN's are NOT real nurses.
  18. Fall 2013 LPN program start

    How is it going ladies????? I am moving into my 3rd week, we are doing A&P first, I think to weed people out, which is working. I can't believe how many have already left and how many are failing so far. Shucks, we have one that is failing just b...
  19. PCT/Student RN, should I do it?

    I would do it!
  20. I have questions about the nursing program at Norfolk State University

    I wouldn't gamble my education at NSU. They didn't just get rid on the ASN program, they were stripped from it by the BON. NSU in crisis, on deadline | HamptonRoads.com | PilotOnline.com
  21. How Many people did your program start out with?

    The class before mine started with 35 and only 9 finished, but all 9 passed the NCLEX. My class has already had one drop, and we are only on day 4. I think our program is exceptionally demanding because of the number of LPN programs in the area and l...
  22. Who else starts classes on Tuesday 9-3

    What did you start off learning? We are doing A&P first.
  23. Clinical uniforms?

    Ours are issued to us, they look like housekeeping uniforms at a cheap hotel
  24. Looking for a easy to roll, and carry upstairs backpack for school. Any recommendations?
  25. Completed my 1st week of LPN school

    I did too! One week down... God only know how many to go . LOL
