Question L@@K should I upgrade from LPN to RN???

Hi I am a LPN of 2 years with experience in longterm and palliative care I loved my hospice job but it recently closed down due to poor management and I'm now unemployed and feel this is a great opportunity for me to advance my studies in something, so is it worth it upgrading to a R.N? I love nursing and I love law, any suggestions??

sounds like a great opportunity to spread your wings. Having the RN license will allow you to diversify your practice and open more doors. I recommend that. As for law, RN's can become legal consultants (many get certified to make them more marketable). But if you are thinking of being an atty I see no reason to get the RN license. Just my humble opinion.
