This week we’re shouting-out the magic of Licensed Practical and Licensed Vocational Nurses with @TheNurseSam. She and Adrianne are bringing you the hot tea on this often-underappreciated group of professionals including what the LPN role entails, how Sam came to be a proud practicing member and, later, a successful entrepreneur helping countless nursing students.

Adrianne sends this episode out to all of the nursing students who are suddenly finding themselves thrust into online classes as a result of the global Covid-19 pandemic. She runs through her top tips and routines for doing well with 100% online instruction.

There are few times in life that are as nerve-wracking as taking a professional licensing exam, like the NCLEX. We catch up with our pal Jillian again at just such a moment. In this episode, Jillian is less than 2 days from her exam and it’s time to talk all things NCLEX. From pep talks to reality checks, it’s all here.

Adrianne hopped on the mic in the middle of the night to bring you this Nursing Uncensored Quickie of her top 10 tips for making yourself a better nursing student. These aren't the only things that will keep you afloat as we head into another semester, but they are Adrianne's most helpful, off-the-beaten-path pointers.
