5. Anyone has attended Preferred College of Nursing at Van Nuys?

   Aaron - CCT RN replied to chloeremme12's topic in California

   I have never attended that school; however, I think that $20K+ is very expensive for an LPN program. With $20K, I was able to pay for my BSN and 1/2 of my MSN. Are there other schools in your area that are cheaper? What made you choose this school? J...

   LunahRN - Sorry for the delay in responding. I checked on the MedEd website and it looks like they only offered the discount until July 5th. Nonetheless, I felt as if their review was well worth the money and besides it offers 16 CEU hours. Good luck...

10. Scheduled my CPEN exam!

    Aaron - CCT RN replied to Lunah's topic in Emergency

    I really enjoyed the CPEN review from MedEd. It was presented by Melissa Weir who was an amazing speaker and very knowledgable about pediatric emergency nursing. It covered some topics that are not routinely seen such as volvulus, intussuseption, etc...
