CA-->VA license question. We also have a few other questions.

[RTDN7081]

Hello! Glad I found this place. I am a current student in the RRT field. Wife is a LVN "LPN".

We have a few questions?

1. In Virgina, will wife's LVN license transfer from California or what does she need to do (test again)?

2. After I complete school, she wants to go back for her RN. I see Virgina has a bridge program like California? Any details would be great.

3. Were looking in Abingdon. Looks really nice. But, how are the jobs? Is there better areas a VA with better paying jobs?

4. What is the pay scale for a LVN? Wife has 1.5yrs as a LVN and is IV certified. Before that she was a CNA for 5yrs.

5. What is the pay scale for a RRT?

Thanks in advance!

It sound like the jobs are in N. Virgina then? What are the RT and LVN making there?

Thanks

You know, I really don't know. We've only been here for a few months. I haven't worked in 8 years, and am starting a refresher class to help me get back in to it.
