    Help!! Super nervous about bridge to RN BSN!!!

    I didn't find it hard. I just finished my LPN-BSN program. It was challenging, but you already have the foundation to build on. You will be

    New Information for ATI Comprehensive Predictor 2010

    They added more content questions such as disaster preparedness and SATA, who would you see first, etc. The board of nursing has the breakdown of the % of questions. I took the 2013 ATI and got a 72%....

    My Personal NCLEX Tips

    I am doing my ATI reviews, too, although I don't have my NCLEX scheduled yet. Did you do VATI? (virtual ATI, with a coach)? According to my comp review scores she says about 3 weeks of study should...

    So tired..why are they all the same.

    I totally understand! Find something new....that may be hard to do right now, but HHC companies are hiring like crazy. And with your LTC experience, you'll be perfect. The pay is less, but the...

    Additional certifications

    My preceptor (who is also the CNS for the OB/MB floor) told me it wouldn't hurt to get as many certifications as you can. That way, if you need them for the job you are applying for, you have an edge...
  15. The term "nurse" is also legally protected. People can face serious charges by saying they are a nurse when they aren't. Technically, we are ALL doctors, because the term "doctor" in Latin means...
  16. Exactly!!And why is there not as much uproar when you go to the clinic to see your physician and the MA's are "nurses"? So they don't confuse anyone? I know for a fact, my physician's office has NO...

    Newer grad dilemma

    I don't think the float pool is a good spot for a new grad!! Do you have any previous nursing experience? I realize you graduated in 2010 but already to have a suspended license....are you sure there...

    stafford loan

    I have a Stafford loan. The 12,500 is per year, not the whole program. I would stick with the federal loan rather than a private loan, since the interest rate for private loan depends on whatever the...
  22. Depending where you are in northern CA, University of Phoenix in Sacramento has an LVN-BSN
  23. Yikes! There is no way I would do that!! And you can't do an online program without being an LPN or RN already. Go to a CC and get your RN, then go to an online school and get your BSN. 85K is so not...
  24. I am an LPN right now and I considered DSN for my RN, HOWEVER....If you are an LPN wanting an RN, they are very VERY expensive. If you are not an LPN, just getting your RN through them will cost even...

    New grad lvn. I think I am in the wrong field.

    Seriously, don't stress over this! You will learn the documentation, it takes time to get through all those orders. And, as for calling the docs.....that is their job. Yours, too. And, you will hear...
