    School Closings

    They were not the two main LPN programs. Those schools were a scam and very few people hire from there. I am so very glad they were shut down as they needed to be. It has nothing to do with phasing...

    What's harder?

    Being a nurse is harder, coming from a new grad. I would love to answer some nursing school tests these days. Lol. Nursing school does not prepare you to be a nurse. It prepares you to take...
