I'm currently in a respiratory program in South Jersey. I was accepted into an Lpn program, but changed my mind. I felt the profession was under-payed and over worked! My only concern about respiratory is the job availability, with the current job market. What type of salary can new RT's expect? I know respiratory isn't as common as nursing, some ...

I'm currently in nursing school, but on a part-time basis. I still have young children who still require my attention and care. Last summer I obtained my CNA license. I was thinking of applying to Bayada nurses. Is any one familiar with them, is this a good agency to work for? Does any one have any reccommendations, as to what area to specialize ...

It's getting harder with my home life and kids to comitt to a full-time program, any advice? I know you can become a RN on-line, what about LPN? If so what are the names of the on-line schools who offer programs and what do they cost? Thanks for any recommendations in this matter. Lisa Goodstein-

I've heard of this program. Is this to become a LPN or RN? How long is the program, and how much are the books? Can the books also be purchased at a Barnes and Noble or local book store etc. Thanks and good luck to you.

I appreciate everyone's helpful input. It's very informative, a lot to think about. It's hard because I still have young children who rely on me, and most programs are full-time. I still have a few sciences classes to take for the RN program, but don't know if I can commmit to two years full-time. I need to make money for my family though. ...

I'm in a Lpn program, and a lot of my peers are switching to an RN program. Are Lpn programs being fazed out? What can new Lpn graduates look forward  to in the job market, as well as salary these days? I hope I made the right decision w/ school? Now I'm unsure, any advice?

I'm currently a student , but wonder if all the good jobs require years of experience? I read the recent Advance for Lpn's Magazine article-''No Holding Back'', what an informative article. I was particularly interested in the subject of LPN -OR Scrub Nurses. Do they still exist with today's recent graduates?  How does one become an LPN- OR ...

I'm an Lpn student in South Jersey. I graduate next year. I always wanted to work in a hospital for the experience, but I'm told they don't hire Lpn's any more. I keep geting conflicting stories. Some people tell me, I may have to get licensed in PA also-because Philly is such a big city. Their may be more oppurtunities in Philly. What are the ...

Maybe someone out there can help me? Does anyone know where to get a job in wound care?If so where, I live in South Jersey.

This field seems to be ...
