If you passed the PN-NCLEX, you will pass the RN-NCLEX. I thought the PN was much more difficult (LPN grad 1980). As a LPN you are already a nurse, so build upon that knowledge and know how. You are...
I went to the LCSC website and found this...MY GPA IS LOW DUE TO POOR FOCUS IN MY EARLY COLLEGE YEARS. DOES THIS OLD GPA NEED TO BE CONSIDERED IN ADMISSION? MY GRADES ARE VERY GOOD NOW. The answer is...

I too am a diploma nurse. My love of bedside nursing came to me because I was also a LPN. My hospital does not recognize degrees (actually they don't know I have my MSN as I took it off my resume so I...
I have my master degree, have been a nurse for over 30 plus years, work in a University teaching hospital (right across the state line) and make just a tad more than what they pay at St. Joe. But look...

Perhaps based on viability of patients rather than age? I think this is where government would be the durable power of attorney, and the concept of a living will would be a simple wish list. The...
Population and resource equilibrium by mandatory killing of everyone who reaches the age of thirty. Another idea could be that the person has to be fluent in the English language and be an American...
After I did some research…if I was not already a nurse, I would not hesitate to drive the 50 so miles, to attend this university… Why? The school of nursing is not haphazardly making up...
I came here because I was intrigued over what kind of steamy relationships were actually taking place in ER. Oops, Talk about misunderstanding! I think I'll go back up to my

I am having one now...I was called in...I was floated...I was not needed, and told to leave. I am home...my phone is ringing...or could it possibly be tinnitus? Phone off the hook, just for diagnosing...
