Thank you sooo much. I did look at that web site and it does have some very good information. I have been researching also other areas such as alzhiemers, restorative nursing, and MDS. I am so glad I found this site. Thank you again. Good luck to all of you new LPN's and students as well.

I am an LPN working in a nursing home in Iowa. I oversee the restorative department. There is a confrence in August offered by Association of Rehabilitation Nurses (ARN), I would be able to attain the CEU's but not certification because I'm not an RN. Does anyone know of any certifications for LPN's in Restorative? Any insight would be appreciated, Thanks

You can go to NFLPN to register to take the Gerontology Certification. I take it tomorrow at my place of employment. Call them or e-mail them though to get a list of what you will need to send. I went back and forth a few times until I had sent all they needed. Copy of LPN liscense, proctor,ect... Pray for me to pass tomorrow. I've been studying like crazy and I'm so nervous!

I want to thank you for this information.
I am returning to nursing after a 20 year break & would like to take as many classes as possible.
Have a wonderful day,
Debbie

FYI...always check out your scope of practice in your state. You can get certified in many things you can not practice!

Since then, I have acquired so many textbooks for cheap on the subject that I went on overdrive. Now, thinking about it...I will, in fact do it before the year is out. Does this consist of attending a class? Or is this all on line as it appears? I will look more into the web sites when I get home from work this evening...and I really appreciate your list of items you shared.
As soon as I settle down, I am doing the same...Actually, I did well in pharmacology due to my extreme curiosity with how meds work within the body...I'm a total nerd, I guess. LOL If I can just hang on...long enough...
I thought RN's had all of those priviledges for learning. I am glad to find this forum.
