LNA Programs in NH or MA

[Christine83]

Hi my name is Christine and am looking for any information on LNA programs in NH or MA. I only found two schools (Lowell Tech and Holden) but both are full, so I'm trying to do my research for next year. I did ok on the NET test, but I plan on re-taking the exam. Any information would be appreciated, I do want to eventually become an RN so once again any advice or "words of wisdom" would be great. Thanks.

Here is a list of approved NH LNA programs from the state BON web site. Hope this helps!

Thanks for responding, I am going to look into a couple of the schools that you listed. I've been searching on-line and it's hard to find any place that offers these courses in my area, thanks again for your help.

I just saw that you posted elsewhere that you were looking for LPN programs. The list I posted before is for LNA programs, obviously two different animals. I'm not sure which you are actually looking for, but this site lists the NH LPN programs (scroll to the bottom of the page).

In Tewksbury, MA is Shawsheen Tech.

I'm a grad from Lowell Voke - a great program there.

I would consider taking a quick CNA or MA course before jumping in to the LPN - its quite a challenging curriculum and requires maturity and lots of studying. If you have young children it will double your challenge.
