  5. Excelsior Study Group in NYC

    Hey we live pretty far but I'd be willing to study via Skype ?
  6. Charting

    Caliotter3 is absolutely right you need to go to them and say hey, what is it that is wrong with my charting? You can't fix the problem if they don't point out exactly what is wrong.
  7. Charting

    Great advice I can give is using short worded sentences and getting to the point with using as little unneeded words as possible. Also try and chart only the important things. When I started my job as a nurse I had issues with charting and they told ...

  9. LPN TO RN the best online school

    Exactly! You must think positive, this is self paced too so you can prepare for however long you want and make sure you are 100% on skills, assessments and documentation. It will take dedication and drive but if you really want it anything is possibl...
  10. NCLEX PN in 10 days!!!

    The Actual book comes with a CD rom that has 200 question quizzes on it similar to the format on the Nclex. They're just practice questions though so if you have iPhone you could download nclex practice questions aps, which also helped me a lot.

    I used Pearson's exam cram study book for PN and passed my first attempt with it shutting off at 80 something questions, I read the entire exam cram book and memorized the exam cram sheet with all the lab values and drug therapeutic levels on it etc,...
  12. New lpn in assisted living.

    Confused on how to manage my time better, first day of work I was giving meds two hours late. How should I speed up the med administration process? Being new I don't know every persons name but I know the majority. When I give meds working 3-11 I hav...
  13. New lpn in assisted living.

    Hello !! I'd like to let everyone know it will be a year in 2 months that I've been working at the assisted living facility mentioned earlier in this thread, I have learned that you cannot pre-pop meds or even take two people there meds at a time bec...
  14. LPN TO RN the best online school

    I live in buffalo, so I would be testing in Syracuse. Any obscene law suites heard from that neck of the woods? I see a lot of people saying the CPNE is about perfection but they are allowing you to fail an adult and a peds PCA, they're also allowing...
  15. Nclex-PN pass strategies.

    Yep, definitely those help!
  16. Nclex-PN pass strategies.

    I am so excited that I received my licensure in the mail today. I want to start off by saying the pearson vue trick worked I tried re registering and it wouldn't allow me to, then a few days later got the pass status when I paid the 7$. I was nervous...

    NCLEX-PN MASTERY, nclex-pn exam prep, nclex Stanford review pn qbank those were the ones I used I purchased from the App Store.
  19. New lpn in assisted living.

    Hahaha! That's a wonderful idea to give them a choice for a bit earlier. My one resident watches mtv and when I go into her room she is sound asleep with rap blasting it is the funniest thing in the entire world.
  20. New lpn in assisted living.

    The CNAs always wheel them to me it is great how much help they give me.
  21. New lpn in assisted living.

    Thanks !! Yes I realized that I can't give meds in the actual dinning room but I make sure to catch them on there way down since they pass the nurses station it gets nerve wrecking though to have like 4 at the desk wanting to get to dinner quickly I ...

  23. New lpn in assisted living.

    We use the pop charts, never seen the baggies wouldn't sound like a bad idea though! I have only been working one unit and it's easier I know there names now, I guess the state will be coming in soon so the labeling 2 cups at a time thing is out the ...
  24. New lpn in assisted living.

    Yep they already made brain sheets. I have 28 residents to one lpn ratio. Also I now know to save my paperwork for after med pass. When you give meds do you go out one at a time to give them to residents or do you group them in threes and label the m...
  25. The 12 mcg Fentanyl patch(vent)

    I'm a new lpn and have only worked with patches in the school clinical setting, we were taught to pre open the package to date and initial the patches, before entering the pt room. I can imagine the patches you were talking about were way too tiny to...
