CPR cert for LPN in Ohio?

Published

Is it required for an LPN to have an active CPR certification? I had to get mine when I was in school, but is it required to renew your LPN license? thanks!:bugeyes:

I have always renewed mine, even as an STNA the facilities I worked in would pay for it. I do have a friend that said where she worked she didn't have to have it and as an LPN you should know how to do CPR. The facility she works in is really rough so I wouldn't go by that info unless you research it. I know you can just take the test and test out of the cpr class as long as your cert hasn't expired.
