A little rusty

Hello, I have been a LPN since 1989 for the last 5 years though I have worked as a assistant manager in a well known retail store. I took the job mainly because I moved to Georgia nad could not find a FT LPN postion that paid better than $9.50. I have found that I miss my nursing career and would like to rejoin the healthcare field. I have been trying to do some research on finding some refresher course in IV therapy, nasogastric insertion, 12 lead dysarythmia, phelbotomy. I have been certified in all these areas previously. I don't know if I am not looking in the right area or what, but I can't find any in my area or in Georgia. Any help in this area would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Hi,

I know that Kennesaw State University's School of Nursing has continuing education courses that are nursing refresher courses. Maybe other schools have these type of courses too? Check out Kennesaw State's link below:

Best of luck finding a course! Please let us know if you do.
