I most certainly appreciate the tips for new nurse educators. I hope that I will be provided with some teaching aids and some sort of outline of what is expected of the students. I'm a little nervous about the starting from scratch. I loved my Maternity Text. I wish I could use that..........I guess I have no idea what I'm getting into. Debbie

i agree with the fact that real life experience in a specific area is vital when teaching. that is what i'm hoping to do with my first experience as an instructor. debbie :)

Maybe the written standards of practice for the LPN program is different; however, I started out a CNA, then went back for my LPN. Five years later I went back for my RN and had the same instructors and felt as though I was receiving the same quality education on every level. :balloons: Debbie

I have been working in OB for 25 years. I am from Florida and they are so desparate for Nursing Instructors that they have hired me to teach OB to LPN students. They did require that I currently enroll in a BSN program which I did. I don't think I would be cheating the students out of an outstanding experience, because OB is the love of my life.
