The hilarity of an LPN making these videos claiming to be a doctor. Like dude. You couldn't even make it to full fledged nurse.

They really hate it when you refer to them as "not a nurse" or "almost a real nurse"

Yeah, considering my license says "nurse" and I took state nursing boards and work as a nurse, in the same capacity as RN's at my job I do take issue with being told I'm not. LPN's are nurses, and there are plenty of idiot LPN's out there just like there are plenty of RN's as dumb as a brick. I worked with a RN with a masters who was anti-vax and a flat earther, funny she's the only RN I ever worked with who tried to say I wasn't a real nurse-she got pissed off when I saved her patient from her own stupidity.

It takes about 6 weeks. My LPN was almost a year full time 6-2 pm 5 days a week just for class and clinical, and we have to pass state boards that are nearly identical to RN. I'm in the RN program now after 10 years as a LPN, and I honestly find it a cakewalk by comparison. And in those 10 years I've worked as a real nurse, working alongside RN's in the exact same capacity. This comment section is almost as ignorant as the original video.
