    what do I do? failed hesi have to settle for lpn!!

    pagandeva2000 replied to ziggles's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I agree with Preeps...I don't think that the OP or anyone else in a similar situation is disrespecting the title of LPN. The BSN and LPN programs are like apples and oranges in the sense that the LPN...

    Need some advice, looking into LPN/LVN?

    pagandeva2000 replied to azombieee's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    This not abnormal. It didn't happen in my school, however. In my area, the private schools do more interviewing. However, as TheCommuter stated, it is part of the weeding out process, and I say it...

    Pharm: PLEASE HELP

    pagandeva2000 replied to kl1730's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Another NCLEX review book that has an EXCELLENT pharmacology review is Delmar's Comprehensive Review of NCLEX-PN. What I liked about their review of medications was that they organized it in...

    what do I do? failed hesi have to settle for lpn!!

    pagandeva2000 replied to ziggles's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I think that your school has to still release papers to the Board of Nursing that you successfully completed their program to even sit for NCLEX-PN, so, I believe you have to ask your school whether...

    got the new nurse nerves!!!

    pagandeva2000 replied to LINJOH8571's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    What titles were these people who were speaking negatively against LPNs? You'll find that there is always some sort of polarization between titles and each one feels that they are being more...

    BSN educated to take the LPN test

    pagandeva2000 replied to LIU's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I find that the LPN role expands and collapes based on convienence. For example, an agency I work for as a vaccine nurse has decided to decrease the pay of the RNs because of the budget crisis and...

    BSN educated to take the LPN test

    pagandeva2000 replied to LIU's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    From the wording of this post, I think we need to provide a quick, but necessary inservice. The letters in LPN mean Licensed Practical NURSE, which means that we had to successfully complete a...

    The difference between LPN and CNA?

    pagandeva2000 replied to Tricia76's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Yes, a nurse on any level is taught basic care which includes bathing, oral care, toileting, etc... Also, there are places that do not employ CNAs at all...who else would be doing these tasks then,...

    Working LTC vs. clinic?

    pagandeva2000 replied to kimmyj74's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I have been working in clinics at my hospital from the moment I obtained my license and I would not trade it for the world. In order to keep my nursing skills sort of fresh, I did work at my...

    Is it true LPN's are being phased out?

    pagandeva2000 replied to mew718's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I have also seen an ebb and flow regarding the use of LPNs in hospitals. Mine in particular. I have seen them lay off LPNs in lieu of obtaining more RNs, then, seeing that they can have less RNs but...

    Is it true LPN's are being phased out?

    pagandeva2000 replied to mew718's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I think the reason why both LPN and RNs are having difficulty obtaining a position (especially as new grads) are because of this economy, there must be even less resources to properly orient a person...

    ATI EXIT EXAM

    pagandeva2000 replied to gjsotero's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    It has been mentioned several times that sharing ATI codes is a violation of copyright law. It is also a violation to post how to access them. The previous post was deleted and thread is

    Can I challenge LPN NCLEX test?

    pagandeva2000 replied to pao8359's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Actually, from what I have read regarding Excelsior, you have to already be an LPN or paramedic in order to be accepted into their program. It seems that their frame of thought is that you need the...

    pagandeva2000 replied to pyxeduhst5282's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not sure about web sites, but I think that the best thing is to just teach what you know and seek answers when you don't. I, also am in a unique situation. For one, the RNs are really responsible...

    Are you the only one they said this to, or is it everyone? Not sure that they have the right, but it sounds to me that the school is covering their butts because if it got back to them that the exam...

    pagandeva2000 replied to vjw59's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Maybe your daughter can request a meeting with the program director to explain her side of the story and state that another classmate was a witness to what really happened. I think that the clinical...
