  1. What is a Nurses Calling?

    Lmomma replied to hopepedersen87's topic in General Nursing

    Another thing I really love about nursing is the diversity. There are so many areas and work environments that most people with intelligence and compassion can find their niche. I started out thinking...

  3. Outcast in school

    Lmomma replied to Newnurse65's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    OP, how long ago did you start classes? I am sorry you are dealing with this. I find too that my class is like high school, very immature catty grown women acting like fools and gossiping. I found my...

  4. What is a Nurses Calling?

    Lmomma replied to hopepedersen87's topic in General Nursing

    I don't believe this in the least. I am a nursing student. My reasons for becoming a nurse are practical: I can get my license in under a year (LPN), it is work I can do and jobs are plentiful. I...

  5. What does an LPN do in a physician's office?

    Lmomma replied to Lmomma's topic in Ambulatory Care, Clinic

    Thank you! I would hope I get to do more than vitals, I am getting quite a bit of education and training to waste it doing nothing but vitals

  7. Can a LPN make minimum payments of $50 if your 39,000 in debt?

    Lmomma replied to Nursing pursuit's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Is this 39,000 student loans from LPN school?? I'm gonna hope it's not, that sounds like an insane amount of money for LPN. You said it's student loans, but from LPN school or something

    Lmomma replied to OMMx3's topic in LPN, LVN Students

  9. Finally got into a LPN School

    Lmomma replied to ashsoontobeRN's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Red, Yes that is how I'm feeling, and I'm half way thru! Tests are no problem but remembering everything you need to as you enter a pt room is scary. It's tough but just breathe, and supplement your...

  10. Any Tips for New LVN Student?

    Lmomma replied to Alexander03's topic in LPN, LVN Students

  11. Finally got into a LPN School

    Lmomma replied to ashsoontobeRN's topic in LPN, LVN Students

  13. Will LPN's be around for long?

    Lmomma replied to OMMx3's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I read what you wrote and I am not alone in the "perception" that it was rude. "Most LPN are in LTC griping about how they are just as good as RNs". That's not rude? Ok. That's not trying to sound...

  14. Does Boces lpn program accept failures?

    Lmomma replied to Nursing pursuit's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    That's not very nice. Maybe she will be accepted and maybe not, maybe she plans on sticking to LPN. As outrageous as that sounds, some people do want to stop at the LPN

  18. Will LPN's be around for long?

    Lmomma replied to OMMx3's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    What was the nurse's role when they were with a student 1:1? I have worked education, nursing is a career change for me. I'd be interested in combining both disciplines, but don't know much about the...

  19. Will LPN's be around for long?

    Lmomma replied to OMMx3's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Do you work in long term care? I am looking at what options I will have when I graduate this June with my LPN license, and LTC seems to be the top of the list. Not sure if that's what I want to do...

    Hello everyone! I am an LPN student in a 10 month LPN program. I am 5 months in. My grades are fantastic, but I am very nervous on the floor during the clinical piece. I don't know why, but I am still...
