Where I live there are several Vocational Schools - (that are associated with the high schools) that offer adult education in many different fields such as nursing, I attended a program like this and it was great. It was very intense, but I really learned a lot. Some even offer a night and weekend course for people that have to work or take care of a family--they work out well. Check your local phone book for adult education or call your local high school guidence office, maybe they can tell you where to look. Best of luck to you.

Call your state board of nursing, and they will give you the names and telephone numbers of all approved LPN programs in your area. Good luck!
