Back in 1973 it was an 18 month program. I worked as an LVN in a dermatology office for 20 plus years. I started out in a hospital. It was very different back in the day.. we did team nursing. It was awesome…. Glad I’m retired now .things are very different…

I’m a certified med tech at assisted living facility but I’ve always dreamed of being a nurse. Now 40 yrs old and working third shift full time I’m just wondering what options I would have to be able to complete this journey. Thanks for your input also. Great encouragement!

[@napturalsfinest]

I just got my acceptance letter! (12 months) It’s the longer route, but I want the experience and I want to make sure nursing is for me before I dive into Registered Nursing.

(: what should i be study for the lpn

[@aprillynn6221]

LPN school is very difficult. You basically learn everything that a 2 year RN program would offer, except it has to be done in a year. Plus they do the same amount of work as an RN with less pay. *But* on the flip side, it pays a comfortable salary with plenty of opportunities (hospital, nursing home, home health, clinics, schools, etc.) It's definitely worth it. Average pay is $15-$25/hour. If you're unsure, start as a CNA.

[@amandamarienp6485]

it def is a lot of work for sure, well worth it and yes I so much agree if unsure start as a CNA it helped me a ton too!

[@johnohara197]

Hi I have to disagree with your comment that a 'LPN' does the same amount of work as a 'RN' , that is simply not true ! I am a 'RN', with a Bachelor's Of Science (BSN) degree , all 'LPN's' work under the direction and supervision of a 'RN' and 'LPN's' cannot perform 'IV' treatment for an example , it takes 4 years to complete my degree and a 'LPN' course can take as little as 1 year ! Also the academic requirements needed to be accepted for a Bachelor's Of Science (BSN) degree is completely different to that required for a 'LPN' , as it is with a 'RN' who has a 'ADN', that degree takes two years as opposed to 4 years. An 'RN' will also work as a lead or charge-nurse something an 'LPN' would never be able to do ! There is a very good reason will 'LPN's' are paid less than 'RN's' and that is, that they are less educated and have less professional responsibilities. Thank you

[@johnohara197]
