Thanks for the input, but you completely took MY question out of contex! My question was posted as a new nurse in order to get advice from a seasoned "LPN" that has been through this situation a time or two before. You should not tell me what I am or am not "going about the right way, because YOU do not know what I am or am not doing! But all opinions are welcomed because this is a public site, so again I'll say thanks for the effort!

Thanks

As a new Lpn in Ltc how do I establish that level of respect between myself and the cna's. I'm 26, and I'm a newbie at the facility a lot of the cna's are in their 40's and 50's and have been there longer than me. How do I make my position known? Even as a trainee while I'm shadowing, nurse's are sending me on tasks like refilling their water pitchers, and restocking the carts.

I live in Miami, Florida. I took my Nclex Pn in Augist and passed, but I haven't been able to find a job! No one wants to hire you unless you have experience! Where can I go as a new grad? If anyone is in Miami, and can give me some tips it is greatly appreciated! All of my applications are being denied due to lack of experience! Broward county is not an issue for me to travel to, if you guys know of any places in that area as well! Thanks in advance!
