Hi, I recently discovered that I as an LPN could in fact work in this aspect of nursing and have since became very interested. My question is this, where can I go online to get the training/certification for MDS work? I have googled it and I have o...

A tough time finding LPN positions in Wisconsin (Milwaukee area). I am having such a hard time finding any available ones, the only ones that I am finding are way out by Madison - making me think I may either have to drive like 2 hours each way each...

Alright. I need help help help and more help! I'm in my 3rd semester of RN and in Medical/Surgical theory class and I'm failing. I already know that I have to re-take the class over again next semester but was wondering if anyone out there knew of...

Alright, so here's the question/deal. Yesterday I decided to take it upon myself to email my agency (recuriter) and asked her if she knew if they were hiring within the company as a recuriter as I am really in need of a stable permanent full time jo...

Thanks, and I asked her and she told me everything - i pick up my name tag and time cards tomorrow - I make 24/per hour during the week, and 25/per hour on weekends. I also have a interview on Tuesday for a full time position m-f - so if i get that ...

LOL, I love that. Well I finished up all my stuff that needed to get done for the agency, tomorrow I go get my tb test read and have them fax her the results. Actually they already called me this morning for a day shift - but I didn't hear the phon...

I just got back from my interview. And yes it a lot of paperwork and I have to take some online skills tests and go for a TB and drug test. She said that they are pretty desperate for LPN's right now and said that if I get everything in order by th...

So I was supposed to have my interview with this agency last friday, but I had a flat tire when I was gonna leave, called them and now I have the interview today at 1pm - I'm nervous though because I really need a job and to start working. I have be...

Wow - Okay I just found this thread and hoping that someone is still checking. I was looking at all the links on the first page about all the different certifications that an LPN can get. I'm interested in L&D, but don't have enough money or ti...

I'm in Wisconsin and have been reading all the threads I can about agency nursing. I'm having problems finding staff nursing positions where I am for LPN's for whatever reason and currently am out of a job, and in need of having a job soon. I had m...

Okay - so I think I've found my knack! I hope that I'm have at least. I have decided, with much debate, to start looking into temp agencies for full time work working pool LPN....I have an interview with Top Tech Temporaries Inc. on Friday morning....

Okay, so now I have yet another question in mind. Even though through EC you have to take the big ole' CPNE test is that easier to get into rather than having to go through something like ISU's course. I am unsure if I have this right in my mind, b...

Ahhh, I see. So I suppose not sooooo terrible. I'm gonna think about it some more, discuss this with my family, and go from there. I need to find out though where it says I'm a nursing student. I'm an LPN and have been one for one year now...prob...

So honestly EC is actually the better buy if your speaking solely in money value. I also looked at their website and it's so much more straight forward than other sites I've looked at. I don't care if I get my BSN right at this moment, I just wanna...

Alrighty. I actually need an answer here. I've been reading and reading and reading posts on here concerning TCN/ISU LPN to BSN program and I'm just super confused. I have been planning on going through with signing up for sure with TCN/ISU for th...

out there for LPN's to get into? Or are they only for RN's? Annie2005

Okay. So I'm happy to find this thread. So things in my life suck right now. I thought that I didn't want to do nursing, but now I see I need to be in nursing. I am not doing good at a college and I think the whole reason I'm not doing good is be...

What I can do anymore. I'm retaking Med/Surg class again (3rd time) and I feel like I'm gonna blow it again. I really want this, and can't believe that I can't pass this one freaking class. I think I can still do it though....we have had only 2 te...

But the college network called me and I decided I would answer the phone. I did and listened and answered some questions, but then I found myself making an appointment for next week Friday at 9am to have an advisor come over to go over the program w...

I'm excited. I've actually been considering going through an online college to finish up my nursing (getting my RN), because MATC and I have not been great. I failed my Med/Surg class in the RN program (2nd time taking it), and submitted all the fo...

HORRAY!!! They decided to meet early and the granted my request to come back to the RN program and re-take just that one class! I'm so excited! And because they were so early with their decision I am able to register (did that today) and take it s...

Just found out in the beginning of this week that I was accepted back into the nursing program at MATC (in Milwaukee, Wisconsin).....dropped out because of stuff going on. So this spring (just registered today) I'll be taking Health Alterations 1 an...

Okay, I need some advice. I an LPN (will be finishing up school soon to get RN), and have been working at an Assisted Living facitlity for about 1 year. I hate this job. At first it was a good job because I was just starting out, however nothing h...

I've read through almost every single posts on here concerning the college network and ISU. I wanted to do the LPN to BSN program that the college network/ISU offers. I've seen the outline of what I need to take, and it says nothing about a CPNE, r...

Just so people are aware on here, I have since decided to stick it out at work. I have printed out applications and my resume to send tonight and tomorrow to some prospects for a new job. I honestly did not realize that as an LPN we can pass out nar...
