Thanks in advance!

Were you always in the medical field? 

I'm uncertain of whom you are asking this about? Me?

30 years old. RN 10 years

28 years old, been a nurse for 4 years.

[NurseSpeedy, ADN, LPN, RN]

Age:38

I became an LPN 19 years ago and an RN 4 years ago.

My licenses renew on opposite years. CEU companies sometimes will not submit my units for both license numbers to CE broker. Good times!

37 years old, two years a nurse

Why do you keep both licenses? Most let LPN expire once RN is achieved. And most states hold you to highest license regardless of role you are working in. I'm just curious
