how many of youhave been hired as an rn after the age of 58, (with good backround as lpn,or none?)

Specializes in med surg, telemetry, stroke.

Yah for her. I too am 50 almost 51, been an LVN for two years and now just started my LVN to RN bridge program. I plan on becoming a great RN. I love my patients and being a nurse. 50 is the new 30, enough said. As long as you are breathing you might as well do what you want with your life. Don't listen to stupid people just because they are too scared to take a risk and follow their dreams. Time passes no matter what! God bless older nurses. :yeah::yeah::yeah::nurse::bow:

Specializes in Trauma, Teaching.

Alot of our travelers in the ER seem to be that age as well. Some are good, some aren't. Age isn't the main factor here!

Thank you all! I have to bring your messages to one of my classmates who is in his late 50.

Thanks again!

It is not our age but our spirit that makes all difference!
