3. J. Sargent Reynolds RN program

   heaverboo2006 replied to RN2bemommyof3's topic in Virginia

   I'm not sure how long the wait is for the LPN program is now. When I registered for it a year ago it was only a semester but I'm sure it's backing up now because people don't want to wait for the RN program.

   To be honest, the program is unorganized but a lot of people said that goes for other nursing programs also. The only people that could get into the summer pne 188 class were those that are graduating in july because they dont have enough clinical te...

   I'm not in the RN program but i'm finishing up my LPN degree this semester and hoping to transition over to the RN in spring 07. It'll take me about a year once I get in to take everything I need. After the NUR 115 class (transition course) you are a...

   I'm doing my last class for the LPN program for my school. I'm taking PNE 188 which consist of PSY, OB, PEDS and PNE 145 which I think talks about how to get a job, interview process etc. Good luck everyone!

    I'd like to get a job in the hospital for the experience. I've heard the money for LPN's is in the nursing homes. I figured if I start in a hospital I can move up to a better job after I graduate with my RN. I was just trying to look at my options. I...

    Our school wears royal blue pants, white scrub top and a royal blue jacket (if you want to wear it). It's not the prettiest thing but atleast it's comfortable.
