I was very critical of one of my hospital stays...but really just one. In a hospital where there was 1:2 ratio and the nurses were constantly on their phones and chatting, my medication was handed to me with bare hands, my requests to speak to a doc...

My situation is this: I graduated from an LPN program in 2012, started my first nursing job and a bridge program, and 3 weeks later my back literally gave out. I haven't worked in nursing since then. I had a spinal fusion, shoulder surgery, foot surg...

Hi everyone! Please sign in if you applied for Spring 2011 at Lanier Tech!!! Expecting acceptance letter any day now! Let us know if you got the letter yet, if you got accepted or not and what your NLN score is! It will help the group coming after us...

Well, you have to define what you mean by low. I know when I was in they were looking first at the entrance exam...so my guess is if you do exceptionally well (as in better than everyone else) on that you might..just might be able to get in. You ca...

I got my LPN diploma in 2012 and started my first job at a nursing home shortly after. Unfortunately, my back issues got really bad only three weeks into my first job and I had to quit. I had a spinal fusion surgery, long recovery, and then some ex...

I actually liked working there although my two week training was cut short and I was all by myself with 40 residents started day 3....(6 feeding tubes too). One of those jobs where you don't eat or pee....I still enjoyed it - but to be honest I've e...

I am an LPN. I hold a GA license but last year I moved to Idaho and applied for an Idaho LPN license by endorsement. I started this process in February. Georgia mailed my stuff to the wrong address (repeatedly for 2 months - why look at mailing addre...

The RN license was online the same day they issued it...October 14,,,they issued a correct LPN license on October 17 - it was in nursys that evening.......it's October 31st now and both licenses show in nursys.

So an update...I emailed the executive director of the Idaho BoN. A week later I received a reply from her assistant with an apology and assurance that they would look into the process. The RN license was removed from the Idaho Board of Nursing but i...

hi kkaycam, Yes, The Georgia board of examiners kept mailing it to my street address - completely ignoring my mailing address that was on file (the post office does not deliver in our town). I recommend you update your address on their website...howe...

So when I called about five hours ago I was told that they would mail the new license on Monday and I would see the change online within two hours. Well, it's been it's been several hours and I don't see anything. It did not get done. I have no choi...

Nope, I'm not near Boise...I'm in a tiny mountain town that's pretty isolated. The clerk is back today and she is fixing it..On the phone she was like..ok, no big deal but I think it is a big deal. Something like this makes me question the entire lic...

I called. The endorsement clerk is sick and the only person there is the customer service rep who cannot do anything about it. I just finished writing an email to the executive director demanding immediate correction. Thank you for suggesting other a...

Hello, I'm planning on doing an RN bridge but every school requires Idaho IV Certification. I looked and looked but can't find any! I'm new to Idaho - but when I was in Georgia there were iv cert classes almost every week. Does anyone know where to t...

The program is somewhat chaotic. Most nursing schools have a day by day schedule ready first day of school - not this one. The teachers were ok. Susan - the program director for Forsyth gives the best lectures. Debbie's lectuers suck but she is tryin...

Ladies, I just wonder what your scrubs look like. We just had plain navy Cherokee scrubs with a patch on left sleeve. Btw Congrats on getting in and good luck!

Keep us posted if you got in!!! Btw when they tell you not to expect As and Bs in the nursing program do not believe them it's all possible. If you get a B or C it's ok, too. Everybody in our class passed the NCLEX - I know about a couple of folks wh...

It's going to be hard but you can do this. The hour requirements have been cut this year to half. I graduated in May and the class after us had only half of the clinical and classroom time. Many of my fellow students had children, some worked. I wor...

It sounds like you are trying to create an account on their website again. Log into your existing account and then select schedule test.

anne, do not worry about that pop up because it's not an indicator of whether you passed or not. try again in a few hours. there is no pop up when you fail. good luck!

Jay, Good luck with everything. I can't imagine not knowing for that long. I know that I could not sleep the night after NCLEX. I was too anxious about the results even with the "good pop up" I hope you will get your results soon

Jayboyrobot here in GA it takes forever to be notified, however, although nobody has told us that, our license is usually active the day after we pass the NCLEX. I know things in Cali take forever, but have you checked the status of your license onli...

I didn't study much for the NCLEX - maybe 4 hours total. I don't think it actually helped me any. However, I did study the NCLEX reviews book by systems before regular med-surge tests and our school made us take an online NCLEX review course. I think...

Took the NCLEX just yesterday. Got home feeling good about the exam (felt confident, got the minimum amount of questions, and was out of there in 45 minutes), but was still hesitant to celebrate until I got some results. Did the pearson vue trick and...

If I remember correctly, the composite percentile score is usually on the right side. Look at your composite score...and then go directly to the right side of the page on the same line and you should see it! Let us know how you did! BTW I'm graduatin...
