First of all, to clarify im currently working towards a political science degree part time in university while working full time as a law clerk. My political science education is leading me nowhere I think. Nursing can be it for me but in order to quit my job and go back to school full time, I think this decision better be an informed one.
I live in Toronto and every college I have research is offering something called Practical Nursing, RPN, a bridging course of some kind and a BScN? they make no sense to me first of all. What is a practical nurse or a registered nurse?
Is there a difference in the kind of work they do and where they do it.
What does it take to be a nursing student? Is there a bright future for nurses when they graduate?
Please help me out with the basics and any information that you think I might need. My college choices are George Brown, Seneca and Centennial.
if you are interseted in becoming a registered nurse and have completed 60 credits or 2 years of the political science degree you may qualify for the second entry bscn programs at york or uoft

Hey Janfrn, I was thinking about hours from an RPN perspective, not an RN. Sorry, should have been more clear.
