help guide me! how to get started w/ lpn schooling

I live in wyoming and am interested in becoming an LPN. can someone answer some ?'s for me- do i need to go thru a cna course 1st and/or work as one 1st, will i need to attend any other classes prior to starting lpn classes(pre-req's?), what is the typical time length to become an lpn and how often are you attending classes, in general what is the tuition like? any advice/pointers on getting the ball rolling would be great- THANKS!

    Honestly, your best bet is going to be to do some research for yourself. First off, you will need to find Wyoming's Board of Nursing website and see which schools are approved to teach LPNs. Then, you'll want to look into prerequisites, program rates and lengths, pass rates, etc.

    There are so many different options, you'll get better help if you have a couple of specific schools you're interested in and know what their requirements are. So, start with your state's BON website and go from there.

    exactly what i was thinking tcgirl start with nursing board because you can look for programs in your area on net but they may not be approved, which is the case for a few in my area. if i had gone there i wouldnt have been able to sit for nclex and be out of money.

    i didnt have to do an cna before, but some programs do require it. miy program is 15 months but i have seen anywhere from 10 to 18 months. costs depend on your state and what kind of institution (private, state ect).

    good luck
