I love being a nurse. I worked so hard to get my Lpn and I'm working on my RN. It is who I am and I'm so passionate about it.

Thank you for much. I always say thank you every shift. I think because I'm a new nurse and new to LTC that could be the problem. But I thank them for helping me and I bought them pizza. I bring in cookies. I know there job is difficult. I help out all the time. But when they unplug my Pt alarms and they fall that's not spiting me. That's harmful to the residents.

I always buy them coffee and bring in food I cooked. Because nobody's got time to eat

I definitely do not have that attitude. I help them. I don't my aides. I referred to them by their name and I thank them every shift and tell him I cannot do my job without them.

So the family can do this

I know what I am. A proud Lpn and yes I'm nurse and I don't care if it's not recognize. I like don't have time or energy to explain it. Nurses are all under appreciated on some level. Don't take it personally. Be more secure

I my a new LPN working in long-term care. My aides are not respectful to me. They give me an attitude problem all the time they only help the nurses that they like in that have been there for years. I'm sure this is normal in every way through it but is anyone have any advice on how to handle it I tried being nice and helping and it didn't work. They actually hate me more now. I started out as a medical assistant 15 years I have expirenced being Unlicensed medical professional. Why are they like this ? Help

I completely understand what your saying. And obviously you figured out a ready that nurses don't play nice with others We got a pretty good example of that from the replies. Be the kind of nurse you want to work with that's what I have told from true compassion caring nurses. Inbox me if you need to talk good luck

I had a new admission on Thanksgiving The patient was a little aggressive and upset because he's hard of hearing and having anxiety about being in a new facility The doctor ordered an Ativan PRN Q8 hours for anxiety I wrote up and fax the order to the pharmacy I also filled out the behavior sheets I got reprimanded by my supervisor for not calling the family about the meds. He is alert oriented and able to make his needs known He does not have a healthcare proxy or durable power of attorney I was told I must always call the emergency contact in the chart and let them know about things like this The family rather for him to be on Ambien instead of Ativan The patient wants Ativan it is really normal procedure in Pennsylvania I have a New Jersey nursing license and recently transferred it to Pennsylvania so I'm confused They also requested that he wears a diaper and he is fully continent it and does not need one

Lpn pass meds and do treatments. Lpn can add to the care plan. Initial assessment and care plan is by RN

I honest can say that my expirence with Ramp was the complete opposite.

Lpn should be valued.

I worked in dermatology as a medical assistant and I loved it. It involved hair nails and skin. A lot of biopsies and patient teaching about skin care.. I also assisted with cosmetic procedures.

Congrats !!! Such an accomplishment Sent from my iPhone using allnurses.com

its written by the National Counsel State Board of Nursing Its free on line the Nclex test plan the review is inexpensive and you can get a 3 or 6 week of assess to it online. I loved it because NCSBN write the nclex. So I was very confident in the information it provided and the practice questions were difficult. Here's the website Good luck https://www.ncsbn.org/public.htm

I really recommend reading the nclex test plan and the NCSBN review. Sent from my iPhone using allnurses.com

If I listen to all the people who told me don't do the lpn program, I would not be a nurse now. I get so upset when I see people discourage others in following there dreams. I am not Only or Just an Lpn I'm licsence practical nurse who earned it and I'm so proud of myself. Sent from my iPhone using allnurses.com
