I am actually about to graduate in 3 weeks

hi thanks for replying. i was wondering how you liked the program and what you thought was a good way to study and everything and what you thought was the hardest course in the program. thanks

I am planning on attending Rio Grande next year for the LPN-RN program. Several of the nurses at my facility have done this program and speak very highly of it.

That is great to hear thank you for responding and letting me know.

hmm well I thought the hardest course was the summer med surg(8 test in 10 weeks) but they have since changed that.I liked the program.It allowed me to go though and work while I did it. Clinical once per week in chilicothe and 1 semester in gallipolis(where university is located).I am happy to say I am glad it is coming to a close

Could you tell me in more detail what it's like? I have taken a year of pre-req's at another university. RGU requires Speech, so I still need to take it. I'm going for my LPN this year & I'd like to do their bridge program while I work and take care of my kids.

There really is not much to say. They will also tell you everything you want to know if you call.

Clinicals once per week...I went to chilicothe and galipolis.

I worked agency the whole time and PRN.

Test in my area (that I set up),onlne posting to questions posted every semester depending on the subject. Pretty easy as far as work load. Hardest thing was the clinicals and the drive but it was worth it to me so I would not have to wait on a waiting list. Im glad I did it though
