Starting lvn school jan 2017

Published

Hello, I will be starting N.S in January 2017 for my LVN in Phoenix Az. I'm going to Fortis College. Will anyone else be starting in Jan. I could also use some study tips. I'm so also a mom of three little kids. 2,3,4 I know my hands are going to be full. Any other moms? One here starting LVN school? I'm sooooooo nervous. :cyclops:

Hi!

In my 6th month of an LPN program and I graduate in July.

The best advice I can give you since you've got a full year to prepare would be to buy a anatomy and physiology book and a nursing fundamentals book.

A lot of programs including mine use elsevior books. You can get them cheap online.

You'll be doing yourself a huge favor if you know the ins and outs of all the systems of the body and how they are supposed to function.

Good luck!

Time management. I cannot stress this enough. I am a single parent and just finished my first semester of LPN school. I keep a weekly planner to write down assignments, work schedule, and daughters schedule. In addition to a weekly planner I had a monthly one that I kept on my desk at home with all my assignments for the month so that way I could keep up with assignment due dates. Make sure you set aside time to study but also find time for yourself, even if its just a bubble bath. Try not to get behind and reading or studying, space things apart, less stressful.

Good luck.
