Re: should i renew my CNA cert. or not ? Originally Posted by GooeyRN I choose to not renew mine after becoming an LPN. I do keep my LPN license current though now that I am an RN.

Even though I will never work as an LPN again, I don't want to let the license go!
I'm curious why you would need to keep the LPN? You'll keep your RN current, right? So why the LPN as well? I have my PBT certification and CNA cert and am starting LPN next week. Do you think there's any reason to keep my PBT current? I think in order to do that I have to have actual employment as a phlebotomist, so that may not be possible.
