My aunt is an LPN for 43 years. She still works for the VNA. I have complete respect for her. I decided five years ago to go to RN school at 39 years old. The differences that she knows and I know our whole worlds apart. Meaning she knows completely more than I do. I just got license last year in june. I feel that I know the best nurse in my life is my Aunt and I know I can back ask questions when I need advice, which is for me all the time as I am a new nurse.

What school did you go to ?

Good deal

Kiks, if you don’t mind me asking: what school did you go to? The reason I ask is because I know you mentioned you went to a trade school but you hear so many horror stories about those types of schools. It would be good to hear they’re not all bad.

Excellent video. Thank you.

I personally decided that I want to go to an LVN program that has very few pre-requisites, because I don't want to take 5 pre-reqs to be considered. It was also important to me that I take classes in the evening and clinicals on weekends so I can work full time. Lee College in Baytown only requires their LVNs to take 1 class and while they are taking it they can apply to the program. Most of the programs in my area only allows daytime classes and daytime clinicals, so working even part-time isnt an option.

I think it is vital to do your homework on any LVN Program that you are considering. At Lee College in Baytown TX they mandate that all RN/LVN Students get the Covid 19 vaccines and boosters, no religious exemptions accepted. However, they are one of the few colleges that are allowing LVNs to do night classes and clinicals on weekends so they can still work full time. Also, once you graduate with your LVN, when you come back they allow you to skip an entire level of courses for the LVN-RN program they have and it saves you a lot of money.

Correctional nursing is what I really want to do once I finish school

Please don't think you where a failure , you stuck it out and you moved on and progressed in your career , so well done , you seem like a good , dedicated person. Greetings from Ireland. Thank you

So true. More people should start as LPNs. It seems like everyone has to feel like they have to go RN RN RN or BSN BSN BSN. It can be a huge mistake for a lot of people.

Flight nurse??? E.R. Nurse? Urgent care nurse??? Physical therapy Nurse??? Can an LVN do those jobs?

I’m going to school next year in August to become an LPN. I am going to work for 5 years in the field. Then I’ll decide if I want to further my education. That’s okay too, but in the mean time I know for a fact that I can live comfortably as an LPN. PLUS, I am a Certified Pharmacy Technician.

You can still work at hospital in the Med/surg dept as an LPN/LVN. This way you can get more experience. There are lpn/lvn that know more than RN'S just because of experience alone

I’m glad there’s people here that respect LVN,LPNs but there’s those nurses that just disrespect and dislike and just be little LVNs and those I fucken hate and God forgive me for saying that

Love that hairy chest

Question: what is exactly do LVNs do at a hospital?

Please can you recommend a good book to pass the test for LVN schoool entrance exam?

Thank you for this amazing video. Very informative. I am a practicing LPN in Vancouver Canada. Would u happen to know the process of transferring from canada to us license wise? Thanks kindly

Very helpful information thank you so much

Hi friend's anybody knows what to do need for LPN and LVN? and is it possible to without no IELTS or No TOEFL? Arkansas state ( I'm very interested but I'm new here 😭

I have been an LVN for 20 years, and I have my degree in Health Science. I won't go back to become an RN, and I'm satisfied with what I have done

How do you check if a camera from the pawn shop has problems before purchase?

where you a cna before you became a lpn/lvn?

🙂

Hi do you believe Private LVN school is worth the money

Yesss !!! I’m a huge LPN advocate!!! And around here RN programs will give you credit for the schooling you’ve already done and your experience…

People don't and it's terrible a Nurse is a Nurse rather LPN or RN.

Smart ass questions get smart ass questions usually the ones that ain’t got a lot to piss in are the ones asking smart ass questions

Forget the haters LPN/LVNs absolutely 💯 are nurses, I started my nursing career as a LPN in 2002, 19 years ago, got my RN through a diploma program in 2008, BSN in 2015 and MSN in 2018, I STILL use that fundamental nursing knowledge I learned in LPN school every day. Everyone has their own path and plan, not every LPN wants to be a RN.

I am in a nursing home and I am glad to finally see some honesty.Thanks

Honestly what would health care do without lvn/lpn especially in long term care?? I have worked with BSN nurses who needed me the lpn to walk them thru drawing up and giving insulin...💥💥

Retired from lpn work after 40 years...never regretted not going back for Rn.😍

Really thinking of going to lvn school hope you make more vids bro new subscriber here 🤙🏻

Can’t hear the video on my end but did you have to take math classes? And was classes hard

I had a question about when you said you’d have to retake all those classes again

Thank you for sharing , wish I could have been there.

There’s an LVN school very close to me that’s a year long and the tuition is $27,000. Is that the norm? I heard someone say they paid about $12,000.

Thank you!👏

How about a 30 yr seasoned CNA walking an A.S Nurse thru a procedure? In hospital, new hires, it happens.

I'm returning to school. 10 years on a cart dealing only with old people is enough. I actually didn't have many nurses ask me when I was returning to school. Do I recommend it? Yes. I found a number of one year programs. The exam goes from 'get the nurse' to ' assess for xyz'. All the lpns I went to school with passes their NCLEX.

Ive been a nurse aid and i have been in icu for 3 years and the watching the patient part. I dont need to know the BIS measurements but it can help if i spend the time learning it and writing it on my report sheet and letting the RN know if it is not whats ordered. It helped a couple weeks ago when a rn was busier with a mass transfusion. It also helps with time management and critical thinking as a nursing student. And even after all these years i always remember to pull the sheets off a patients toes because it can cause sores. Always build on what you do know.

Im a new nurse ❤

Look at my Tiffy looking 🥰🥰and full of knowledge 😏😏

This was awesome 🙌🏾

Love me some BMC

Im taking my nclex pn soon. I did the program during the pandemic and I graduated Feb 28. 2021.

What if I have a bachelors in a non science field and want to go to lpn school and instead of rn school in the future I may do occupational therapy school or physicians assistant?

thank you for this video.

i am a new grad nurse. My program was 12 months long. I am starting my new nurse job at a long term care facility tomorrow. I am so excited.
