Voc Rehab & hearing loss

Nurses General Nursing

Published

I'm currently an LPN with Meniere's disease and hearing loss. I have been approved to receive assistance with voc rehab. I was told (not by voc rehab) that if I accepted these services then I wouldn't be able to take my state boards when I go back for my RN because of my disability. Is this true? HELP!!

None of us know what your state is and your issue is probably not a terribly common one. It would be best to contact your state board, directly. They are the only ones who can answer your question(s) with accuracy.

Best of luck to you. :nurse:
