    Licensed practical..what?

    fixed that I've heard some stuff as a CNA lol - "She just wipes orifices all day, what does she know?" Well, I can also strip and make an occupied bed in 2 minutes and I can take a mean set of...

    NCLEX on hold??

    It could mean something, it could mean nothing - results get put on hold for many reasons~ I know it's hard, but try not to panic too much okay? The only people who know what's going on are Pearson....

    How do I make friends in nursing school?

    Just be yourself, and don't feel put off if certain classes feel a bit clique-ish. Usually I'll greet people as they walk past me to their seat - Doesn't have to be much, but a "Hi!" and a smile goes...

    youtube Crash Course

    Crash course is great if you need a refresher of something - the A&P section is wonderful if you're needing a bit of a reminder as to how things work. I remember in a previous post you said that...
  8. Document and report~ If nothing's done, I would honestly start looking elsewhere. I believe that if the DoN won't do anything to rectify the problem, then they'll be more likely to throw you under the...

    How old is too old?

    You're honestly not too old - go get your LPN and have a blast doing so. If you're enjoying healthcare, keep rolling with it!

    Is this a good NLN PAX score?

    The school's website should be able to tell you; usually this is posted somewhere with the application information

    Is this a good NLN PAX score?

    The only people that are going to be able to tell you really what your chances are, are at the school you're applying to. I got a score of 144, while the school I was going to apply for only needed a...
  12. When I took my NA skills and written tests they were on separate days, about 2 weeks apart. Idaho (where I got my certification) wouldn't let me schedule it for the same day because you need to take...

    Communication issues in the workplace

    VivaLasViejas, your story is very touching! Thank you for sharing it with me, and thank you for your words of kindness! I always feel a little 'off' socially because I've never known what 'right' is -...

    Communication issues in the workplace

    Thank you so much! This is one reason I love this forum - I know that if I ask an honest question, I'm not going to face ridicule or be told to just "suck it up"...unless I really do need to just suck...

    Low GPA and losing time to retake classes

    Ask yourself what you really want? Do you want to be a nurse, or do you like the idea of being a nurse? Sounds like an odd question, I know. Retaking classes sure does suck, but if you apply yourself...

    Assisted living home from hell

    Document. Document. Document, and as Alex Egan said, file a case against them. I had an old LTC try to do the same stuff to me - They even threatened me with losing my job because I was going to be...

    Bed pans

    I love that the towel method was mentioned - that's been a lifesaver for me as a CNA. Sometimes if a pt is just too big, their thighs kinda work against them while they're on the pan. Extra chux...

    Lawsuit.. Discovery phase.

    Don't sweat it - my fiance had to go through this a couple of years ago. I can't say much on it because I don't want to give away anything identifying, but he was called to assist in a code. 2 years...

    Need some advice please

    Depends on the school really. Sometimes it's more time efficient to just go and do the RN or bachelor's program right off the bat - If I had obtained my RN and then tried to bridge to BSN, it would...

    Mandatory Influenza Vaccine

    I don't think OP is an anti-vaxxer; I'm British but live/work in USA and even 10 years into my residency here I still get the occasional culture shock. I don't mind getting the flu shot every year...

    Is State Approval Good Enough?

    If it's not approved, I'd steer clear of it. If it's approved that means that the school has reached a certain standard. The risk of hitting severe roadblocks (such as being unable to obtain...
