  5. Neglect...LPN was fired, RN was not

    Good point fergus51, and it was bought up. I think it was Tweety, and I agreed with him, that maybe the RN shouldn't have been fired...but a verbal/written waring was definitely not enough for such a...

  13. Neglect...LPN was fired, RN was not

    You know I read that post differently, because there was no mention of a CNA in the mix, when the RN and LPN split "their" team. If there was....there was no mention of one in either of the posts by...

    Sorry about your headache Tweety...but I agree with
  17. Failed NCLEX multiple times

    Shoot I know people who have passed the first time, that I wouldn't want taking care of me or anyone else I care or don't care about! A good test taker, doesn't mean their a good nurse. There was a...
  18. Neglect...LPN was fired, RN was not

    You're exactly correct, as to the purpose of this thread...was should the RN have been fired. And I can't blame...nor do I, your not wanting to take heat for someone who should be competent enough...

  20. Neglect...LPN was fired, RN was not

    I don't believe you have read anywhere...that an LPN isn't responsible for their own competent, and the care he/she provides! LPNs didn't make the rules, nor are they the ones going around repeatedly...
